    Welcome to IDA!

    I haven’t been down to check it out…but with this rain…I’m not man enough to go out on a river.

    Sure would be nice to get some days below 10 degrees. It would make me feel better..again, I haven’t been out checking any lakes either.

    I went out on Wednesday (got skunked once again) and there was 7″-8″ of ice and guys were out there with ‘wheelers. Hopefully the weather stays cool or gets colder to make some more ice.

    Anybody know of ramps open to launch? I went through Windmill at 8:30 am and there is about ten feet of ice left. I saw two boats out by catfish bar and wondered how they got out there?
    Be careful, the ten feet that was left looked like slush!

    The boat launch in Prescott should be open but how far north you can go I’m not sure, haven’t been out for a couple weeks.
