Found safe ice and a few fish north central
« on: Feb 16, 2018, 06:39 PM »
Was worried about the ice, was 45F at midnight, still 45F at 5:00 am.
Turned out ok. Had to get on by a fallen tree but had about 6 inches. Varied in quality, some punky stuff looked sketchy but you could see it to avoid.
Good news was it didn't lose much during the day and was cooling down by afternoon.
Decent rainbows, kept 3 that were deep hooked, released a few more. Rounded out the bag with some buck bass for the white meat. Released a bunch of them as well.

 I haven't been out at all this week, so it's reassuring to hear that the ice is still holding up. Thanks for your report.

Looks like a nice day of fishing! Fished on 12" of pretty good ice  in the Berkshires.
