Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir, Norton Bay, Idaho

[idahopanfish]

Finally got out yesterday, 1st day of the new year. Couldn't get in to Grey's Landing or Big Sand Bay as the road was very drifted! Tried Norton Bay's road and other that being muddy still would suggest 4x4 to get in.[]

Ice had water on the top but was 8+" deep. Kind of eery looking but plent of ice. Need to have some type of cleats on the boots whether it be the boughten kind or screwing in some 1/4" sheet metal screws in the bottom of your boots, other wise you will be slippin and when you go down you will be wet,brrr.[frown]

I fished from 2- 6pm and landed 1 trout, saw 2 other guys land a real nice trout.

Here's some pics of the day.
