Was fishing off of west DNR boat launch. Ice was 8+ inches thick. We were between 15-22 feet throughout the day. We caught one decent perch off a tip up. Besides that we mainly caught them in about 20+ feet of water. A couple feet off the bottom jigging either a k rip or t rip tipped with spikes. They were not interested in spoons or tungsten jigs that day.

Minnows
Was fishing the flats near drops. For our tip ups we just ran blues, got a few flags but nothing every got stuck to the hook. We caught a decent amount of perch no keepers. But whenever they did come threw. They pretty much wanted it deadsticked and tipped with a spike or Waxie. We did have one hit a minniow on a spoon though. Bite window was mid day or right before and after sunset for us.
