I just talked to a guy that was catching walleye at around 20 ft. I would have to guess that most fish will be in that range or deeper.

I've caught fish in varying depths of water from a couple of feet to over 50 feet. Many times the fish will be suspended somewhere between the bottom and the ice, but I've caught them right on the bottom too.

The bottom is a very good starting point, especially for Perch & Walleye. Lower it down to the bottom then raise it up just a little bit.

For crappie and gills its hard to say. I have caught them a foot below the ice before. Most of the fish get though are between bottom and a foot off bottom.
