I have caught them shallow before also, but it is rare. Usually it happens when you are fishing close to the channel, off a point like Howbart. Or the plankton is suspended a few feet below the ice and they are swimming along that level. I have caught quite a few over the years reeling up my jig and they nailed it right under the ice.
The two I got on Sunday were at about 10 feet deep over 30 feet of water. I was off Goose Island.
