My brother and I came up from Utah and got to experience our first Idaho ice fishing trip. We have family in Idaho Falls and Rexburg, but for their own safety I will not disclose who they are. (word has it that outsiders are not welcome). Anyway, lets get to our report. We arrived at Island Park Reservoir around 6:30 and started fishing around 7. It was pretty slow to start out and iced a few in the first few hours, but really got into em around 11. We ended the day with 12 between the 5 of us. All Rainbows. 5 were in the 15-18 inch range. We used jigs tipped with night crawler and meal worms. We had all our success about 10 feet down. Had a great time. Can't wait to get back.
