Hi Dale The good Ice fishing for Largemouth bass continues on Island Lake.Joe the Grasseater Schatz was out again and getting lots of flags to go on tip-ups with large and medium Golden Roach Minnows.The minnows are rigged on an aberdeen hook with a small spinner for attraction.LJoe nearly had a very large Northern Pike throughtthe hole but the fish bent the hook and slipped back into the freezing water.Keeping holes from freezing up was a constant battle in the frigid conditions.Early in the morning the blustery frosty sunny and cloudy conditions produced a Sundog rainbow spot.I was searching for a snowrainbow in the frosty yet sunny conditions but no luck. A number of additional piers were added this year to bring the total to 31 piers. The $6 pier passes, which allow legal access to select piers at most Jackson Park, Burnham, DuSable, Diversey, Belmont and Montrose harbors, may be bought at Henry’s Sports and Bait (cash only, Wednesday-Sunday) and Northerly Island Visitor Center (credit-card only).
