Fished sbh last night and has nothing not even a bit and try 5 different spots also I try every bait in my bucket. I try waxies, gulp alive, and power bait I guess I should have got some minnows. Am I ding something wrong?

I tried fishing last night as well "I was the one drilling holes over by the pipes" I didn't catch anything… The night bite just seems to be off. Morning and day time seem to be the best.

Was there last night as well, was in close to shore by ramp.  Managed 4 dink gills and a 8" perch with the biggest belly I have ever seen...full of eggs I would guess.  Had to work HARD just for them.  Used sm chartruse jig with 3 spikes..they were laying on the bottom, they wanted it brought up 4" then dead sticked.  Thats the best tactic I found all night.  Like anything work hard at it, change bait and presentation and see how the react.

Fished the SBH today and it was sure busy, seen a lot of people catching fish but far and few on keepers. caught a nice 28" pike and 1 nice perch... seems to be a great time for young anglers.

Fished SBH from 9-2 and caught fish pretty much nonstop but of course they were so small that when you hooked a 6" perch you almost couldnt help but think it most certainly should go in the bucket...however the weather was perfect water clarity is improving id say about 4ft visibility...was able to get the woman out for a couple hours to enjoy some sunshine and a little action...patience is a virtue and think big and you may get a nice treasure every so often. ...ice was pretty uniform from freezer queen wall to deep inside harbor at a steady 8"..little slick in spots bring creepers.

It will hold just watch the shore ice.

Seemed ok when I left today at 430 but I would still be cautious on sunday as it was ankle deep of water 5 yards out
When hell freezes over, i'll be ice fishing there too!!

Fished along Freezer Queen until the wind and rain started yesterday afternoon. Caught perch all day in 10 to 12 '. Brought home a dozen over 10". Caught quite a few that were about 2" though.

I spoke with a few guys that were on their way back from there last week. They had some nice perch. They said the bite was slow and you had to weed through the small ones. They were using spikes.
