The edges on Starv are getting very soft. I wanted to fish it two weeks ago but decided against it when we tested the ice out as far as we could reach with a hand auger and the auger pushed through the slush. We probably could have made it out on the ice with a long plank but the ice out further looked sketchy. Slushy with pools of standing water. The ice across the entire lake looks very rotten now. I would recommend Strawberry.

Attached are some photos I took of the Knight Hollow/Diversion area last week.

I have same report. We tried to fish open water edges on Saturday, but with a recent cold spell, it was all frozen over with a thin sheet of ice. So you can't ice or shore fish Starvation for now. Temps in the basin are reaching 50 now and the wind has begun so open water is not far away.
On another note, the Strawberry River out of Starvation is running at extremely low levels.
