Didn't do quite that well, and it took us from about 8 am until the sun went down, but two of us caught maybe 25 perch and a couple 11-12" trout.
We fished north of the boat ramp a couple hundred yards, struck out for several hours (except for the trout and one tiny perch) in 25-35 feet of water, moving around and sharing info with others. Some people catching a few, most not doing too well. I could see a few fish on the bottom with my new cheapo sonar, but nada.
Eventually, about 2:30 pm, we randomly drilled a hole on our way back, and hit a feeding school at 22'. Great action, lots of bites both hard and subtle for the next couple hours. They hit all kinds of stuff, from small teardrop jigs to some Hali-types, a silver CastMaster, and some bigger jigs, tipped with waxies, perch, and angleworms.
