Raider4ever Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 What's the ice look like? Could we be looking at an early ice-out? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 After noon tomorrow, "forecasted" temps will not dip below freezing for the forseeable future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rundrave Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 some edges froze back up in the last week and as of last night on a smaller lake in NW Iowa that I checked. Going to be windy on Sunday, and some rain and warm temps next week will hopefully finish them off and we can hit open water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Thanks for the update. That's what I'm hoping. Trying to get down to Spirit that week before Walleye opener for some warm water bass fishing. If it is a mid-March break-up, that gives it over a month to warm up before I get there. SWEET!

Reid G Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Any open water update on Spirit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 The Okoboji webcams show bad ice with some open water. I called Kabele's (sp?) yesterday and they said there's still a foot on Spirit and were guessing two weeks. I'm guessing later next week with the forecast of high temps, wind, and rain. Okoboji daught comm has a couple decent webcams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid G Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Good deal, thanks for the update. It seems that Spirit usually opens slightly earlier than East and West. So watching the ice deteriorate on the East and West cams, always gets me curious about Big Spirit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Ice went out on the Okobojies either yesterday or today. Web cams show open water. YEA!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
