Randy and I saw some beautiful country and caught few fish. The plan was Chesterfield, but you know what they say about the best laid plans. It looked good from the road but there was 15’ of skim ice before solid ice. Randy suggested Black Foot reservoir, where we found 1ft. Of compacted snow/ice a layer of water then 1 foot of solid ice, just north of Dike Lake. We both caught several 10-12” planter bows, I caught Likely my personal best Chub and I fowl hooked a giant Rainbow. The big fish was caught on a night crawler on my Jaw Jacker, it was hooked in its anal fin and went on 3 drag pulling runs, I lost it at the hole trying to grab it by the tail. I estimate it was in the 25-30” range, biggest fish I have had on in a while.
