In the early 60's there was a lake (Long-Sought-For:Westford/Ma) that the MassF&G was considering not stocking anymore because F&G considered it not suitable for holdovering of trout.Well, that myth disappeared when I and my cousin caught 3 18-20" browns through the ICE. Even had a write up + picture in the Lowell Sun.

I remember, first time I went icefishing dec. 20 1999, Vega Reservoir in colorado. I remember on my very first drop ever with just a plain nightcrawler I caught a 14" rainbow. That day I caught about 40 fish.

never through the ice, but recently I have been getting a lot of lakers nothing under 18.5 inches and I have gotten my limit twice, last time within 45 min of each other, and my largest was 26.25 inches and 6-6

all from shore
