I fished Sunday morning for my first time up there in years. I fished on the west side south of the rockpile...so probably Gus Rick point? I fished in about 80 Ft. and got one hookup about 15-20 ft. off the bottom. I lost the fish after just a couple seconds...must've been using a rubber hook. It didn't feel huge but i'm sure it was a trout in the 3-5 pound range. I moved south and into about 65 ft. and marked a couple fish on the finder but had no more hits. I had to leave about noon and that was all the action i had. Both spots i drilled were 7-9" thick...good solid clear ice. Good Luck! Let me know your secrets[] i'd love to learn how to fish the Big Bear!
