Like Matt said, wait until the ice improves. It's not worth it for any fish. I have personally seen my brother fall through the ice twice. Once the water was only like 3 feet deep, but the other time it was over his head. Both times I was out on the ice with him and there was at least 4-6 inches of ice. Cracks happen, and trying to break a hole with a sledge hammer is going to cause cracking. I have been going out on the ice for over 40 years and I wouldn't take any chances. It's just not worth it.
