Settlement report

Is the access to the ice difficult, I don't walk very well.
My grand kids would like it get out.
The lake is a lot lower than where you park and the slope down is pretty steep. Where I went down the "trail" was pretty ugly. On the way out I found a better trail that was closer to the dam if you park in the big lot which is about halfway up the lake. Fritz said the access is easier if you go down by the corner of the dam. But there's not a lot of parking space there. We mostly fished in about 16' of water. Right near the shore it was 12-14' and Fritz found a spot farther out that was 22'.

If you are looking for easy access, Verdean, you might want to try Tibble Fork up AF Canyon. It's a few miles farther than to Settlement but should only take you about 45 minutes to get there (from WVC). I'm pretty sure the ice would be thick enough. You could catch plenty of rainbows and maybe a brown or two. I've even heard of people catching grayling in there. Have fun no matter where you go.
The older I get the more I would rather be considered a good man than a good fisherman.
