Just thought I would give a quick ice update. We went yesterday and didn't get there till 9am, fishing was super slow. Ice was about 10". You could hear it cracking everywhere.

Fished strawberry again today ice was measured with my tape measure 16 inches. I fished the exact same spot last week was 11 inches. I guess its been cold up there every night but still surprised me that strawberry is getting more ice not less.

I too was up to Strawberry at the Ladders on Tuesday and Wednesday and found the ice 12" thick. A week and a half before the ice was 10". Lots of "noisy" ice. Access to the lake was tough with the pressure ridge at the shoreline. Parking lot was dry. Fishing was really slow. Found best luck at mid-depths with chartreuse and white jigs with a meal worm to sweeten the hook.
