BW trip - bait and spot advice (Pike Lake)

I'm heading up to the BW Thursday (going to be muggy!)- north of Vermillion to Pike lake. It is a shallow lake (18' max) and we will be bringing live bait. We usually bring about a gross of minnows so that they survive the trip. Never have done well on that lake with leeches. Thinking about crawlers...

Anyone with some advice?

Any spots you would suggest? Unfortunatly contour maps are not available for this lake - not on the DNR site, not in McKenzie or Fisher, and not on my Navionics chip. We will be bringing a portable depth finder so hopefully we can find some sunken reefs but it is a fairly big lake...

Thanks

Bill

      Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology.  Battery powdered items will always have their place.  I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!!  That would be a bit loud and smokey!

      That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty.  Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.   As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows,  you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
