GM 1/13/18

Late report, but the ice was 6-8” some area did have open water but the lake is fully capped, but would recommend a spud bar cause some local access area did have open water. Between the 3 of us we limited out with a bunch of 15-19”, plus caught and release over 30+ or more. Did however see a 34” come out of a hole and did see that they kept it, it was very sad to see that the grim reaper took his life. By all means I can’t argue with them since there is not a slot limit or anything to protect them at GM, but power to them I guess. I would of release it.


I removed his face so that he will not get harassed, I don’t know him but they were very nice guys and also giving us some advice.

Great report, Shu -- sounds like you had a great day up there.  GM has been putting out good numbers. As for the biggun, many of us would have released it, but that's his right as an angler.  That's definitely a nice healthy fish!  Not skinny at all.

I appreciate the report, between Williams Fork and Green Mountain I'm torn where to go this upcoming weekend!

[JohnnyO19]

That is a great looking fish. Agree with his right to keep it, buuuuuuuuuuuuut    It's too bad

[TimK]

I think keeping  fish like that, while within his rights, is kinda ignant.  Takes 20-30 years to grow em that big and theres enough little ones for the whole state to eat (or you could go fry up some horse turds, same thing ) Replica mounts look good and you dont have to deal with a giant frozen sword.  Its easy to be critical til you have the beast on the ice, but Im allowed to be, as ive sent two 20lbers back down the hole
