anyone planing on fishing fosters

i was wondering if any of you all were planing on maybe hitting fosters this saturday for some trout i mean 6that is if there is if the ice is still thick enough

I plan on getting out in the am at least,still had 12″ or so of ice once you got to it from shore.was out there late this afternoon and its a real trick to stay on your feet with the hundreds of holes drilled but not refreezing under the 5″ of slush,hopefully it will be cold enough to freeze the slush so you can stay on top of it in the morning saturday.saw some awesome trout caught today and was able to keep one for myself besides missing a couple hefty fish that i missed on the hookset.wear some tall waterproof boots when you venture out.jigs with minnows,waxies or powerbait was working today.good luck!!

The ice should still be good, but you’ll need to watch out for the holes that have opened in a couple areas where there are springs. Just keep your eyes open, use caution and you should be fine. Sounds like some mighty nice fish are being caught!

yes there is thats why i wanna get there again once more before the ice is out and i am hoping with this run of it will hopefully make the fish a little more active

There are some hawgs being caught and a little tip if you have a flip over shelter or ice house bring it cause the sight fishing is CRAZY they put some pigs in foster holy cow they scare ya coming by and when they hit hold on! St the drags light too

yeah i know there is and i have seen em they are huge and mike i will be in to buy some of them huge wasxies ya got out there and maybe a few minnows too

i am planning on going staurday just wondering if anyone was out today or plan on going tomorrow and could give me an ice report and let me know if i’m gonna need an auger cause i didn’t on tuesday night

I fished Foster’s today. the ice is soft on top, but seems to be solid underneath. I did see one person put a leg through, I assume through an old hole – so you need to be careful. You’ll need to go out to the dock and get on the ice from the dock. There are still some very nice trout being caught!

How did you do? any pigs? still planning on hitting the ice in the am.are the jigs still doing the trick for anyone else out there did you happen to notice.

The largest one I got was about 15 inches. Saw several between 14-16. It seems the real slobs are often right under the ice. Fathead minnows have been best, but jigging is also working well.

of coarse the pigs are under the ice

As in , just below the ice…
How did you do? I heard the bite was real good at times yesterday.

Its a good time to stock up on the ice fishin jigs and whatever else you guys are catching these trout on as they wiil work just as good when the ice goes out too. And the problem a guy finds after ice goes out is that the ice jigs and spoons are put away and the spring and suumer stuff is brought out to take its place on the shelves. HOF still has alot of goodies left in stock I’m sure cause Mike fishes these bodies of water alot that we all do so he always makes sure he has more than enough of the right stuff in stock for us.
Thanks, Bill

um yesterday i didn’t do to well i got one little gill but i was only out for like to hours cause i had stuff to did and my kid to take care of but i decide today i would stop in there today and get some minnows and i did alittle better today i caught 2 14 inch rainbows and a 10 inch brooke and lost a pig right under the ice i was so mad and i missed a bunch right away this mourning because there weren’t really biting that hard i was fising over of the beach today in anywhere from about 2 feet to about 8 but i think it was those hooked on fishing fatheads that did the trick
