Fished Winnebago this last Sunday off Merrit Street. Crossed cracks and ended 2-3 miles out. Thanks Otter Street Fishing Club for the bridges. You all rock! 15” of ice and another zero fish day. Located lots of fish and had 2 hits, but no frying pan volunteers. Drilled and jigged in 3 locations ½ mile apart. Used jigging rapalas, lead heads, pimples, halies, rat finkies, purists, rockers, moon glows, minnows, minnow heads, and wax worms in 4 different holes at each of the 3 locations. If anyone can add to this report, please do. Fishing has been slow for me this winter. Take it easy!

Thanks for the report. I think you've pretty much summed up all of our experiences on the system this winter. Tough, tough bite. I fished Poygan for 6 hours yesterday with only 1 gill and 2 decent perch to bring home for dinner (or is that a snack?). It's gotten so bad that I'm fishing smallmouth bass through the ice -- they're so dumb they'll hit anything.

Also, at the landing, the dude from Otter Street Fishing Club said everything that week was slow, but some small perch are getting caught with pimples and grubs.
