I fished Echo Monday 12”+ of ice, edges where solid at the ramp. I was pre fishing for the tournament this weekend so I stayed around there, I could catch as many small perch as I wanted and kept some for catfish bait, but I was targeting rainbows and only managed 1 12” fish. DWR was out there trying to catch and tag 30 Rainbows, I let them tag the one I caught. They where having a tough time catching fish as well.

Somebody had drilled 1" holes and as I was walking out the ice started sinking and water came up through the holes. With the warm temps yesterday and today I would think it did not build ice. I had hopes of fishing it this Saturday but I think i have changed my mind. It did look like search and rescue had cut the thin ice and had done some training there as they had the area coned off where they had cut the ice.

Got 7 trout. 3 of them were good ones. My bow was 23 1/2” 4lbs 7 oz. my boy got a 23” brown. Looking forward to the tournament. The ice was good on Sunday. It looked like the edges had been soft, but had hardened back up. I think we are good for a bit. The ice is hard and clear.
