Fishing Forum

Hi welcome all to the new BFT. I fished Aberdeen, at AF res. on Wednesday.  Still over 1 foot of clear ice. You need ice cleats. Fishing was slow for small pearch. I never seen anything else caught. I am going to try by the dam on Monday for some trout. Maybe small mouth.

Thanks for the report Randy, glad you got out and catch a few, I guess it's better than getting shunked .

Thanks

You're welcome Curtis. Good to see the new site up. I made it to the dam today. No one else there and I never did any good.

Well that's too bad, about not catching anything, hows the ice holding up Randy?

Ice is great. A foot at least. It won't last long now. I left after 3 hours of no bites because I wanted to try for some small mouth at Seagull Bay. But that area is closed in the winter. I have a new (used ) boat I want to get on the water. A 2013 Lowe with a 40 hr. Merc. And front trolling motor.

Nice, glad to hear you got a new boat Randy, how long is it?

It is 16 feet. I just licensed it today.

Thanks for the report Randy! So glad to see some action on the Idaho board.

Do you know when Seagull bay or Willow bay open and when you can launch from them?

Willow bay is open. Just Seagull bay closed.

I guess that means the dock by the dam is still iced in ?

Thanks,
Scott

I heard there is around 10 feet of open water by the dam.

OK...Thank you

You could put a boat in at the dam as of today.

Anyone know if the docks are in the water at Sportsman's?

No the docks aren't in yet. No ice in site.

At least not at the dam. I didn't get down to Sportsman.
