Has anyone had any luck at Fontenelle. I've been a couple times and haven't had any luck. Saw some nice rainbows swim by, that was it.

 It has been really slow out there for me and my bunch. It was a whole lot better early  ice. I think that it will get better soon. The water was high all summer and fall. Has dropped a bunch as of late though. 
 Welcome to the Shanty Faiglrock. Enjoy this place!    ;)   :tipup:

I heard they are cutting flow out of the dam considerably and soon.  Trying to conserve water since the snow pack is so light.
I don't have the link but probably google would have a corp of engineers site with lake elevation and in and out flows on an instant if not daily graph.
If anyone finds it, it would be a great link to have around.

Thanks Wyo Ice.
Its been real slow for me as well, but only have tried it twice. First time skunked, the second time two browns. Hopefully it picks up, looking forward to getting back out on the ice. 
I am enjoying this place already. Looks like a lot of nice people on here, and its great to chat with sportsman sharing the same passion.

Just as good?

From what I have heard, less fish but more mature at Fontenelle.
