The Spectrum (St. George newspaper) just ran an article on Pelican. Maybe it could help you out?

I'm being sarcastic. I just can't believe that The Spectrum couldn't come up with something better to run in their outdoors section in February than a dated file article from Wixom on Pelican. Give me a break. With House Bill 187, along with ice-fishing season in full swing -- they run this garbage from Wixom? Give me a break....
Sorry -- I imagine I wasn't much help to you.

I have been out there four times this winter and fished on the east side and by the boat ramp. Did well in both spots. Any small jig tipped with nightcrawler has been the ticket for me. I caught them anywhere between five to ten feet. They have been hanging at all depths, so a fish finder would be helpful. They travel in schools and if your in a good place they come through quite often. Its been two weeks since I've been out, but then the ice was 16" thick with solid edges. It may have soft edges now, but the ice should be thick enough once you get on. Hope this helps, have fun. Wish I didnt have to work this weekend.[frown]

You fish within 200 yards of shore. the lake is not very big, but shallow. Its probably twice as big as Pali
es. The edges might not allow ATV use.
