have not been down for a while but thinkin my cove is prolly frozen if i had open water i would start shallow and work to deeper??
I have a 4 or 5 hours of free time Saturday. Going to be staying at a condo for the day and night. Going to just work the docks. Without a boat, should I fish the deeper docks towards the main channel or shallower docks back in the cove. Love my jigs but... Should I get minnows. The docks do have some ropes/brush hanging but not many. Any direction would be appreciated..
The fish you release may be a kids fish of a lifetime!

Good time to get some trees to replenish what is hanging there. Does not hurt to have a minnow on a slip float while you are jigging.
Ice in the coves right now, hope it thaws out some before Saturday.
I like to fish docks out toward the main channel this time of year but start on the shallow end of the dock and work out toward deeper water and you will run across em somewhere down the line.I rarely dish deeper that 15' no matter the water depth and brush at times isn't always necessary they like to suspend shallow alongside big boats and lifts and will smoke a jig on the fall,god luck and et us know how you do.

I caught 8 all keepers. About 25 to 30 foot deep. Took an hour to actually go that deep and stumbled on some brush. Damn bubblers were going strong on the docks. All on minnows.
