If your new to fishing and just need to get into some fish you should head to east fork by lewistown. You can catch tons of perch there. Small jigs and maggets.

Fished Saturday on the south end. Caught 6 little pike. Hit on minnows and anything attachedto them. Bite died as soon as the front moved in.  8-10" of ice on the south end, gets thinner the closer you get to MPC's pump station.
