We'll be fishing from the PP east and north as that is what we know.
Going blind, no electronics but, that may change.
Rods, reels, line? Will our M/MH walleye/pike ice fishing gear be enough? Some of the fish we caught last summer has us wondering.
Jigging, dead sticking, bait, colors, presentation?
Thanks to all.

Well first thing I would do is invest in electronics something that you can use ice fishing and in a boat,kayak etc so you don’t tie a bunch of money up in a specific type of electronics.
Garmin 010-01550-10 Striker 4 Fishfinder with Portable Kit Is what I use and have sat beside others with way more expensive outfits and I see what they see.
Or
Humminbird Helix 5 Fish Finder Portable package.
As for what’s working locally, bait, locations hit up Kim Grey

They have accommodations too.
January is a great time to be out on the lake as the lakers are generally very aggressive.
The rods you have will work fine too spooled with 20lbs braid or similar poundage.
Good luck!
