I went to cranberry lake and then to lake musconetcong they both had 10" of ice but the bite was bad. i drilled a bunch of holes in shallow and deep water to find only three sunnies 1perch and a hammer handle slime dart. i fished on the bottom and in the middle of the depth and the fish were not playing nice they did not even like the marmooska with a meal worm that is my go to #1 jig. the high pressure was killing the bite big time today hope after the warm weather the pressure drops a bit and they will play nice.. lake musconetcong was not any better the weeds are not around that much like they used to be and the place is like a big 4' deep bowl with not to much cover for the fish to hide in making it hard to find fish. not much structure for them to relate to, i only got one small perch there today hope things pick up later in the week or by the weekend..
