Its the north end of the dam near the marina. Lots of guys go under the bridge for the deeper pockets.
Steelies, perch and pike.
Any news on wilson??

When there is safe ice we've caught browns on jigging rapalas and minnows.  I catch decent perch in the spring thought I have not caught them the few time that we ice fished it.  Wonder if any one has ever sat on the docks while icefishing thin ice?  Catch a lot of pike in the sunmmer right around the docks.
