Lake is capped but ice conditions very and are thin around the shore. 1.5″-3″ of ice. Fishing has been hard to report with ice conditions changing daily.
Diamond is open and accessible. Fishing has been Fair. Flies: Hot Heads and egg patterns have been the go to so far. Bait: Worms have been working best. Lures: Mepps with red and white.
Thanks to or partners at Two Dogs for gitting out and checking some lakes yesterday. Now is a great time to look at booking your early season trip. https://www.flystore.net/two-dogs-guide-service/ Lake was 90% still iced over. Road was not passable all the way to lake.
Diamond has been fishing Fair (only two reports from this weekend) Ice 4″-6″ road was passable and ice was good. As always conditions can change quick so use best judgment and be safe.
