Yeah I'm thinking KLG might be ok to try, but I don't have any ice gear or safety gear so I'm not sure if I'd be able to go out on the ice, unless someone didn't mind me tagging along with them!

RV was my backup plan, but I may end up going there first. Only thing is i don't have a boat, so if I see you I'll be waving from the shoreline!

rvr is so deep the water just keeps cycling as the water cools and it takes a lot of cold to get a layer on it. I wouldn't choose saturday as your first day to ice fish, it's going to be a wet sloppy mess and probably not that enjoyable haha....unless a giant fish comes to the hole to make it all better

Yesterday @ RVR: Several shoreline open water anglers on the main res. One @ the main boat ramp said he caught & released a few in the 1PM hour. He had a hit when I was there @ 4:30PM, but didn’t hook up. A boat angler coming in then said he caught & released 1 trout. A 27” brown that he claimed was fat. An ice angler coming off the swimming area caught a pickerel & several yellow perch for dinner. Said the ice was 9”.

Thanks for the report! After passing by the rivers this morning and seeing how high they are, I think RV is gonna be the spot. If anyone wants to fish I'll be hiking the shoreline for most of the morning and probably into the afternoon. I'm stopping by The Sporting Life around 8 AM when they open to grab a new license and some extra tackle and I'll be heading to the valley from there. Don't be afraid to say hi!

Tomorrow’s conditions don’t look ideal! I’ll be out regardless! It’s winter! The ice was 12 inches thick yesterday, maybe we lost 2-3 inches which puts me on a nice 9 inches! I’ll be Jigging somewhere guaranteed! Watch the edges and drain holes Ice fishermen! Old 8 inch holes turn into manholes during these warm ups! Be safe and catch em up!!!

Well i was wrong. I couldnt find a way on any ice without a full plank.
