There are a couple of ponds around Billings that are loaded with Bluegills. I have never fished for them through the ice. Where do you find them in the winter? I have a few kids I would like to take out and catch something through the ice to get them interested.
The one that is closest to town is probably not more than 15-20' deep but I'm not sure since motorized boats are not allowed on it and I don't have a graph on my row boat. Now that I can walk on it I can check it with my flasher. I'm guessing I need to use small jigs with maggots or something. Am I guessing right?
Ya I'm looking at Riverfront. I was there yesterday at lunch and saw about 15 holes punched in the ice that were froze over but nobody was fishing.
