Down east the main ice forms in marinas and off breakwalls. I have never heard of anyone actually going out like we do in the western basin for perch but they are hawgs down there!

I have 2 agree I don't hear of folks goin out on the lake up there. now fishin the marinas inside the break walls I will go up and steelie fish if we get good ice, there is way 2 much currents that makes it unpredictable. :P
the time you spend fishing cannot be deducted from your life...

New Yorkers go out on their end for perch, so why couldn't you do it in  Bula??  Of course there is nothing to lock and hold the ice like the west end, but the ice moves there too even with the islands.  You would need an airboat I would imagine.  And more than likely be blazing your own trail.
