On March 10, the water had risen quite a bit. There is open water from the Boy Scout camps all the way to where the fingers divide below the observation point. The fingers leading toward Causey Estates and in the back towards the inlet are still covered in ice; however, the edges are very soft and there is a bit of open water. There is a thin layer of slush on top of the ice. We do not recommend venturing out on the ice at this time. Angling pressure continues to be very light. You can launch float tubes and other small watercraft along the dike.
