Fished Fish Lake today with PIKEMAN99 and Tincanfsh. What a beautiful day on the ice. Ice was about 20 inches thick, except that it got a little thin near the edge where Billy and Glen crossed coming in (see the pictures). What a great place to ice fish. Fish for macks on the bottom with one rod and at the same time catch splake anywhere in the water column with the other rod or catch rainbow down to about 25' with the other rod. Glen caught by far the most and largest splake, Billy caught the most perch and got his share of rainbows and splake, and I caught plenty of perch (4 was more than enough for bait) my share of rainbows and splake and I took big-fish honors with a 35" 13 pound 7 ounce mack. Billy did great by catching us a large sucker for bait, and he lost a nice mack that he had on for a couple feet. I missed at least three other macks. Fun fellow anglers, gorgeous weather, beautiful scenery and plentiful fish -- it doesn't get much better than that!
