Fished there this past weekend. Buckboard 4-5 inches in spots and further out the less ice. Also up by lost dog and confluence area ice was 6-8 inches. Fishing wise was HOT at night or just before sun up with slower fishing in the morning and day.

Here's a current report for out on the gorge. Me and four guys were out there Sunday night through about an hour ago.
Sunday at Buckboard the ice was 4 inches today at Buckboard the ice in some places is 2 1/2 inches to 3 inches. There are still a few places where it's 4 but this weather is not helping at all.
Sunday up at lost dog the ice was 8 inches or so, this morning it was about seven and very watery and slick on the top.
The small pups are biting pretty good but nothing of any decent size. We fished for the big Lakers and only saw three on the flasher. We caught a total of nine Burbot while we were there. Fishing was not as hot as I had hoped but I think that is due to the change in the weather.
If you are going, remember that the flaming gorge is a constant moving body of water. What this means is that the water underneath the ice flows and it makes the ice more unstable than on a regular nonmoving lake. In other words be careful. I do not think the fishing is hot enough right now to merit even going, but that is just my opinion.

Alright thanks for your report also! Hopefully it will pick up on the burbot fishing or maybe this just means the burbot population is getting a dent in it which would be awesome get them out of there! If I go I'll post my report thanks again
