You'd be better off, Pat, launching at the Ross Creek ramp at the N end and working around that first bend to the S.  Both smallies & perch in that bay a tad bigger than what you got.  Same deal --- in or just outside the stick-ups in 5-7'.  And I've found out the hard way over the last couple of years that the bigger/keeper perch will hit a 4" grub, specifically that 176 Yamamoto.  Fish small bass stuff like the kuttail worm and you'll generally avoid the dinks.  I used to do the slip-bobber thing and fish vertically with small ice fishing stuff, even with perch belly slivers.
No more.  Small bass plastics fished slow, horizontal and on bottom.
