Went over to the cross-dike this morning, afraid that we wouldn't be able to fish because of the ice. There was no ice there, but no perch, either. Only caught one perch and a few pike. Trenton Channel was muddy and full of shad.

Real low water by the Lake Erie Metropark ramp. I was churning up a ton of muck on the way back, even with my outboard tilted in the highest possible setting.
