Anybody got any Fish Lake reports? I am taking the family down there this weekend to stay in a cabin and fish. The DWR report says the ice is 6-7" and the fishing is good for perch, splake and bows, but it hasn't been updated since the 3rd.
I called the lodge yesterday. I was told that last week the ice was 8" to 10" thick. There was 7" of snow on top yesterday. I'm headed down Saturday to give it a try.
By the way, I'm new here. I've been following posts for a little while, but this is my first post.
Hey,
just found this on the DWR's website - updated 1/17/08
FISH LAKE: 10 to 12 inches of ice with up to a foot of snow on top. Some slushy spots near the edges. Fishing is good to excellent for 12- to 17-inch splake by jigging just off the weedline in 20 to 25 feet of water. Tip your jigs with sucker or perch meat for best success. A few rainbows also being caught while jigging for splake, but more are found suspended about 10 feet below the ice. Perch fishing can be fast around the weedline using small jigs tipped with worms or perch meat. Remember that the perch limit here is 50 and harvest of perch is encouraged. A few lake trout are being caught by very patient anglers. Note: A few tiger muskies have moved up from Johnson Reservoir. The general statewide limits on tiger muskie apply here—one fish, which must be over 40 inches.
Nice. I was wondering when they were going to update that. Thanks.
Looks like it is pretty good down there right now (at least I hope so).
