The subject pretty much sums it up. I am in Eastern Idaho and I am gonna ice fish tomorrow. Is there anywhere that will likely have ice that someone wants a report of? I have been thinking about Chesterfield or Henry's but I like to eat fish so the 2 fish limit is kind of a downer. I was also thinking Oneida Narrows but I am not sure about ice conditions. I am willing to go about 2 hours from Blackfoot so that is a lot of places......Anyone know where to find some 8"-10" perch? Pm's are great if you dont wanna give up a secret spot.

Thanks for the replies. My Brother in Rigby is gonna come so I decided to hit Henry's. Hopefully we hit some nice fish, but if not at least I got out of the house. I will be sure to add a report when I get home and also.

If you are going to Henyrs, you can always stop off at Island Park afterward and fill your limit there!

OK so Henry's was fun. I fished at state boat dock got there about 9:30. No it wasn't on fire but was steady enough to keep interested. I have never ice fished Henry's so I wasn't sure what average size is. First fish we got was 14" cutthroat so we made that the line. Well it turned out to be the smallest. We caught 6 fish and went to eat at 1:00. It seemed the fish preferred night crawlers to meal worms. Also got most bites in 6-8ft of water.
After lunch we hit Island park reservoir and only had 2 bites. We went to the boat ramp before the dam. Anyone wanna help us out there? I would love to find some Kokanee.
