Fished a bay for 4 hours, drilled and drilled and moved and moved. Did see a single fish with the aqua vu. Didn't see any pan fish on the ice, only saw 3 pike caught, one was nice! Fished from sunrise till noon. Took a lunch break then came back to fish the boat launch at the north end of the lake, saw 1 pike caught.
