Last couple of days have been rough, weather patterns have the fish moving differently. Always catching a few in the morning but nothing with any size biggest one i've seen come out of a hole in the last few days has been about 9" or so.

Right before the last warm front the lake was hot, couldn't get the jig down fast enough since the cold weather has hit it has slowed down considerably. This wednesday should be a good day, the next warm front is suppose to hit thursday so they should be moving back twoard the north side of the lake.

I usually set up in about 20 feet or so and bottom jig with either a mealworm or a finesse trailer on a size 16 or 14 marmooska jig, usually light takes so I need the jig spring to see them.

A few guys were having sucess on the swedish pimple.

Right off the bottom usually works, this morning the ice was acting strange in close to the dock, all the good ice (clear ice) has been cracking and airating so there is about 12" of bad ice, still plenty safe but it will get less experienced people nervous. I'll be back out wednesday might take tomorrow off, tight lines and heavy nets.
