[quote windriver]Be very careful everyone. I went through in waist deep water near the hatchery. Then another guy from the forum went through later in the morning near there. The ice is just too insulated and forming punk ice pockets in that area. I had a spare set of clothes so we went to the State Boat ramp area after that.
Caught 18 nice fish between 8:00-10:30. Five of them were really big in the 24-27" range. Then the bite turned off as we only caught 2 between 11:00-3:30. At 3:30 the bite returned for 15 minutes and we landed 5 more between us.
Good to see some old friends out on the ice. We caught most of our fish on jawjackers, small ice flies, and mealworms. I just couldn't get much going jogging today.
Be safe out there.

Nice Fish! Was that you guys in the double eskimo right off the jetty? Boy had blue pants on? If so you had a lot of guys envious of your son with the way he was whacking them! We were in the red dodge parked next to you guys.
