They did better than us as well. We had a late start. We fished the west shore from maybe 1/2 mile north of the ramp to 1/2 mile south. We covered a ton of water and drilled many, many holes and have never seen so few fish in any single fishing trip!! (using a fishfinder and flasher). We saw maybe 3 fish total over 4 hours...that's seriously the fewest fish ever seen on a fishfinder by us. We didn't have a single bite. Spoke with other fisherman as everyone was standing around shooting the bull (not catching fish). They all had the same, horrible luck. I wonder if populations are down as I doubt all the fish are hiding somewhere like the dam.
We spent the last few hours closer to the dam where we saw a few fish on sonar, but were skinny and small compared to the past. We only had a few nibbles. It was a horrible day for fishing. Ice was about 12 inches thick everywhere we fished. It was pretty cold and windy as well. We will be spending more time at Panguitch, Fish Lake and Minersville this ice fishing season.
