Canyon Ferry: Rainbows are being caught from the Ponds to Hole in the Wall in 10-15 feet of water while using green or pink jigs and worms. Perch and walleyes are being caught north of the Silos and from Confederate to Duck Creek in 20 to 30 feet of water while using green or chartreuse jigs tipped with a worm or maggots. There are boats getting out and fishing for rainbows around Shannon and Yacht Basin. There is 6-7 inches of ice from Confederate to the Ponds, 2-3 inches around White Earth and open water from Avalanche to the dam. Troy Humphrey, FWP, Helena
Hauser: A few rainbows continue to be caught around the Causeway area while using set lines with jigs and nightcrawlers or maggots. The ice around the Causeway area is only 3-4 inches thick and has been getting softer over the last few days. Lake Helena has open water showing in some areas of the lake and around 4-5 inches of ice in some spots but not many anglers have been heading out onto the ice lately. Most of Hauser still has open water or unstable ice conditions. Chris Hurley, FWP, Helena
Holter: No safe ice. Most of the reservoir including the lower end near the dam remains open water or has unstable ice conditions. Chris Hurley, FWP, Helena
