Well did the trek in for eyes..and lack of snow made for some rougher trails this yr...but it was worth the trip...It was a cold morning at  -15 cel but got sunny and warmed to a nice 0 degress with a little wind here and there..so our 1st spot in 22ft of water and a hump or sandbar,did well in the morning there.. So as the sun brightened the eyes slowed down.so we hit another spot which was around 19 to 25ft in front of current area and ice got thin there and hit nadda..so we go to the next spot where the treeline shadows part of the lake and deeper rocky shoreline, fished from 30 to 35ft..and voila the spot to be..we slammed some nice eyes and so many little ones it wasnt funny(minnows aren't cheap)but it kept the action alive untill a big ones came,we lost a few monsters but it was a good day and as the sun brightened we found them closer to the 32 to 35 ft range we used jigs/minnows and tipups..Good day....
