    use dynamite
    LOL! Actually, I'm interested in this too. Curious to see what people post. If you live in Clarion, I live in New Bethlehem. It's only about 20 mins from you. We should go fishing some time. How well do you know Kahle?

    i dont fish for em but i figure i have a peg on catching them . find your drop offs/shelves for the eyes using jigging spoons and raps for eyes , muskie can be had on weed edges with crappie and bluegill shallow on tip ups , and pike depending what lakes your targeting them at like big creek bait or small panfish also on tipups ... trial and error man should def get some fish

    I was kinda thinking big bait on a tip up but I am worried the bait would keep settin the tip up off. And when ever I fish the toothy critter with bait it's always alive in the summer but would using dead bait be any good?

    we use frozen smelt from supermarket on tipups. on bottom, suspended few ft. above bottom ,or, like pork says, right under the ice. (for pike, that is.

    For most places try using some small crappies if you can get them pike really like crappies because they can scale them easily. Best bets are at Eaton using dink perch, I always get into a lot of them
