Okay who went out this week and what did you get?

I saw a lot of hard water this weekend and am getting ready for next week.

How are Ice levels? I have this weekend off and no where to be. A weekend of Ice fishing sounds nice. Say around kamloops to Logan Lake area.

Heading out tomorrow for the day! I'll see if I can hook into some brookies.

With this dump of snow, it will be knee deep water on top of the ice until some colder temps refreezes what's on top.

Think I will try tomorrow with the kids, don't usually have much success around here though!

Went out yesterday, got 15 ( there was 3 of us ) in just under 4 hours. Had to drill 5 holes through 8" ice with a hand auger to find them, and spend an hour trying out different depths, but once the legwork was done the fun started and it went by fast.

^^^^A foot or two from the bottom I'm guessing worked the best?

Just got back, tried for trout for a bit then moved a little deeper to catch some perch for the kids.

Actually yes! We found if you bounce the bait on the bottom, then lift up a foot or so, usually within 2 minutes you'll have something come check it out.
