Made it up to the gorge last Friday. Fished off of Rd.11 and found 6-8in of ice everywhere we fished. There were a few small pressure ridges but nothing that couldn't be navigated around. This weekend was one of those trips you just don't forget as the weather was spectacular all weekend. Fishing could have been better but nobody got the skunk. There was only a few pups caught that I seen that went 22in at the biggest. We caught a fair amount of bows in camp along with a fair amount burbot going up to 25in. It was really great fishing with everybody and having a good time. I didn't get a ton of pics so here it goes.

Excellent job guys.  Wondered all weekend how y'all did.

Sounds like a great trip, and great pics, what are all the Tri-pods for in the 1st pic

My buddy had his jawjackers mounted on them as to not have to bend over so much while using them. I'll see if I can get a closer Pic of them

Not the best Pic but you should be able to see it

Great pics and nice report, thanks for posting about it. looks like you had quite the crew out there. It must have been a bear to keep all those holes open with the cold temps up there, do you leave the outside poles in the water during the night?

We use the bubble boxes to keep the holes clear. Spent many years clearing holes all night enough that we had to make it easier. We do leave poles out until we hit the sack, which for some of us can be pretty late.
