This is a good time to have a chance to have a great time on the cold water and the catch will vary with time and location from perch to steelhead in your creel .
Please stay safe and always keep your self and any one else dry and warm. A good snowmobile suit and layers of warm clothing will work.
Please only warm soup or coffee and tea in a thermos work great but no alcohol.
Fishing tool for a Erie winter angling trip are a spud a metal shaft with a sharp chisel end for chipping a hole in the ice or a auger hand or gas motor drive.
A small rod and reel about two to three feet long and a spincast open or closed face reel works fine.
A ice fish up that is placed over your hole and eight or six inches in diameter only so there is not a chance anyone can fall in your open ice hole.
A shield from the cold wind and driving snow will make your time on the ice more enjoyable.
This can be made from a old plastic sled you may have to barter from your children.
A few old buckets about twenty or thirty pounds that will store you tackle and fish or supplies.
These should include a tackle box of small jigs and small lures, I will have more on this subject soon so report back but meal worms and maggots are your tipping baits that are impaled on the hooks of your tackle.
While you are in negotiations with your children please ask if a fun time on the hard water is a cool opportunity to have a day with you children and enjoy there interaction to the best outdoor hobby fishing on hard water.
