Last weekend I heard of a few folks trying to get out of Bark Bay with no luck.. Last week the marina was still chuck full of ice in Corny.. Could be open now though with the creeks being high and the water drowning the ice..

I took the tour today and here is my report:

I think you could get a boat in today at Port Wing but I dont know what it will be like tomorrow because there was some 2-4 foot ice chunks floating around. Bark bay was full of floating chunks of ice corny and sand bay had open water in sight but the landings were still locked in with ice. Around the islands was still locked in with some dark looking ice and accesses were still frozen in but the ferry was up and running so there was a little open water out there.

Worst time of year.

Too late to ice fish.

Too early to get a boat out.

Maybe I will hit the Brule this week before or after work.

All my ice fishing gear is stored as I thought spring was arriving.

Foolish me

No problem hook, I'm hoping someone will report from this weekend because I would like to get out on Tuesday - if I do I will report again. Where are the open ramps guys?

A friend was out of port wing last friday, boated 4 fish. said he went down to the brule and back, might have been testin the boat to make sure it will be ready for this week. He also said the water temp was about 39 deg. Is there a desired temp anybody preferrs for spring fishin?

[longcaster]

the warmer the better! - the warmest we found this weekend was only 36.5
