Morning skim ice along the shores, but wide open during the day. Expect ice starting to build on Monday. Trout fishing has been fair to good depending upon the day. Low light conditions (early morning and late afternoon) seem to be working the best. Those fly fishermen that were catching fish report that they have been catching nice fish with a variety fly patterns including wooly buggers, leech patterns, red copper Johns, hares ears and chironomid (midge larva) patterns. Ice cream cones, red butt buzzers, red and silver zebra midges, red brassies and frostbite chironomids should all be working. Anglers are also having some success with spinners, worms and PowerBait fished from shore. The dock is out of the water at the main boat ramp. South Fork was stocked with approximately 39,000 trout this fall. Stocking is done for the year.
