Anyone been by Port Wing or Bark Bay latey? Was wondering if you can get a big boat in yet?

Loons Foot landing and the shore shore is still locked up with ice. Looks like the ice goes at an angle starting at the Canal park in Duluth and goes to or past the Amnicon River.

Ran I hear both Bark Bay and Port Wing are open. Those I have talked to have stated its going to be a tough year to get the big boats in. The water level is quite low, I know of one boat that had to back to the muffler then gun the boat in reverse to get it off the trailer at Bark Bay and it was only 18'.

I will be getting out in the next 6 days, probably won't know where I will be putting in till the time comes. If you go anywhere keep us posted.

Thanks,

I was by Port Wing a week ago and it was still frozen. I will keep my eyes open in my travels though.

I've noticed how low the water is too. Its just looks horrible. Lookin at the harbor and river theres mud flats, points and islands ive never seen out of the water before. Makes me kinda glad I've got all roller trailers.

Im seeing logs, rocks, sand bars, bikes and fishing rods in spots I havent been able to see in a long long time. Heck I have to walk of the bank 15' in spots just to get to water.

We need the frost to break and get some run off going. Not all at once though or we will have a mudfest like last year.
