Fished Green Friday and Saturday night with marginal success. Took about 25 each after several hours. Best fishing was from 10:30-11:30 PM both days with waxies and spikes both working on Hali jigs and teardrops. Had to fish State Park as West ramp still has some open spots and very thin ice.

My buddy went up Sunday night and got 100 by himself so I really think the tremendous pressure pushed those fish out. I may try it during the week.

Green Lake is between Karlin and Interlochen. It is sister lakes with Duck lake. If you want info on how to get there tell me where you are coming from and I will post directions
