Well I just got back from Lake Davis and it's looking GREAT - finally. What a difference a week makes. I was out last Saturday and except for a ribbon of water around the east side it was frozen all the way across. Not anymore....
The West Side Road is still not open...
This was taken last week 4-17-2010
One week later 4-25-2010
This is the entrance to Honker...
And this is some guy who thought he'd give Honker a try...at least he wasn't pulling a boat...
Snow Creek had quite a few fish in it which is good news until the poachers show up...
And this is a picture of the Honker Boat Ramp...
The south end still has a bit of ice but it's on its way out...
And as LT pointed out the middle and north end is completely free of ice...
The Mallard Ramp is open - notice the water level - we still could use more water...
People were out but not in big numbers. The usual spots Grasshopper, Mallard, Coots and coves north. I didn't wet a line - I was just there to check things out and run the dog. I did see one guy out in a tube at Mallard and there were no boats in the water but you could easily get a pram in at Mallard if you so desired.
Again as LT mentioned the fish were in the shallow water so a pram / tube isn't really necessary. This should be a very good year!!!
