i currently live in the simcoe region now but round here, the xzone swammers are golden apparently for the lakers in simcoe.
might work wonders in other places too.

I have tried many and had very little success for walleyes. Perch will go after quite a bit though, I have had lots of luck with the gulp maggots and minnowheads, just tip them on whatever lure your using.

They're great for panfish(crappie, 'gills and 'seeds), perch and smaller trout. Especially the Gulp ALIVE micro baits, among others. But for walleye and pike, minnows are #1. If you target lakers, plastics work great as well......larger ones. :wink:

Just with a jig of your joice. Preferably a jig that is heady enough to keep the bait horizontal.
Also, jigs with the small spoons attached to the bottom like the fin-tech ss minnow is ideal.

For eyes and pike live minnows are good in every condition, for pannies i rarely ever use livebait. Gulp waxworms are killer for perch and pink or white scented 1 1/2 inch soft plastics should get you some nice slabs. My brother caught a 33 inch pike right under the ice using a 1 inch crappie jig last year near stonehouse island, i should have filmed the fight he was using 4 pound line :lol: Just goes to show you need to find the fish first more than anything, once your on a good school a variety of lures/plastics should get you bites on a good day.
