What is a Cisco Run?

The cisco is native to Bear Lake and only appears mid-late January in the shallows to spawn. This is the run. You can dip net for them through the ice if there is any or just wade out and try, lacking ice. Mostly they are used for bait on the lake trout or cuts but are only legal for bait @ Bear Lake.

Here is what it looks like when there is ice on the lake during the cisco run.

Thats cool as heck, thanks for the info guy.
