Happy New Year... I got a visit from the SKUNK this morning!
Got on the ice around 7:45a and hauled off around 11:30a. Ice was 13" thick everywhere I drilled with only the very first foot or so off the dam being soft. One giant step off the shore puts you solidly on top. Dead calm today w/ bluebird skies.
I had several lookers come flying in on the Vex, but could not entice any of them to hit. Jigging a number of different combo's - spoon w/ dropper, Chubby Darter, Jiggin' Rap, others - in 15-35 FOW.
Here's a view looking east... most of the gang that arrived after me went around this corner (to the right).
Here's a view looking NW off the dam... about a dozen vehicles were there when I left.
Maybe NEXT time I'll actually have some pictures of FISH to share.
Good recon mission though as I got a good read on how long it takes to get to Causey and Pineview from my house (and South Fork for fly-fishing). I didn't stop by Pineview but the entire bay south of Cemetery Point was frozen, although I didn't see anyone out there as I drove past.
