what kind of structure do you look for when spearing. and what depths. and for depths what is the max depth you would go and the shallowest you should go.

I usually look for a point or some other break in the structure. I also like to be right next to a weedbed, or better yet, between a weed bed and a drop off. I like to be in 5-8 FOW but will go deeper or shallower depending on the action. Just my $.02.

I am always looking to get to a point on the lake where i have good structor on a few sides of me. I try to spear in 10-12 feet of water. The best is to have a deep water access for the fish to come up to the shallow water. Get on the outside of a weedline to be able to get the best action!

The last day of the season I set up in 5-6 feet of water and both northerns came from the shallow. Early on shallow, later move deep and later still move back up shallow.

Late in the season pike will run on top of the weed beds. when the season starts to run out i will put my decoys a foot under the ice in 6-8 fow. that is when i am set up on the edge of a weed line.
