Fished with Doug Sowa. We fished out of Metro Park on Lake St. Clair, straight out from the flag pole in 7 feet of water. The temp was in the upper 20s with a slight wind out of the Southwest. The ice is 5 inches thick but around the shore line there is a lot of open water. The water was a little dirty from all the run off this past week. We used shiners and spikes but the shiners were by far the best bait. The fish were not very active today and the bite was very lite. We caught about 30 perch but we only had 10 keepers with the largest one measuring 10 1/2 inches. The bite was slow but we both had a good time.
