Ice fishing
« on: February 11, 2025, 11:03:13 PM »

Hello everyone. I知 just trying to start something here.    I知 not an ice fisherman. But I知 heading to bridge lake area in a few lakes.     And once again trying to get to English lake. Wish me luck :/ anyways.  Let痴 start an ice fishing thread.  It could bring some fun and jokes back.    Has anyone ice fished highway 24 this year?   And how are the lakes producing  ?

I just put up a video from our trip in mid January, fishing both Hathaway Lake and Fawn Lake. Hathaway is good for kokanee, but also produces burbot, lake trout and rainbow trout but you'd have to fish specific areas for them. We also fished Fawn Lake, which surprisingly has a good abundance of burbot, so we had good fishing of both rainbows and burbot. I'd go there, seems to be a reasonably easy lake to fish. Irish Lake would be another good one to try for rainbows. Bridge is supposed to be good for burbot in late February and early March once fish move into the shallows to spawn. It's got good sized kokanee of course.
