Strawberry not edgie enough yet
#1
Drove up to check the ice off conditions at the berry yesterday.

The only place with enough open water was the ladders.

Pictures of looking west from the ramp, west from parking lot, road to Renegade, road to mud creek, road to Soldier creek dam, and looking down from Soldier cr road.

No tracks like anyone has tried to drive over the remaining snow to try to get to Renegade or down the Mud creek road.

The Soldier cr dam road is only plowed one vehicle wide. I didn't drive down it very far so I don't know how far they plowed but I would think all the way to the dam?

The edges that are melting have thin ice over parts of it. So early mornings may have reduced casting opportunity. At 10 AM the air temp was only 38.

Where is global warming when you want it.....

Thanks for checking it out! I was just wondering what Strawberry would open enough to throw some streamers around the edges. Looks like that won't be for a while yet.

Thanks for the report and great pictures.

Looks like it's going to be awhile before it's tube friendly.[Wink]

always appreciate when someone makes the scouting trip and shares on the forum. Many thanks. I have a trip scheduled for the 29th. We'll see what it looks like then.

What are some other options besides Strawberry within an hour or so? Anyone?

Lost Creek is open and fishes well from a toon', East Canyon has been good or hit Willard for Wipers.

The marina Facebook page just posted that ice out has hit and there is fishable water through the lake..... kinda weird given the pics you just posted.

Was up there today and things hadn't changed. We fished just south of ladders in the 20-30 yards of opened edges. We caught one 11" planter bow and that was the only taker we had in the time we spent. Talked to 3 other groups and no one had any success.
