Camping crew, I’ll be out of town for the beginning of your trip but might swing by the 31st or 1st. I’ll keep checking this thread to see where you guys will be!
Ok so we are going to try and plan a camping trip to the gorge on the weekend of Dec 30 to Jan 1or 2nd is the plan for now hopefully everything goes as plan
Sounds good ! Spent the last 5 days getting rid of a Gallbladder, should be recovered enough to make a day or two.please keep me in the loop !
I may be there too-- This below zero weather will open up more areas!
Gale i hope everything heals up good with you and I see you on the hard deck soon. I've been mentioning this season I've had some stuff going on since September now missing a few lymph nodes and it turned out to be classic Hodgkins lymphoma cancer, going on my 7th chemo treatment yesterday and i have 1 more to go. The good news is it went into remission after my 4th treatment and I'll be honest its been different life event for sure at 50 or at age at that.. It's been a kick in the ass 100% and my winter beard sucks, but I'm getting thru it. Probably won't be camping till the end of January if im lucky. So day trips for me for now. Looking forward to seeing all guys on the ice at FG
You guys are killing me. I have a funeral down there on the 29th in Salt Lake. Might have to sneak by and say hello on my way home if there’s room. Good to see you guys are all doing well. Matt I’m glad that you are on the mend. No fun for sure.
If I can add in my two cents, I would head elsewhere than south on road 11. It appears the fish have moved out of there. I don’t know why this happens but it seems to every year. We went from a 30 fish day between 2 people to 8 fish between 10 people. I’ve heard of 6” of ice south of buckboard but hard to tell as I’m currently in the Virgin Islands, sipping on bud light, on the patio in the 80 degrees evening weather . Regardless, if you guys want to make that a base camp, it’s not a bad idea…but I think it will be slow fishing. Gotta follow that ice line south for best results!
I will be heading to Buckboard Tuesday (1/3/23) I hope. Tan Dodge truck pulling white enclosed snowmobile trailer. Will camp at boat ramp parking lot. Would like to meet some of the people on this site! Will be alone because no one else can go & I'm tired of waiting! Hogs/ Pups/ Lings I don't care!
I did not do well at all- Went out of Buckboard & headed north by cliffs Wed. afternoon- Tried 30ft to 50ft without luck- Same Thurs.- Saw few fish on the finder- Did not try after dark -Had to leave Fri.- Will be back Mon. or Tues. Have a lot to learn about picking a good spot- Others I talked with had poor success. It will get better!
