Headed out to RP in this terrible weather. For sure I hate hauling my gear in fresh powder snow. Just a quick report. Caught 15-20 bows 12-14" and one 16" few perch nibbled on the bottom but basically all of the fish were biting light not comparing the other trips I've made . Had a few big guns on and come off right at the hole. Ice is 16" thick edges are about 1-2 ft of thin weak ice with at least 1" thick. Snowed a good 2-3" of fresh snow and about 4" of snow in total on the lake right now.
There were just about 4 groups on the lake the whole day but they basically left after fishing 2-3 hrs then the whole lake for my self. Looks like RP is treating my really nice this year especially on the ice [angelic].
Just a helpful tip. If you have your sled full from the bottom to the top wrap a sleeping bag and tuck it in really tight. No more problems with loosing fishing gear.
