TreeKiller, are you ok with being the designated Ice Conditions guy and keep us all up to speed with the ice on Swan?

Checked swan ice today. 0-3inches south end was making some good ice but now has 1 foot of snow. Open water in the middle of the lake and inlet. Another good cold snap should do it.

It sounds like fun but that weekend doesn't work for me. That's the weekend of the Pike on Ice tournament in Seeley Lake.

what kind of fish is in swan lake anyway

heine · « **Reply #67 on:** Dec 13, 2013, 12:29 PM »

I run a trapline up above the lake and I have a nice view of the lake. still two open spots on each end that scare me a little bit but if we get some more cold weather to lock it up good. Old school Ben there are as follows in the lake. bull, brook, rainbow, lake and cutthroat trout, kokanee, perch pike and northern pike minnow. A few others i could be missing as well

I hear ya. 4 days ago you could ice fish a lot of the Bitterroot (hypothetically of coarse) and today I thought about stringing the fly rod back up

As of last week it was not safe. I'm out of the area for a couple weeks so Don't know if this cold is helping any.

mt.perchman · « **Reply #76 on:** Dec 21, 2013, 06:17 PM »

I'm heading up on tues . Will give report..

Mogi · « **Reply #77 on:** Dec 21, 2013, 07:04 PM »

Thanks fellas!

Mogi · « **Reply #78 on:** Dec 22, 2013, 09:38 PM »

The question was asked on another thread but there happen to be some contreversy going on so I thought I'd try to start some chatter on this one. Alternatives for Swan gathering if ice isn't safe? I'm really looking forward to it so any chance to make it happen I'm all for. Will travel for good folk and good fishin!

checked it 4 days ago when we pulled our traps, there was a thin skiff in the middle that was froze and thats it... not safe to fish at all

Im thinking we might need to find an alternative lake for sure.

Hi Bits....Welcome! This is a great site, you're gonna get a lot more enjoyment out of it if you post a little about yourself and participate meaningfully in the threads.

Hoosier · « **Reply #83 on:** Dec 24, 2013, 12:15 PM »

Bits must like the game chutes and ladders.He tried the ladder to get to 5, well the chute just took him to 2.. lol

Mogi · « **Reply #84 on:** Dec 24, 2013, 11:23 PM »

Let's get back to talking about a get together. Is it still on the table?

mt.perchman · « **Reply #85 on:** Dec 24, 2013, 11:34 PM »

I'm in just might need a new spot .. I will fish anywear you guys want... if its in eastern mt.I will have to make plans soon. If its in western I'm game.
Maybe the swan will freeze?

BigSage · « **Reply #86 on:** Dec 25, 2013, 09:54 AM »

I'm up for going anywhere in western MT. Eastern MT is too far for me for a day trip.
Placid, Noxon, Helena Reg.,

?

Swan for sure if it frozen though

missoulafish · « **Reply #87 on:** Dec 25, 2013, 01:04 PM »

Apparently Bits didn't care for his replies as he's gone now

mt.perchman · « **Reply #88 on:** Dec 26, 2013, 06:04 PM »

Well just traveled by the swan ...dont look good fellas..I'm in for a new place any thoughts. ...and yes just a day trip for me too.
