Happy new year all! Spending a few days ice fishing Desert Lake end Feb and have never fished it before. Any advice on species, tactics for this lake???

Yep, limited out on Walleye, couple perch, no Burbot. Not complaining… but was using burbot tactics

Pb 25.5" walleye at Shirley's Bay last Tuesday. Threw it back for others, but kept 4 juicy jumbo perch and a smaller 14" walleye for the pan. Just missed several other fish that felt like good weight!

Measured bang on 12 in of solid ice on Shirley’s Bay roughly 200m straight out from the launch. That was Thursday evening, no fish, lots of cold.

Any update on Shirley’s Bay ice thickness?
