As you can see, there is still a fair bit of ice. I walked out about 100 yds here and that was about all I would risk...so it's slowly thinning out. You can also make out a creek flow to the right of this pic which is why there is some ice breaking up there. We are expecting 10-15 cm of snow over the next few days, and this morning it was rather chilly out.....so I am thinking ice off around Mid May? May have to ice fish for Walleye Opener....lol.

I just wanted to throw this out there...last year at this time we could take our boat out for a spin..... Today, as I look out the window...I see significant snowfall with about 5 inches of new snow on the ground. WTF....lol. It will be interesting to see the effect this has on the Walleye (and other species).

Just FYI, the Lavase River looked good and had a good level of water for April. Callander Bay looks like it has 5 to 10 inches left. SKRAMO
