    From what I have been told, there is essentially no ice in any of the backwater areas. Can’t comment on the water temp, however.

    Most if not all ramps are blocked off if launching a boat.

    No ice in back channels. No idea on temps.

    Is it even safe to launch or fish the area right now?

    Seen the alma float is open and they are catching some fish.

    I was down on the nelson dike road the other day before this crap weather hit shore fishing for a good 5-6 hrs. Switched around between 3 of the little lot/canoe launches all day. Seen some fish but didnt catch any but as of then it was deffinately safe from shore. After this snow i guess its hard to say now tho
