Fishing Suggestions Welcome!

Yes open water, yes walleye. I fished from 14 ft alum had to dodge ice a few times but nothing severe. I assumed you had access to a boat when I replied the first time sorry. I launch there and run up river this time of year just in case there is a big ice flow and I have to get out quickly, I can get back to the launch before the ice blocks it.

Thanks for the replies! I'm going to load up the Suburban tonight with River and Ice fishing gear. I have a 14' inflatable canoe I'll bring to enable more options and will get an early start tomorrow. I'm going to scratch that fishing itch one way or another! One bait store said some guys were still getting on yesterday, but it's getting difficult to get on the ice since the shore is warming. The winds look like they'll cooperate the next couple days.

It looks like the there's a slim chance the Maumee will cooperate. Maumee tackle has a river update blog, keep an eye on that. It appears that most of the ice is out of the river and the temp has come up a bit. The water is still high but fishing a high river from shore is still safer than going out on sketchy ice.

Good luck and don't forget the pics!
