Green turtle today was cold, windy, and the fishing was not good at all.  Between my buddy and I we caught 3 bass and a pickeral.  There was only one other group fishing and they cut out real early.  Ice is about 8 inches thick with a couple inches of snow on top.  We would have been better off fishing shepherd lake by the aerators to target some big trout.
