Good Day At Soldier Creek

[obifishkenobi]

Hit Soldier Creek this morning with a friend, we parked at the turn off to the dam around 6:30am and walked along the road in snow mobile tracks for about a mile then accessed the ice and started fishing after 7am in 37' of water. It was non stop action, we did not keep count but probably around 100 between the two of us when we left at 1pm. We each caught a slot buster, making it even more awesome it was a double. The joke today was that we where catching the same fish over and over, the vast majority of the fish caught today where 18"-20" Cutthroat.
 We only caught 6 rainbows, two of which where almost black in their spawning colors. I caught mine on my favorite white with red flake Maniac Gitzilla, my buddy caught them on that too, but he started playing, what can I catch them on, the answer was every thing he tried, tube jigs atomic teasers, spoons and various other stuff. I tipped my stuff with meal worm he used salad shrimp. We caught them all through the water column from the bottom up to 10' down.
