Panfish action contiues to do well, look for them suspended in main lake basins, use your marcum flasher to hole hop until you find a school of fish, the best baits are gill pills, ratfinke, and ratso's. Try tipping them with spikes or gulp!
Walleye are located on a number of spots now, look for them on main lake weed edges, mid lake humps, and deep rocks, Frabill tip-ups with minnows is the best bait, use your Marcum Camera to find the edge of the structure to set your lines on. Jigging is also working for Walleye too, try a slender spoon, macho minnow, or puppet minnow tipped with Gulp! to catch walleye.
Northern Pike are biting well in green weeds, use a Frabill Tip-up with a shiner located anywhere from half way down the water column to a foot off the bottom, make sure you use a 7-strand leader so they don't bite you off.
There is anywhere from 13-17 inches of ice now on the area lakes.
Good luck,
Tanner Wildes
