Here is a great report from Mike_Skoges that was posted today on
http://www.icefishingchat.com/Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and just getting back to ice fishing again and here is what I have as far as ice reports around the area.
I just fished upsata lake yesterday it has 6 inches of solid ice. Caught 40 perch all fairly small around 6 inches. Fun lake to perch fish in if you have some kids that don't have a ton of interest. Easy to catch the perch and they are great eating. The fish seemed to stop biting around 1:30.
After Upsata I went to Salmon Lake, the fishing was slower but I went in the afternoon as I was at upsata in the morning. Caught 5 perch in about an hour and a half. All about 9 inches so nothing spectacular but easier to make a meal out of. I have heard from people that have been fishing salmon they have been pulling out quite a few pike as well but I haven't been fishing for them. There is about 8 inches on the north end of Salmon lake where most people have been fishing, however, the south end now has about 3 inches as well and is definitely fishable.
The rest the lakes I just know the reports and haven't fished them personally.
Georgetown - Plenty of ice, catching salmon in the morning and afternoon.
Lake Mary Ronan - Going to be spectacular fishing as soon as it gets good ice. It froze over completely 2 days ago. It should be VERY fishable this weekend. That is where I will be
Flathead - East bay is still not frozen at all as of yesterday. It still has waves going on it so it won't be frozen for quite some time still... Elmo bay has some big perch in it but it won't freeze for a long time if it even does freeze.
Seeley - Lake is frozen and fishable although not many people have bene fishing it lately so not a great fishing report.
Canyon Ferry- If the weather stays the way it is should be plenty fishable this weekend in parts. It is a large body of water so still be careful but you should be able to fish it this weekend.
Browns Lake - They have been catching some VERY big rainbow on Brown's lake, so if you like to eat and catch trout this is a great place to go...
As far as the rest I probably know the ice reports, so if you have any further questions feel free to ask. I just can't think of any more lakes right now. Also I am more of a perch fisherman than anything so if you want to know what they are biting on I would be plenty willing to share that as well. Have a great Holiday and Happy fishing!
