A fellow shantyman and myself gave the lake an honest effort yesterday and managed to catch quite a few perch. Lots in the 8'' but some over 10'', one flag but no hookup. Perch bit small lures tipped with mealies or eye's, 20-26 ft. depth,south side of lake. Shallow water till about 300 yards from shore where we fished, walkout or sleds needed as snow is still well over a foot with a bad crust on top, ice is still good 30'' plus.
