Not sure about bait store out towards Perry but Herbs drive thru on Catawba,and Rickards bait store at intersection of 53N and 163 have plenty of bait and tackle. Haven't been on lake enough this year to give report on eyes but I hear their catching some off Perry. Numbers and coordinates I'm not sure of. As for ice conditions I'd just suggest stay away from airboat path and stick to the atv trail headed out. I hear of some spots marked off close to shore with paint so be vigilant. Enjoy Lake Erie and be safe out there.
