Fished the HH area saturday and sunday mornings.
Saturday, the entire area was covered with skim ice about a 1/4 inch thick. Busted my way out and then back and forth to clear a fishing hole with a couple other boats and cast soft plastics on jigheads. Snagged 4 or 5 gizzard shad in an hour plus of fishing but that was it. The boats didnt catch anything other than shad either.
Sunday, figured I would give it another shot since the shad were around and the ice had been blown off. Fished from 0730 till 1230. Conditions were great with a calm to no wind. Same set up as the day before but since the ice was gone I did some trolling as well. Snagged a few more shad but they seemed to have moved out. I did get 2 solid hits while trolling the channels, one on an x-rap the other on a soft plastic shad, but after peeling some drag they both popped free. Felt good to be on the water anyways!
