We didn't get a chance to fish as we got a very late start and had been at Bass Pro all afternoon, but we did scout around the lake and talked to a few people.

Seems the ice bite has been tough. One angler reported a 38" northern pike earlier in the day though!

And as we were walking Alex walked right into a concealed hole and fell down. I told him to hurry up and get up because an aireplane was coming right us. He said "what the f**k are you talking about?" Sure enough, an airplane had landed on the lake and was coming right at us!


From Jack and Lidia's launch


Boss... The Plane!!!

You can't tell from the pics, but the airplane had skis attached to the wheels. It was very wild seeing an airplane land on Deep Lake!

Must of been wild seeing a plane land on Deep lol !
awesome pictures! nice to see you guys atleast getting on the ice...
Awesome pics Jay. I have been wondering about icefishing Deep. Can anyone just park at Jack & Lidia's and go out on the ice to fish?
Kick ass pic's I would have never guessed a plane landing on Deep
Cool pictures Jason! I think that there's an ice fishing tourney there next saturday if anyone is interested.
Good scouting Jason! Those planes are cool. I saw some land on Como and all the pilots went into a bar :shock:
I wonder how you get pulled over for DUI in the SKY?

Awsome pic's.
That would of freaked me out seeing that plane coming in for a landing there...

I think that idiot pilot got busted for landing his plane in Lincolnshire for a tennis lesson. Hes from lake Villa and the plane looks the same. I am bad at links but I saw it on chicago tribune, heres my link attempt-
