Fish Lake 1/15/17

[Jedidiah]

9' FOW, south end, 2"-3" of snow on top of 3"-5" slush, then 3"-4" frozen slush and no more than 4" of solid ice wherever I looked. I fished on the edge of an untracked, slushy area and when I walked over to put the anchor in that spot my anchor punched through a an inch or so or crush, 4 inches of slush, and then sunk in about a couple inches of frozen slush and surely no more than a couple inches of solid ice. The "highways" are frozen slush all the way down but man, the other parts seems sketchy. Caught about thirty really healthy, chubby, colorful but small perch. They're bigger this year, pulling all the perch out for Yuba seems to be having an effect. Most fish caught on a tiny green ratfinkee with mealworm and another ice jig in a glow perch pattern (the one that comes with most jawjackers, they work great.)
