Not too much luck lately on the bigger lakes so stayed local and tried out the river to see if anything would bite. Had tip-ups going with small/medium sized live bait, and also 1 or 2 rigged with bread & yellow veggies, for carp. Jig rods going with nightcrawlers, mousies, and mealworms.
Seemed like they're holding super tight to structure so I had moved other tip-ups to accommodate. I literally set up in and on top of downed trees and brushpiles protruding from the ice. Only got love from 3 dink bass in the same hole that held the most structure. Nothing of size but my 1st few through river ice and beat the skunk as well.
