Didn't get out but two times. Just not enough ice for me. Went last Thursday, but had to search where we could get on. Been out on Mississippi chasing wally two times no luck. Ten sauger one day, skunked last Sunday under Pool 13 up by Clinton, IA. Water is still 33°.....ice flowing over the dam.
Ah retired @ 50

We are by Muscatine and got out quite a few times but it's not coming back out now. We had a few really good days on the ice including a tournament win. (it was a farm pond so nothing huge)
We fixed up my FIL's old jon boat and I really want to try using it for walleye on the big river but I've never been on a boat on the Miss yet. I've had it out once on a local lake just to make sure everything worked like it should and it did...

Mnpat: "The best ice fishing of the year is coming up soon. Long days warm temps and active fish. "
For those that have ice....we have none unless I head north at least an hour or two. But yes, late ice is great...if you have it. We went from good to no ice in 2 days

Yeah lots of great trout fishing to be had up north still, but with walleye closed and warm temps for much of MN, I'm probably done ice fishing as well.
We're out on pool 2 up here in the twin cities. C&R only. The In-Depth Outdoors tv show on Fox Sports did an episode of open water walleye fishing a few weeks ago and it's been a zoo ever since. The trailer parking at the main DNR access in south saint paul was FULL this past weekend.

yes my equipment is put away , shacks off the lake back in the driveway.
me and my group had a little bit of a down season , only about 7 walleyes in that 18"-21" range with one #8-2 . caught a few pike , one went over 14lbs.
i dont do much crappie fishing myself , so on to soft water opener fishing.

Did very well from early ice through Christmas. Was definitely slower in January and February. I got skunked last weekend fishing for rainbow and lakers. Excited to get to the BWCA to catch some Lakers and Brookies in a little over a week. Don't plan to put away the gear until the ice is too poor or trout season ends.
