my experience this year is that you will catch more fish at cemetary point but you will catch bigger fish in the narrows... either way my suggestion is to use white/pink ratsos tipped with a wax worm or perch meat... put a splitshot sinker about eight inches above the fly... good luck

If you have an FRS 2 way radio, take it and monitor channel 7-0. You may be able to ask other people fishing Pineview,
questions and get pointers, while you are on the ice.
I may be there later in the day.

the other thing that worked real well is called a shrimp or shrimpie and it looks just like a ratso except it is a little bent and the eyelet comes out the top instead of the side.. you can get both of them from sportsmans..
