Post by: aza10 on Nov 27, 2021, 10:21 PM
Looks like a few guys have been able to get on some ice so far this season, I came up short on thanksgiving day but soon enough. 

Good luck out there this year everyone! :tipup:

 :o. I moved here a couple years back and didn’t really think there would be many ice fishing opportunities, but then I started looking around and BAM!!  I am down in the Tri-Cities area and have no problem driving for some good ole ice fishing.  I prefer pan fish and walleye, but will try anything.  Any info on where and some sites to check ice co dictions would be much appreciated!

I can't speak much for that area as I live in north idaho and usually fish north eastern Washington. Plenty of opportunities for pan fish and trout up here as well as some laker and burbot.

Heard Dog Lake might have some ice. Going to drive over White Pass on Friday and plan to stop and check it out. If there is ice I'll drop a line for a bit. I will update if I find anything good.

Will be out on Thomas in the morning...sounds like fishing has been well.  Future ice is looking better with lower temps in the forecast.   :tipup:

Thomas was good. A frosty -10 when I arrived. A lot of the slush had froz solid to make anywhere from a total of 5-7” a few soft spots where you would still fall through slush. with a good 3 clear. I fished the east side and fishing was slow but decent. A few keeper perch mostly too small. Fairly busy out there for midweek.
