Default going to wizard, pigeon or coal lake.

The wife wants to go out fishing on valentine's days. How's the ice on these lakes? I'm thinking more of going to wizard or coal because of the long weekend pigeon will probably be buuuussssssyy

Default Wizard!

I've heard from multiple sources that wizard is doing pretty well right now, mostly smaller pike on the rod. If you're looking for something larger, tip ups and smelts/small herrings seem to be working. Also I would recommend a red hook shank on jigs if you want to be active.

I did pretty well on the pike there a couple weeks ago, nothing big but lots of bites. How has the perch fishing been at wizard?
