Fished The Berry on Wednesday. The parking lot at the ladders had not been plowed and the snow was very deep. After a near miss on getting stuck in the parking lot (4x4 truck/good tires) pulling a trailer, I went to Chicken creek. The parking lot was plowed and in good condition. I rode my 4 wheeler just past tent city and fished. There were some slushy spots and the snow on the lake was 6 to 8 inches deep. Under that was some soft gray ice, with the hard ice about 6 inches thick. Fishing was slow, the bite was light, and the wind was blowing. Didn't catch a thing, but it beat the heck out of taking down Christmas decorations or working. I just needed to get out... and that was great.
