I thought the same thing. I don’t know how these toxic algae are distributed in the water column but the prevailing wind does blow everything toward the launch.I think they need to test it somewhere other than the boat launch.
It's open.
You've seen me cast a fly, are you sure you want to sit behind me while I flail away?Maybe if the weather is really shitty this weekend which it is forecast to be, we should row someone’s drift boat around the lake looking for bows and browns. Just a thought…….

Has anyone fished or driven by it lately and know if it's ice free?
Howd it fish by the ranger's cabin, Rex?Well, as of 11:30 a.m. on Saturday 1/20, Pass Lake was almost totally iced-over:

There appeared to be a little open water near the ranger's cabin, and a little around the edges, as seen in this photo. The ice must be fairly thick to hold those logs that people have thrown on the ice. Campbell Lake was also almost totally iced-over, and Cranberry Lake was about 75% iced-over. Pretty amazing! Don't see the west-side lakes frozen over like this very often.
I didn't give it a try, as sneaking through the ranger's backyard to access that water wasn't a good idea...Howd it fish by the ranger's cabin, Rex?
True, west side lakes don't see the freeze like that often. Yesterday I drove by some of the lakes near Smokey Point and most still had good amounts of ice but not all. View attachment 100456
