Hit up the mile on Tuesday morning before the snow hit. 5 other vehicles there. Wind was mild early with about -4 temp. Wandered out from Cross Creek and switched locales several times before I found anything. Ice was sketchy in areas about 4-5" thick where I drilled. I could not get to where I really wanted to go as the ice looked extremely thin after the pressure ridge/current break. Luckily there was very little snow on the ice and it was pretty easy to see where you did not want to go. Now with snow on the ice it will be very difficult to tell where that really thin stuff is so be careful!! Caught 5 bows all about the same size and kept my 2 at around 18". I was hoping for a few of those 15 7/8" ones!! 6' deep with deadsticked jigs and a wax worm.

Good job Tim, ice looks pretty sketchy still!

Nice fish.

I miss summer already....

 

[tim-cos]

The fish was amazing as always from there. I would rather eat that than dried out salmon. When you cook it properly it retains the moisture and is very delicate. I have spots off Stoll but I would have been in the drink in a few steps. With the new snow cover I can't emphasize enough to be EXTREMLY careful if you head out onto untrodden territory.

 

[tim-cos]

Oh I almost forgot. I used the nils with the drill and I think it helped me verses firing up a gas auger and scaring all the fish away within 100 yards. Quiet. Efficient. Drilled 15 holes and my 1st battery was only down a little bit.

Man i was trying to be overly nice and still hurt some feelings.

Beautiful fillets 11 mile/south park trout are the best eating trout ever in my opinion.

 

[Rip Lip]

Nice! And it has been super cold since then. Don't they consider 5" or 6" of ice safe enough to drive on? I know the eerie feeling of walking on thin ice, so I probably wouldn't chance it either. Those fillets look money!

I thought the whole thing was funny Fordo. You're right the irony is ridiculous, then some other guy stands up for him, not even himself.
