Default Jan 11 Spray Lakes

I was out at Spray Lakes yesterday, 742 is in good shape other than a few icy spots. I tried Sparrowhawk, the trail from the road to the lake is in pretty good shape, and there is a bit of hard packed snow on top of the ice. Walking isn't too bad, but you still sink a bit, so after a while it does becoming a bit tiring lol.

All that snow they had has mostly frozen, so you have about 5" of ****ty ice over top of a layer of ice / slush, then about 12" of good ice.

Fishing was a bit slow for me yesterday, although I managed a few fish and lots of bites that I was having trouble hooking up with. As normal at Spray, the bite started pretty early for me (about 8:30) and slowed down as the day went on.
