Fished in 20' of water. Ice was good at 7" or so, no slush and 4" of fresh snow. The bite was best early, but we still caught fish until we left around 1:00. All rainbows today. Most in the 12-14" range, a few larger including one plump 19"er.
Thanks for the report, sounds like you did good, sounds like the water level is coming up there. What color jigs worked best for you?
White, white pearl, glow and chartreuse tipped with wax worms. Didn't seem too picky, but at times the bite was lite. Only one I recall catching higher in the water column, the rest came off the bottom.
