Iron Creek Lake (Spearfish, SD) 1-3,-09
« on: Jan 03, 2009, 06:50 PM »

I went out to Iron Creek Lake with a buddy today.  There was 8-10 inches of ice.  We fished from noon until 4 pm.  We caught two nice sized rainbow trout.  We were using wax worms.  We fished in about 28-30 FOW.  We had a lot of nibbles, but could hook em.  It was a fun day on the ice!

We tried Newell Lake this morning, but there was a 40 mph wind up there.  So, we decided to head to Iron Creek.

Walleye on Newell aren't hitting until night right now from what I hear...

Not enough ice or time... not necessarily in that order.

        I've been fishing Iron Creek since the 10Th of Dec.and everywhere on the lake has been productive.
      It has slowed down a bit since the 10Th,but it still is producing. You're right about waxies.Try using a small teardrop.I find there easier to hook with the small teardrop.I'm new to the area.I live in Spearfish,and get up there a couple times a week.
