Ventured to Strawberry with only really reports of Mud Creek being frozen we went over to the marina just to see. There were a few braver than me fishing east of the lodge where there is still visible open water few hundred yards out. We went in to badger bay and did decent. We were fishing by 4:30pm and by 4:32 we iced our first fish. We caught steady fish for the first two hours and then it was slower until 8:30 when we left. Iced about 30 fish between us, wasn’t spectacular by any means. Caught most on smaller stuff never got anything on anything bigger than a Gizzilla. Most were caught on a shrimpo, gizzila, or ratso. Tipped with either meal worm or minnow. Ice was 5” where we fished.
