Fished the first day through the ice very cold day. Caught a fair amount of pike all around 26 inches a lot of small bluegills perch and a few smaller crappies about 15ft of water off a point. Next day deeper water on the north end of the lake 24ft of water a lot of quality crappies and perch very impressed with the lake for the first weekend fishing it.

Have cabin on lake and have done very well on Perch ice fishing previous years. (shallow) :) Walleye action has picked up in the past three years with memorial day weekends with the crew, having fair catches. Northern are not as common as they once where. Crappies are hard to find but still plentyful decent size too. Bluegills are huge and plentyful. Tight lines! Will post pics soon on tread.
