yes

 

I think if they get one more strong year class they will open it

not like before

maybe somewhere between 2 and 5 fish limit or tied in with whitefish

[Skipper D]

I don't think any one has to worry about me out there , if it can't be caught on a perch set up am out of there .

I have a little 1.5 or 2" rapala popper lure, I have caught just about everything on it. LM, SM, hammerhandle pike, even a few crappies! it was about $8 but well worth it in my books. I would really recommend you get something similar. oh yea I have also caught a rainbow trout on it.

[steverowbotham]

Herring, I see them on the surface all the time out there, especially in the morning and evening hours

[Skipper D]

Can't catch'em ice fishing either.

 

Thats because they go south for the winter Sinclair ...... lol

[Carp]

Fly rod might be a good choice for catching those surface feeders, but if they're herring, there's no open season, so targeting them could get you in some doo doo !
