I think Billy (Tincanfsh) and I were the first to ice fish Scofield this ice season! Sorry Fuzzyfisher, I know you wanted that honor. The ice was about 1 1/2 inches thick. The fishing was great, had we caught one more fish we would have caught one. Hard to catch them though when you don't get any bites.
Here is Billy:

[font "Impact"][#ff4040][size 3]WTF!!! I thought fuzzy had the brass, but I guess you 2 have bigger pairs. 1 1/2 inches is just plain ludicrous! [/size][/#ff4040][/font]

Hey kent,
No I couldn't have - I was skiing in that stuff at somewhere between 9600 and 10000 feet. I had my own white out and blizzard and, I got to use 2 poles - So, I am not jealous one little bit !
Where's your entry on the Ice Fishing Challange Board ? You could at least have put down a tape measure so we could tell how big the fish would have been - if you had caught one.

[font "Impact"][#ff4040][size 3]You probably could fish it within the end of the week. Considering how cold it is in the valley.[/size][/#ff4040][/font]

I enjoyed the miserable conditions on Huntington too much to even go anywhere else ice fishing[cool] thanks for the report on Scofield, finally things are starting to harden up.

] I've fished similar places at almost every lake I've ice fished!!!
] There was ice on Scofield on the south end for about 2/3 of the way to the Island. There was ice close to the dam. The northern bay was mostly iced in. All ice looked way too thin to fish on unless you want to fish where we were. Stand on the dock and drill holes through the ice. BTW -- we fished in about 20 feet of water for about one hour in the early afternoon.
].. you were not useing corndogs were you?
