See a current view of the reservoir’s ice conditions on theEmery Water Conservancy District website [http://www.ewcd.org/cameras/huntington-north-reservoir-cam/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery]. (“12-12-18”)

Try using size 6-8 beadhead leeches and crystal buggers on medium- or fast-sinking line. See a current view of the reservoir’s water/ice conditions on theEmery Water Conservancy District website [http://www.ewcd.org/cameras/joes-valley-reservoir/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery].
