Flaming Gorge Ice Update

[Ryno]

We fished the Confluence on New Year's Day and the ice was variable, 4-inches on the new sheet, and 10-inches on the old sheet. We found the lake trout bite to be best in 55-58 feet of water the last couple of hours of the day. We didn't fish the morning being it was -20F, but morning would likely be good as well. We were using 3.5-inch Dry Creek Outfitters tubes in white w/ black/gold flake tipped with sucker meat. Most of the fish were near the bottom, but we caught a few small lakers and a bow 10-20 ft under the ice as well.

Good luck! Ryno
