Bait? No! Place in Oak Harbor but have not been there yet this year???? Was out of Camp Perry yesterday. Ice was 7" till we got 3 miles out. Went to 4". Looked like fresh ice (no snow on it) & it's was smooth as glass. So? As far as Crane? Lets let this cold front work on it a little longer. Catawba ice is better, but always head due west (trail or not) 500-600 yards minimum before heading north. Stay away from point and shoreline along cliffs. Good luck & good fishing
