Fished the inlet area from 11 to 4 and the fishing was hot!! Between the two of us we caught over 40 fish (some being nice browns) and it was non-stop action. The trout were also really aggressive and would hit anything you put down the hole. The ice at the inlet area was about 6 inches of hard clear ice, and on the main lake it was a little more than that. Still snow cover on the ice too. The water clarity was also really good at about 13 feet. Hope it helps!

Stopped there on the way back from keystone this morning. We fished the main lake by a handful of other shacks. Only fished for about an hour, we set up in 7.5fow. Very clear. We saw a handful, caught 3 rainbows. Then the winds picked up to around 50-60mph and everyone cleared out.

No, this was from when I went on Saturday. It seems like the inlet area has been fishing better than the main lake.

I fished sunday morning from 11 to 1 or so  on the main lake, probably almost straight out of the bridge  didn't catch anything, as I was leaving, some other guy told me he been they for 4 hours didn't catch anything, but he did say the fish are there just not biting


sounds like I will try the inlet next time,

thanks

We pulled out and fished very similar hours. We were in the Frabill flipover that set up next to the Frabill double hub and the green Eskimo flip over. We caught 4 Rainbows in about an hour. Saw more swim by, show a little interest in our jigs, and kept on. Then the winds picked up and the lake cleared off.

My son and his Grand Father were on the bridge a couple weeks ago and said there were dozens and dozens of dead fish below.
My boy said he stopped counting at sixty?
