Hit Strawberry and fished around Chicken Creek East on Sunday with Dj Ole, Holleywood and a neighbor. Fishing was slow for most of the day with a lot of moving around and experimenting with colors. We finally figured out that chartreuse or yellow would do the trick. Ice cutters (Thanks Maniac) by far out fishes tube jigs or paddle bugs. We managed 8 fish all in the slot with the biggest coming in at just over 19". Lots of snow and hail fell putting down another 6", but warm temps melting it as fast as it fell. We fished on 18 to 24" of ice. All in all it was nice to get out of the inversion and breath, not chew the air for a while............

It's good to see you had some fun fishing with the Ice Cut'r bugs. Those lures seem to catch just about everything, I caught Trout, Macks and Burbot on Ice Cut'rs this past weekend.
Thanks for the report!
