If you hit Strawberry a friend of mine fished Chicken Creek East and did very well in 15 feet deep water with white tubes tipped with worms.

[cool]Craig, that's my FAVORITE spot. So, it has hard water already?? Or, was he tubing? If it's frozen, then that's where I'm headed tomorrow!

he said there was 4 inches and he was in 15 feet deep of water, using a small white tube on a 1/16th oz head tipped with crawler. Lucky dawg for being able to go tomorrow.

My favorite spot too!! Ice on??
Scofield: Jess (wife) and I got there late and fished ~3-3 1/2 hours.
She iced an 22" cutt and i landed a 19" cutt. Landed 9 rainbow (mostly 13-14") and missed a bunch.
We were in only 7' of water and used rat finkees and wax worms.
Somewhat slow but the cutts sure were worth the trip-kinda like it used to be.
Honey do's tomorrow but if the ice is on I'll be at Chicken East Sunday. Last year it was miserable breaking through those first snow drifts. Anybody else there that day? Even the snow machineds were having hel....heck;-)

[cool]Wow. Congrats on the cut's, StillHuntin! I never catch those things at Scofield. Only rainbows. Those things elude me like the Walleye's at Utah Lake do.[pirate] Don't think I'll have any problem landing cut's tomorrow though.[] Last year I got lucky, and didn't hit Chicken Creek East until there was a nice hardpacked crust on top of the snowbank that led to the lake. Might have to bust through a bank tomorrow though. Good luck Sunday!

Geoff,
Great luck tomorrow.
I hope that the snow isn't like last year(i doubt it is). The first day I'd sink all the way to the hip about every third-fifth step and i was dragging a fish trap.
Please post (r pm)a report tomorow.
