Try to set up in an area that has a relatively good drop in a short distance, fish the entire shelf, top,mid and bottom.

Lots of banging on the bottom, slight twitches, then feel up and see what comes up for a looksie...

Seems to be most lakers are cruising the bottoms right now so drop a line on the bottom with a 5-6” herring

The thing that gets me is they play cat and mouse sometimes which keeps you interested but in reality you might be better off to move and hunt down a more active area....run and gun style produces more fish this time of the season.

Good luck.


Ohhh if you see Matt out there just follow him around he likes company

Thanks for the advice. We found fish around 80 feet. Missed a bunch but managed to ice one laker. We had a pretty steep learning curve and I’m sure there are many more lessons to be learnt with the lakers. Tube jigs were not working for us. The one we caught was on a spoon.
