I haven't been out yet this year and usually spear on Douglas.
I usually try the back end of the bays, try on the edge of flats that drop down into a channel or deeper water. Big part of it is water clarity.
This year I will be trying out in the bays a little more, and trying a little deeper. Either suspended fish over deep water or trying to find some deeper structure, 20+fow, so sit over. My thought is more pike are deeper chasing the schools of smelt around.
