Some beautiful daytime weather up here, lots of sun and warmth. Bring your sunscreen!!! Nightime temps are staying below freezing keeping ice conditions OK. Ice varies in thickness but is 15 plus inches in most spots. Inlet and outlet areas will have less ice due to moving water, and watch out for spots where people have built fires on the ice, as it will be soft, from the sun heating up the dark ashes/soot.
Guests did well ice fishing this past weekend, with good action up shallow close to the resort. Worms tipping a Tunkwa Rig was the best producer.
A couple of our nearby lakes, locate at lower elevation, are iced off and fishing OK as well, with leaches fished slow the best presentation. The local ‘stillwater’ season has got off to a good start!
This will be out last ice fishing report for the season, BUT
watch here for updates on the ice off status and progress here at Tunkwa and Leighton Lakes..
