Went out for the early morning bite at around 6-6:30. Started off with a Texas rig with a 1/8 oz worm weight, with a 5/0 gamakatsu offset hook. Fishing inside the Lilly pads and slowly dragging out and along the pad edges. Managed to catch 2 doing that with #1 being a dink and #2 weighing at 1.4 lbs

Minnows
In the deeper points of Mallard lake, you can expect to find tons of 4-5 inch perch littered in every hole you go to. I caught at least 30 perch through the ice on a 3 mm ice jig tipped with a spike on a 24 inch ultralight pole and 2 lb test.

Bluegill
Caught this guy on a drop off vegetation line, was using the Megabass Vision 110 to draw it out before it smacked it. I was jerking the lure pretty fast, allowing only a 1 second pause. The fish are moving up in the area, so continue to target these drop offs to get one!

Technique
Soft Swimbaits (Lg)
Structure
Stumps
Fish are on beds and some still cruising shallow. While bedding fish can be tough to catch site fishing sure can be fun! Try rotating a large swimbait in to your bed fishing gear this time around and you might get a few more bites from those big females. Controlling the bait entry is key, so stick with a heavier set up to easily flip the big bait.
