So this may be a really crazy question but has the ice come off any lakes with all this warm weather? I wasn’t planning a launch until the new year but hey, I’ll go Sunday if something is open. Thanks
I took a drive up to Edith today to see if I could go boating tomorrow. It’s still iced over, however looked pretty sketchy for ice fishing. There was one tent setup on the far south edge in the shallows by the dock. Maybe try Pat or Morgan lakes?
Hard water? Or open water? I was going to take the kids for some ice fishing, but the warm weather scratched that. I’d still like to go, any suggestions? What have you guys found today?
Took a trip into Pinaus to hit the ice… arrived just before sunrise and was greeted by three otters happily swimming around in open water. Damn! Bit of ice on the far west end but the rest was open. Anyway, ended up stopping in at campbell on the way home. Lots of ice. I think any of the smaller lakes that were previously iced over will be fine. Still a few options if you like open water though in the bigger deeper lakes… saw a boat out on Monte when I drove past.
If you’re going to a more remote lake bring a chainsaw… quite a few trees down from the wind last week.
Also, the back roads are extremely icy. Anywhere there was packed snow there is now glare ice.
Thanks. Went to Surplus Herby’s instead. Got myself an ice fishing tent for the future.
Heading to chicken ranch to get some bookies in the am. Can’t wait to pull some slabs through the ice. I’ll keep ya posted.
Black lake December 6 …….
Fished stump this morning for a few hours cold and calm. Didn’t fly fish to cold on the hands , pulled hard ware for kokanee managed to boat three 2+ pound kokanee before the wind kicked up! South end is iced up.
Wayne that’s frikin awesome! Most peeps around here are only thinking hard water right now. Thank for the report!
Hey bc flyguys any word on monte?
I’m assuming it’s still open water?
I want to dump my boat in on Boxing Day.
Kokanee out of the boat around this time last year was good. But I don’t want to make a useless trip if it’s skimed over!
Thanks
Monte is still open. One boat on it yesterday with only a very light skiff of ice around the edge.
Right on thanks for the info
Fish biting good today at Pinantan.
Worms and a red glow hook did the trick.
Fresh fish for supper was awesome!!
Thanks Gene!
Can’t believe another year is done! Thanks to everyone that contributed in 2014!
Let’s keep it up here in 2015 …….
