The ice and fishing on Peck this past week keep getting better. Most places, we set up the ice was 9-10 inches, and there is a pretty good sheet of ice now running north from McGuire point, but we have yet to check the thickness on that newer ice.
Walleye fishing was good using mostly tip-ups and sucker/fathead minnows with either a green or white bead 6-8” above the minnow. Northland tackle 1/16 ounce forage minnow and coffin spoons, with a half minnow caught some fish as well.
The ice is getting thicker, and with that, a few pressure cracks are starting to pop up, so as always, check your ice as you go. Stay safe and good luck out there.
