Dutch Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 I am planning a bit of a trip on Wednesday. Is there any ice in the ramp coves or on the ramps? I haven't heard how much precipitation they got down that way.

Dutch Posted December 20, 2016 Author Posted December 20, 2016 Got it thanks. I just didn't want to drive down there and have to turn around and come back. N. side of Mutton should be all dry. Hope to toss an A rig and jerk bait along with some jigs of course.
Jmontgo1246 Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 Dutch, Went over to Stockton today to get a few things out of my boat. Drove over mile long bridge and no ice anywhere. Stopped in at old state park...no ice and ramp was clear...the courtesy dock was covered with ice and the road going to both state parks had a thin layer of ice/snow on it. Drove over to the twin bridges area and all was ice free when I went over the hwy Y bridge. The warmer temps and sun was melting things quickly. Good luck tomorrow...I will probably be down Thursday to try my luck.
Dutch Posted December 20, 2016 Author Posted December 20, 2016 Thank you. I haven't decided if I am going to fish for eaters or bass.

Dutch Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 Can't get past the froggy smell that they have. mikeak 1
Dutch Posted December 22, 2016 Author Posted December 22, 2016 We decided to catch some eaters then go bass fishing. We never got to bass fishing. Crappie and walleye fishing was tough. We worked all day for 5 keeper walleye and 8 keeper crappie. We did catch 10 short crappie and 10 bass just to keep us going. I thought with the front coming through in the pm that there might be a good morning bite. What do I know. What little bite that there was quit when the wind switched to the west. The shallowest fish we caught was 30 feet deep. The fish were in or near brush. wtr dogs 1
lmt out Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Dutch if you don't mind me asking what kind of bait were you using?
