It is a good fishery, but doesn't form ice very well. I don't believe we've had enough cold weather this year. You'd probably have to bank yank it. In years past, I'd watch it often when I was heading down to fish the south fork. The most ice I've ever seen was one year there was ice most of the way to the dam. If you go and do find ice, be very careful, and let us know what you find.
