Arrived at the Marina @ 8:00 but there was only about 1-1/2" of ice. Didn't dare chance it as I was alone.
Drove over to Soldier Creek side after passing a tent city at Chicken Creek East.
Fishing was a little slow. Only caught about 16 rainbows, mostly 10-12" and one @ 17". The ice was about 4" thick and turned into an absolute slush monster in the afternoon.
Almost wished I would have joined the tent city at CCE as I have heard it was a hot place to be today.
Guess I'll try the Berry again next week hopefully with thicker ice.

Yep, that was me in my wife's mini van. I really need to get me a truck or SUV but right now I have to use what I can to hit the ice.
How did you guys do and where did you end up going?
I hit the SC side and did ok, but not as good as I had hoped.
Going to try the Berry again in the morning.
