Hey 7wfishing thanks for the reply. Would they even follow your bait up or down? What were u using icefishin jigs or regular spring jigs. U sure would think that they should be starting to bite jigs here anytime now. They were showing temps to be in the 50's or right around 50 for like 4 days straight, but now I see that they pushed that back a couple days. Maybe I need to just relax and have some patients.
