Fish drop offs for browns in about 10-30 ft of water. Fish near the bottom with 3 inch live sucker minnows.
For lakers fish 20-50ft with 3 inch tubes in colors white, chartreuse, red, tipped with small sucker head. or fish with 3 inch smelt, live. The lakers will usually be near 8 ft of bottom, but every now and then, particularly if your lake has smelt or whitefish, they will suspend for high or be in shallow water.
