That's a great way to fish for Pike up here OZ. when the ice starts breaking up, throw a dead shiner on the ice,and drag it off the edge. The pike hang under the ice waiting for the frozen ones to fall out of the melting ice.
I bet it is, his uncles dock broke a cable and they dropped the lake about 7 feet not long after it iced over. He saw the shad when he was trying too help secure the dock until the ice is gone.
