Gary, I've never ice fished sheridan so cannot compare the seasons. I can say that I have been spoiled by the great fishing in june for the last 3 years. Caught and released a 12 this year, previous best was a 8.5. Two years ago my buddy and I caught 32 fish in 4 days, 28 fish over 3 lbs, largest 10.5. Kept 4. Micro leaches. Spoiled. Now hardly interested in summer fishing, too slow.
Biggest difference with ice fishing is that on most lakes ice anglers are there for the meat, (bonk, bonk). Many "trophy" lakes are not open to ice fishing and for good reason. But I understand there are a few that do really well in their key spots.
Rotten: Probably... Gonna watch the weather. Over.
