Location: Menasha, WI | Use your electronics and/or an ice fishing depth bomb and try to find transition areas, the lines where sand-rock changes to mud. The transition lines are easier to find along the edge of the reefs but run all along the west shore. The best presentation has been #6 gold hook/crawler below a split-shot either deadsticking or slip-bobbering. I use my walleye rods which are a little too stiff for deadsticking perch, so I generally use slips. Keep your presentation tight to the bottom. My experience lately -- if you're getting sheep, you're too deep. |

| Get out on the reefs, we have been doing well on them for over 2 weeks. Chunks of crawler on a plain gold hook or small jig. Plenty of sheeps to keep you busy, but they are there. Bonus walleyes as well. |
