Anyone know the current ice conditions on the Iowa great lake (big spirit lake, west okoboji, etc)? And also does anyone have an idea of when the ice will be melted?

We get another good two day rain and she'll move and buckle with the wind that always blows down there. I'v elaunched in West Boji in March a few times dodging ice to get from spot to spot. Even had to switch ramps one year! Gonna be early this year, finish sharpening those hooks!

Wow...that surprises me. The ice has been completely off all the lakes for about two weeks here in central Iowa. What a difference 170 miles makes...
