Also The Vermillion River right out in front of the city boat ramp is a great place for Steelhead on a day trip.

as far as walleye if the lake freezes we will hit Crane Creek .

my group does a trip to Jacks landing Fletcher s pond near Alpena Michigan Presidents day weekend good gill -Pike and perch .. they have mobile homes for rent right on the water. would love to increase the size of our group that weekend if you can find a few people to do it . you can contact them by google there number, it is a cheap trip we spend more on gas than we do for the rest of trip we do all cooking etc right there.

Great web site to follow is iceshanty.com for ice fishing
I have been fishing "the flood" for 12 years now. We try to go every Memorial Day weekend. You might want to check out Fletchers Landing right around the corner to the west. We hammered the largemouth up in the northwest bay this past year. For the weekend we had 64 keepers with 2 21inchers. We got checked buy MDR last year and were told that all the boats that they were checking had 1 to 2 keepers. We were already working on are second boat limit for the day. All fish were kept and released. Send me a PM for the secret bait. All fish were caught on the same.
