I decided to head out today as the weather was at its highest it has been in months. Just a heads up, do not follow what I did, the creek I hit was frozen solid, not a single area to fish. I do not want to see you guys waste your time. Tight lines everyone.

And you really expected it to be open water?  It will still be a week or two before you start seeing water flowing

[Hucho Hucho]

Even if it does it is going to be muddy as hell for another couple weeks after that.

The Niagara is open but that's about it...

Freezer, thanks for the update. It looks and sounds like the ice was extra thick on the tribs this year after the coldest february in 125 years.

Took a walk yesterday nothing but a giant sheet of ice underneath a metric $#!@ ton of runoff with the exception of a few small pockets

[GoodenTight]

east is slow flowing waters, there might be some rivers in the west with faster flowing waters opened up.

[Nick Evans]
