I wish I could say it was as smokin hot as last week. I took two of my boys and father-in-law this time and was talking up how good it was just a week ago in the same area. We struggled to ice 23 perch between 9:30am and 1:30 pm. I poked holes anywhere from 10" to 45" up and down a quarter mile stretch and basically found one pocket of perchies in 15’-20’ of water. Although I was dissappointed in the perch count, we caught twice that many splake which kept the kids entertained although the bite was mostly very light and usually had to jig them a bit to entice the bite. Since I had my 5 yr old I was hoping to have a repeat of last week where we could’t keep them off.

Couldn’t have asked for a better day on the ice! We were overdressed for the occasion and got a nice sun burn to remember it by. Edges were still good where we got on and the ice was about 12" of good ice but I would use caution especially around edges if you go.

Caught splake on our perch set up; jig(orange or pink) tipped with eye ball under a flasher and fished right on the bottom. I did see fish suspended in some spots but we were targeting perch so we stayed within bottom 1ft and nailed the splake. We also caught 2 'bows. Have fun and hope the weather stays nice for you!

Slow I guess for that place but most perch waters are not as awesome as that. Great report and hell ya got more perch than me a while back.
