Strawberry Ice Off

[MBM1969]

Ice off is happening at Strawberry!! I went up Sunday with the float tube and fly rod and had a really good day. Most of the bays have some open water with more on Soldier Creek side. The Ladders had a good 500 yard section open.

I fished over by the Soldier Creek creek boat ramp. I knew it was going to be a good day when my first three casts caught fish. A big black wolley bugger on an intermediate line worked the best. I ended up catching 15 fish all cuts in the slot limit. My best was a 22 inch cut. I tried float tubing for a while but I didn't have as good as luck as just wading and casting from shore.

Below are some pics including some crazy soul who was not done ice fishing yet.
