Fished Travers today, in 30 some years never hardwater fished in S. Ab at this time of year. 2 1/2" ice, managed a couple of small pike and decent walleye. No wind, lots of sunshine, ducks, geese, eagles, snowy owls, deer, great day to be outside.

Those fish any good to eat. My son lives there and we always put em back.

Never have fished em through the ice. I know the fish at Arbour taste real mushy and almost mud like so I was assuming Bonavista trout would be similar.
