Went to East Canyon last Friday.As we came up to the dam there was nothing but open water.We kept goin down to the south end and found ice on the last mile of the lake...about 6 inches of good hard ice.Tried whatta crickets with waxies and salmon eggs.They'd mouth it but not very serious.Switched to just a plain #10 salmon egg hook covered with waxies and eggs and proceeded to slay the slimers.Caught 20 between two of us from 10" up to 18".Some had marks others were totally clean.Also caught one koke.Great day.Saw eagles,deer and plenty of turkeys.Also heard coyotes yippin all morning.Headin back up this Friday for more....hopefully!If you don't want to ice fish go launch your boat!
