When ice fishing for this alligator use tip-up and minnows for bait. The best time for walleye angling is at low light so early morning, evening and night time is productive. Drifting or trolling slowly with worm harnesses and spinners also works. Stickbaits can be worth investigating, too. Springtime calls for shallow angling near inlets and runoffs and the deeper water as the seasons progress.
Ice fishing demands tip-ups with a minnow or jig and minnow combinations.
Weeds and largemouth bass go together. Plastic worms, jig and pig, surface plugs, and crankbaits bring the bass to the boat. Fifteen feet or more over gravel or rocks still fishing with crayfish, minnows and leeches or casting crankbaits over this structure will put smallmouth in the live well. This isn't really a bass but find a dock in the springtime and practice your plastic worm or a curly tail jig fishing and you will load the live well with rockies. They are bottom feeders and according to the season fish accordingly.
