Arrived about 9:15 and left at 1:30. I caught about 15 or so perch and no trout. I went several hundred yards out from the boat ramp and set up in 60 FOW. Fish came up to meet almost every drop regardless of lure/bait. All but 2 of the perch were under 4" in length. Had over 100 hits but couldn’t set the hook on the little nibblers.
I could not see any open water anywhere looking from the boat ramp. There were at least a dozen folks on the west side along the freeway. Talked to 2 of them as they walked back and they said they caught one perch between the 2 of them. Poor reports from a couple others we talked to walking off.
Ice is about 4" at the most. A skiff of snow on top and NO slush anywhere that I saw. Temp at arrival was 9F and about 23F when I left.
Used tungsten tear drop jigs and Hali’s. Tipped with spikes, waxies, & red worms. All worked.
