Houghton Lake walleye bite was hit and miss on Friday. Got out on the Lake at 7am and setup in 11 FOW on the North West side of the lake. Holes drilling is taking longer now that the ice is 20 + inches thick. The bite was dead early, but picked up at 10am when I missed two fish and saw a few on the camera. At noon the pike bite picked up and we hooked five total with two over 26 inches. Afternoon was slow with one walleye at 5:30pm. Overall fishing was slow, but had a great time on the ice.
