Snow Berry

[dubob]

Roads were dicey from Danial's Summit to the marina.  Light snow falling until about 10:30 to 11:00.  Then the sun came out and stayed out the rest of the day until I left the area around three thirty.  There was 3 to 4 inches of new snow on top of layered ice which is still a foot or more thick (I didn't measure it).  There is a little moisture on top of the ice but i wouldn't call it slush.  Travel conditions were excellent on the ice - no slush, excellent edges, easy walking, and way thick ice.  All the roads were clear when I left.

Fishing was very good for cutts.  I quit fishing at 2:30 with 17 - my biggest was 20" long.  Matt, Lawrence, & Skyler had larger counts than did I.  Matt hit a count of 30 about 7:50 PM last night; no word on the others.  There were no kokanee caught while I was there.  Matt did ice one bow while I was there.  It was a very good day to be ice fishing - excellent companions, excellent weather, and excellent ice conditions.  It was a good way for me to end my ice fishing season.
