Fished from 9-1pm today with some nice weather moving in. Caught one perch. 15 other folks on the ice. Lots of people drilling holes and moving about. Had to try it once. Grass shrimp seemed to be the favorite bait. I have only had success getting trout with such bait. Try Try Try.

Thanks for Posting! I am looking forward to getting some late ice gills. Thanks for keeping us all informed. I have never used shrimp but friends have told me that is what they use and they are great.

I fished on the north part of Osakis yesterday afternoon. The weather was awsome which made for lots of water on the ice and lots of open holes. I hole hoped and managed to catch 7 nice gills. It looked like people around were doing about the same. Grass shrimp seemed to be the ticket.
About 5 I moved down the lake and set up for Crappies in about 34'. They started to bite about 6:30 and didn't stop until about 8. I kept 9 and threw back about the same amount because they were too small. Minnows worked the best.
All and all it was a great day fishing. Did I mention the weather was awesome?

Hey Buzzer, I just came back from Osakis, we have been catching some crappies by buck point. I tried out by the narrows tonight and came up empty handed. Drilled lots of holes and found sunnies and crappies galore, we watched them on the camera and they would just barely nibble til the bait was off. The crappies wouldn't even attempt to bite. Can't believe how many there were down there and still come home empty handed. I guess a few are better that none. Some of the crappies caught by buck point are Red lake sized, 1-1 1/2 pounds, but probably average a little less than 3/4. Good luck, hope this helps.
