Make it ROUND LAKE tuesday 12/22

Okay I have to stay closer to home, so ROUND LAKE it is for Esox and big pannies.  I plan on getting there around 8am (Silver Ford Taurus) and fishing the east side (farthest from road).  That makes for about a quarter mile trek on the slippery stuff so creepers are a must.  Anybody else up for a shot at huge pike, park right on Rte 9 and you're 15 yards from the shoreline. Bait guy on Rte 9 about a mile south of the lake but not sure if he's open tuesdays. Gotta be outa there by about 1:00.
