Foster Arends Lake

Yesterday, Saturday, there were a bunch of guys ice fishing on the south side of the lake and a few on the north end. Stay away from the middle of the lake as its always weaker there and the swimming beach area has a big spring. As always, becarefull as its early yet and watch for any bad ice looking areas due to springs. Stay where the most are fishing for now and enjoy a day on the ice. Nate said that a bunch of guys who stopped in at HOF today were mostly headed for Fosters or Wilcox. Wishing everyone a great on the ice fish catchin year. Can you say: FISH ON!
Thanks, Bill

ps. Please be sure and post how you do fishing at each outting as we ALL learn from each others sharing. Thanks.

I went to Fosters yesterday afternoon for a couple hours. Sure was great weather! The trout were also biting a little bit. Here is a picture of a typical 10-11 inch rainbow. There seem to be lots of this size.

Good Fishing,
Mike

This one was 12 inches.

My buddy Ed with a 14 inch rainbow.

Nice job Mike! Too bad we didn’t see you guys out there. We were fishing Foster’s on Saturday and Sunday. Similar sucsess as you. Here’s a picture of one Alex caught.

The lake looks good for ice skating don’t it? Most everywhere we measured ice we had around six inches or so.

Yes, it was a consistent 6 inches where I was. I am very glad that I had my ice creepers on my boots. Those creepers are only $4.99, inexpensive security against a serious fall on that slippery ice!

Good Fishing,
Mike

Hey Dan and Alex. How are you guys doing? That Alex sure is a good fisherman. He has alot of skill for a guy his age. Fosters had a good crowd on Saturday and alot of people on Sunday.

Thanks, Bill
