Lake Pelican outside Albertville(NW MPLS suburb)has 11" bluegills and lots of 9"+ fish. Find the fish and they'll bite on anything but the northeast corner of lake seems the best. Millacs has been slow this winter but the jumbo perch there should start biting by the end of Jan. 15" of ice on most lakes with very little snow cover. Bring your own plastics since they're not sold here.
