Fished Holmes Creek Res. today from about 7:30a.m. - 11a.m. Ice was about 5 inches thick but looked very scary without any snow on it. Caught 3 bows but it might have been the same fish all three times. The trout were suspended at about 8-10 ft. and there was something on the bottom at about 26 ft. that I could see chasing my jig on the flasher but it would never hit. Tried all sorts of sizes from ice fly up to 2" tube jig but no luck. Oh yeah, I forgot to grab bait on the way out the door so I used very old, very frozen nightcrawlers. At least I didn't get skunked.

P.S.

I would share pictures but I forgot my camera and my phone died as I was taking the shot.
