Hey I am heading home to East Wenatchee for the weekend and I was wondering which lakes have safe fishing ice on them and which don't or are completely free from the ice? Any input and help would be great!

All the lakes you've just mentioned have ice. Also the south end of Banks is all iced up as well.

All fishable as far as I'm concerned. I was thinking they might start to go, but NCW temps this week havn't been as warm as earlier predicted. Thin ice doesn't bother me, as I'm usually always skating on it.

Was at Fish Lake last Friday, a solid 8 inches of good ice with a couple inches of snow on it.

well Fish Lake has about 8 to 12 inches of ice as of saturday when my dad, buddy, and I were up there! great fishing and tons of perch!!!

jordano · « **Reply #12 on:** March 10, 2011, 10:18:47 PM »

hey anyone know how the ice is on Fish Lake by Lake Wenatchee and Lake Patterson up by Winthrop?? Another lake I was looking into is Dry Falls, is it ice free?

MtnMuley · « **Reply #13 on:** March 11, 2011, 08:09:43 AM »

Patterson is fine. I'm not sure about LK Wenatchee, but I figure it should be ok as well.

has anyone been up fishing Patterson? is it worth the drive up there from Wenatchee?

Personally, I wouldn't from the reports I've heard.

so it sounds like Fish Lake would be my best bet then..

If you were there a week ago and the fishing was great, there'd be no question where I'd be!

O I haven't been there in a while... but I was hoping to find a little bit bigger fish than what we were getting the last time we were there... ha
