Thread: East Fork

EF update from yesterday.
Water temps we right around 37 degrees and most of the open water parts of the lake was ice free. Most of the coves still had ice in them. We did play ice breaker in the mouth of a few of the coves but we decided to skip the coves and just fish the main lake. There was still a little ice around some shores but it was mostly broken up so it shouldn't last too long.
The fishing was slow but we did manage some on jigs but they are pretty deep.
What impressed us was the guy out there water skiing. I've seen him before in winter and someone once told me his goal is to go out skiing at least once every month of the year. He's never there long in the winter maybe an hour or so. I say Kudo's to him he is a guy who really enjoys his sport.

We only fished around 4 hours and it was great just to be out again.

Was there on Saturday and we got fish on main lake fishing 30 feet deep. I know that sounds crazy but that's how deep we were getting them. on jigs. good electronics is a must when fishing this way. got good ones to.
