Post by: sled on January 24, 2013, 04:12:55 PM: I'll be taking the kids over this Sunday hoping to get them on some perch. When I was there last week couldn't find any. Last year it wasn't a problem but it was later in the year. Anyone now how deep the perch are this time of year?

Post by: deadyote on January 25, 2013, 02:54:37 AM: So here is a question for you guys. I fish fish lake during the summer and know usually where to find fish, but will those same spots produce in the winter? Also, if not then what are you looking for in a place to try and fish, i.e. structure?

Title: Re: Ice fishin
Post by: Skillet on January 25, 2013, 07:18:27 AM: Catch your first perch and you've automatically got the best bait for perch there is. Cannibalistic SOB's... :chuckle:

maggots, worm, perch eyes under Swedish pimple. Maggots by far the best for me last year, but perch eyes great.
I've been once this year and caught lots of trout, but struggled with perch.

Post by: C-Money on January 30, 2013, 06:23:03 AM: There have been guys fishing Moses Lake, but I have not gone out due to shifting ice, ice ridges, and thin spots. Just seems like the ice is kinda strange this year on Moses.
