Lake Harriet Report

[Walleye71]

Was out in the snow today. Right off the weed edge. 7 keeper sized crappies. They came in waves. The weather system didn't help the bite any. There must be a solid foot of ice on the west side of the lake. Didn't think there would be that much, only brought the hand auger. Power auger for sure next time. The wind had really blown most of the snow off the lake prior to this storm. Was surprised by the amount of ice.

Walleye71,

Nice job. How big were the keepers? The last few years I haven't found any crappies over 7 inches...

Thanks,

John

Any walleyes over 13 inches? You hit the west side?

I've caught some smaller walleyes and crappies this winter, but nothing great. All on the west side.

First time user on this forum guys/gals. Tons of good information and helpful tips to be had.

Anyway, I hit Harriet this weekend after not have ice fished for about 20 years and got 2 nice eyes (15.5") and a northern pike of all things. The fish came right on the weed edge in 13' of water.
