Well I wouldn't waste my time trying to fish candle. Family lives there and for 17 years have never caught anything in feb. March is a little different. I have tried the whole lake. Deepest part is by the island or deep bay( really rocky). You will need a ski-doo to get around. I fish there lots in the summer. End of june first 2 weeks of july are the best. Catch lots of walleyes then,never even seen a perch,lots of jacks too. I would go to monteral lake, have lots of luck there for ice fishing, but you need a ski-doo to get around.
