thanks for the input.

Personally, jigging sweedish pimples (sometimes with a minnow head) has been the most successful techniqu by far. However last year was the first year that our tip ups significantly out produced jigging. We have a large group and we iced 12 lakers last year. All but one came on tip ups in 28 to 42 feet of water. Bait suspended 6 inches to 4 feet off the bottom.
