Happy New Year! Here are the standings as of Jan 2, 2023. A nice jumbo perch posted by SkunkedAgain, 'bow by Jig-fisher, and Hook-set posted a good crappie and white bass. The ice on many lakes is now very slushy from the recent wet snow. I hope we get some colder temps soon. Happy Fishing! Ron

Thanks for the trip, Ron. Good to spend the day with you and Lucas.

Hey, you bet! It was a good trip and I enjoyed sharing the cold day with you. Lucas and I are headed to the Gorge Saturday and Sunday. I'm hoping to add a couple species to my list...
RE: Standings - Utah Ice Fishing Challenge 2022/2023 - hookngrinin - 02-07-2023
Feb. 6 Standings. It's good to see fish from Bear Lake being posted. Joatmon maintains his lead and is up to 15 species adding a channel cat. Well done, Brett. A little over a month left for the Ice Challenge. It looks like the ice will be holding nicely for a while. Happy fishing... Ron
RE: Standings - Utah Ice Fishing Challenge 2022/2023 - hookngrinin - 02-14-2023
February 13 Standings. joatmon remains in the lead and has posted 16 species now including his latest; a 29" Northern pike. I iced a 28" pup lake trout at the Gorge and Jeff (SkunkedAgain) has been getting into some action on Bear Lake. It's been a fun ice season and Ice Challenge. Ron

March 6, 2023 Update. It's coming to an end and the race just got tighter. SkunkedAgain edges me out of second place with a toad largemouth bass. Congrats on that bass, Jeff. joatmon remains in the lead and just added his 17th specie. Well done, Brett. Just over a week left now for this season's Ice Challenge. It's been a great ice season and fun participating/moderating the Ice Challenge...
RE: Standings - Utah Ice Fishing Challenge 2022/2023 - SkunkedAgain - 03-16-2023
Congratulations Brett, even when I thought I'd make it close by taking the lead on the anything category, you answered before mine was even scored... Well done... Congrats... Jeff

Thanks Ron. It was a good season and I met and exceeded some personal goals (I will highlight in a separate post in the General forum). Thanks for moderating and for letting me fish with you. I'd like to explore the basin lakes with you a little more next winter.
Jeff, thanks for the kind words. I expected you to pass me with a good trout from Bear Lake. I was so focused on white fish I never got off the rock pile to explore. And that sucker was a total surprise. Let's hit it together next winter!
RE: Standings - Utah Ice Fishing Challenge 2022/2023 - SkunkedAgain - 03-20-2023
Hey Brett that sounds good, I thought we'd be able to do it this year, but guess I was a day off your schedule... Hopefully next year we'll get it going again... Congrats... Jeff
