The past few days have been sunny with temperatures in the low to upper 40's. Be very careful if you are planning an ice fishing trip within the next couple days. The ice is very slushy and although there are still a few brave fisherman, I am going to now wait until ice out to go. If you do feel brave, avoid the dock (Dobbins Landing) and do not venture out of the fourth parking lot on Presque Isle. Stay in the shallows and fish off of the first parking lot or in Misery Bay where the ice is still hanging on. By this weekend, there may not be any safe ice and I will try to bring you a full report Friday evening.
On the goodside, the streams have begun to thaw and soon thousands of fresh steelhead trout will be venturing up the streams. I would estimate that in another week or so, the local streams will be fishable. Good luck fishin' and don't go out if it doesn't look safe.
