Just wondering if it’s free of ice ,I checked last Sunday and it was locked in for the most part.I might check tomorrow unless someone tells me it’s wide open

Any idea what the water temp is?

[PEARCHEYES]

Got the big skunk today,with exception of a nice bass.Water temp is up and down .It was close to 50 yesterday and today back down to 42.The perch are definitely staging.All I got yesterday were females.The males will soon follow them up into the shallow flats.Water temp I believe for them to start spawning is 45 -50.

I noticed that on Webster this weekend with water temps muskie fishing. Yesterday was 46-50 and today I was barely able to find 45. Nothing boated but it sure felt nice to get out on the water.

I was in my 12foot Hyde drift boat. Fished from about 9:00 till noon, but since I don’t have a outboard on my boat (trolling motor only), I usually just fish the access bay area. Usually can find a few there but not this year, so far! I talked to a couple guys that said they did good on Crappie. Looked like they were over towards the “Slip”. Hex

Fished most of the day 1 nice bass and 1 decent perch .Water needs to warm up a bit

Last fall perch have yet to find the piggies this spring
