Stopped at Mantua from noon-3. Couple dozen people on the ice, not too bad. Found an easy parking spot near boat ramp stairs. Started at ramp and hole hopped a little bit eventually found a couple fish. Caught an aggressive little bluegill for number 1, then 18 smaller perch. They were not nearly as aggressive as my last trip there. I could get them to rise up, but they stared at my bait for awhile before a little nibble of commitment. Used a clown colored jig with wax worm. All fish were caught on a brand new freshly dropped worm. They didn't like ones that had caught a fish or been chewed on. Ice was 4" with some water and slush on top
