Had to work first today so didn't get up until 3:30pm or so. Normally I wouldn't think of going to the berry so late but wanted to give it a try. Went to CCE and decided to walk as far east as I could pull my sled.
Ice was about 6 inches and I fished in 20-30 ft of water. Set up shop and as soon as the first jig went down, whamo, a nce 22 incher. The next 2 hours saw lots of fish and after dark I still got one every once in a while. A few came off at the hole. Nearly every fish that showed up on my radar hit and I hooked and landed more than half. I landed somewhere around 12 or so in the 3.5 hours that I fished. Not bad but I wish I could have been there at sun up instead.
Some guys near by said that they had slayed them all day and it was slower by the time I got there. Next week - Yuba and back to strawberry.
