I'll be heading to Devils Lake on the 12-14. Just wondering if the walleyes sit in the trees gettin ready for the spawn. Or do they sit deep till after ice out.

Through the ice I setup a few tip ups and drill a number of extra holes.  I then hole hop the extras.  Buckshot rattle spoons and Chubby Darters do well.  They are in the trees pretty much all year.  After/during spawn I'd stick to the windy sandy/rocky shorelines.

Also, sunken roads and train tracks are worth a try.
