As of 2/7/25, park officials measured 7″ of ice off the boat ramp, with areas of open water and soft edges both south and north of the ramp.  Areas that were appropriate for ice fishing before may not be anymore. In the coves of Hendricks Arm and Penrod Arm, anglers are reporting ice 10″-12″. Trout are being caught in the 16″-22″ range, and trout are measuring 6″-10″.

For a trout bite, try fishing approximately 4 feet below the ice in up to 15 feet of water. Worms and PowerBait are both producing catches. Some anglers prefer to add a small piece of worm to a trout jig. Perch are hitting small jigs and worms jigged just off the bottom in 20+ feet of water.
