    Hello everyone. Hope I'm posting this in the right place. I am new to the forum and wanted to say hello. I live in northern IN. and have only been ice fishing for about 3 years now mainly targeting crappie and bluegill.
    Anyway I am looking for input/advice and all around guidance on a DIY walleye ice fishing to lake Erie. A local guy who I met last weekend on the ice here said "all you have to do is just go" but I would like to be a little more prepared than that. For example safety, equipment that is absolutely necessary?
    Sorry for the long first post but I have always wanted to catch a walleye through the ice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Skipper, what you said about guides make me a little leery. My father and I are talking about making a weekend trip to Erie to get out on the ice and were just going through the list of guides on the DNR website. Are there any in particular that you would recommend and are there any of the walleye.com captains that run on ice?

    For this year we're just looking for a guide. That would be cheaper and easier for us than getting all of the requisite equipment for a once a year type of thing.
