Perch
Walleyes where schooled up in the bays on the west side of the lake that had muck/dark bottom. They were pushing around large schools of perch. Fishing a 3.8" sungill keitech around the active fish worked really well. Fish were in 10' of water in very large schools. They could be spotted and followed with forward facing sonar.

Minnows
Went looking for walleyes after seeing Brian’s report and ended up doing well on Smallmouth bass. They tended to be in 12 to14 feet of water around points and the entrance to bays. Used a slip bobber and kept the minnow 1 to 2 ft off the bottom. On average they were 2.5 to 3 lbs.
