Great Fish! I was thinking of heading out that direction. Any tips? Or easy access spots? ---

Another perch upgrade and my personal best. Probably my last upgrade though Iā€™d be thrilled to catch a bigger one. Northland jigging spoon fire tiger, no bait. This warm weather and wind is trashing the ice. Hopefully the ice survives the next two days so we donā€™t have to start over again. Six inches and shrinking. Main reservoir is open water. ---

That is American Falls again? 12.5 inches. Do you fish every day? [:)] I saw a shirt recently that said ā€œI could probably survive a day without fishing, but why risk it?ā€ Iā€™m thinking you need that shirt. [;)] ---

It was American falls. I try to fish everyday if the weather is partially agreeable and I think I may catch something. I like that saying. ---

American falls rainbow on the perch colored jig in his mouth. I left it there because I donā€™t remember the name of it. Tipped with minnow today. ---

Nice fatty! 20.5 inches. Looks a bit like a Lindy Slick Jig to me, but I canā€™t tell for sure. ---

Thatā€™s what it is called. Thanks. . It was one of the fattest trout Iā€™ve ever caught. Still swimming so I can catch him next year. ---

Henrys lake cutt from 12/12. I was hoping to get back up and do better, but it isnā€™t going to happen. Green paddlebug and worm. Then American falls chub on a rainbow northland jigging spoon tipped with worm tonight ---

Carp and a brown trout today. Both on a hareā€™s ear size 8 on a jawjacker. Snake river near Blackfoot ---

Got you down for 27.5 on the carp. Nice fish! 13.5 on the brown. Iā€™m giving you 16 on the cut, but that should technically be disqualified. Please get the whole fish and measure in the pictures so I can see the whole fish and tape. The carp replaces the chub submitted, so I didnā€™t score that. ---
