Thanks for the report, I am heading out Sat morning.  Last week I was in 24' FOW, caught between 15' and the bottom.  Seemed that I had to jig to get their attention, then hold still.  Many came up from the bottom initially, then stopped.  Several hit the jig on the way down, then stopped.  I caught 3 by dropping my jig and letting it rest on the bottom with slack in the line, then just randomly setting the hook (I couldn't tell there was a bite).  My catching was best early until about 9:30 or so, then slowed, and suddenly around 12, it was hot catching for the next 30+ min.  

This is the latest I have ever ice fished.  Sure would be fun to say I ice fished in May!
