Walleye:
Walleye anglers fishing opening weekend should target structure in 4-10 feet adjacent to deeper water. Best baits include walleye suckers and fatheads on jigs, crawlers and leeches on jigs and harnesses, crankbaits, and plastics.

Northern Pike:
Northern pike anglers should find fish on shallow, weedy flats, in weedy bays, and near panfish concentrations. Northern suckers, walleye suckers, spinners, spinnerbaits, spoons, swimbaits, and crankbaits should produce.

Crappie:
Crappie fishing is fair, with some anglers still ice fishing and others hitting open water. Look for fish on weedlines and around structure in 4-12 feet, and on basin edges in 12-22 feet. Crappie minnows and plastics, preferably in pink and purple, will do the trick.

Bluegill:
Bluegill fishing is good, with some anglers still testing their luck and ice fishing. Fish are shallow on weed flats and around structure in shallow bays in 3-10 feet. Baits of choice include waxies, worms, plastics, and Gulp! baits.

Perch:
Perch fishing is good, with fish staging near or in spawning areas on mud flats in depths to 15 feet and/or in creeks and creek mouths. Baits of choice include crappie minnows, fatheads, fish heads, waxies, and worms on jigs and small hooks, and small swimbaits.
