I’ll need to decide which way to head by tomorrow (Wednesday) for a trip somewhere Thursday. P4 is about as far North as I can go and P16 would be as far south. Any comments would be great. May even stay over night if needed. 
sick day 
Thanks Guys
I cant tell you that our bite is “hot” by any means. We did have a couple boats with limits of eaters, perhaps some improvement over the weekend bite. Maybe some of warmer water temp southern neighbors have a report?
Fished L&d 18 today was very slow managed 4 keepers had to put in at Henderson creek access on Illinois side.Called Fairport fish hatchery they said Muscatine ramp & Davenport is open might want to confirm.Fished 18 on sunday did very well
I would definately go down to P4 if I could. With the melting snow the oxygen levels will be skyrocketing and to make it even better its supposed to rain thursday. P4 is the place to be.
Concerning the snow melt water, is this a plus for walleye fishing?
There should be more dissolved oxygen in the melt water but it is colder and less dense. I read a IA Conservationist article on winter fly fishing recently that said the cold melt water shut down any midge hatches and the trout fishing. Since the densest (heaviest) water is at 39 deg F is that what tends to collect in the scour holes?
What are your thoughts on temperature vs oxygen?
I heard there are boats on the water below the Genoa dam. I would guess they are putting in at the power plant.
