Ice Fishing Report for 1/12/09
They are slamming steelhead on the southern side of PM Lake using spawn or blue shiners. Fishing 7-10 feet of water on Northern PM Lake off the point by the Yacht Club is good for spearing and tip-ups using golden shiners as bait. There haven't been any reports of perch on PM Lake. The water is starting to clear up, so the numbers should be better in a week or so.
Smallmouth Bass and Perch Biting
A few nice smallmouth being taken on tubes and crayfish by Copeyan Park in Ludington. Also, a few good size perch in the Southwest corner.
