Duster have you found out if the ice is off Twin Valley? I would like to get the boat out after this crappy weather is done.

From what i was told on a different post, is that Twin valley and travers are free of ice, from my understanding, Now i never heard anything about the boat launch, Im waiting to here back if the bay is still frozen where the boat launch is. A guy said he fished and did good, so i hope shes ready for the boat as soon as this crappy weather leaves.

Rumor has it that next weekend were back at +15. The boat launch there can be pretty muddy because of it being at the bottom of a coulee. I was there earlier in the season to let the dog run around and even though up top it was dry it was a mud bog down there. This snow may leave it a bit sloppy at the launch.

Hi Buckwheat.
It's South of Nanton about 15km then you head East on the 529. The lake is not in the regs as it is open year round and you use the general regs for PP1. Here's some info for everyone else, I just had my ***** handed to me on another forum because I mentioned that earlier in the week that the lunch was a mud bog. Apparently it is now dry and good to go. I did not take my boat because I never thought the launch would be ready to use this weekend, but I did catch a dozen small ones with the fly rod from shore where I have access.
Dodger.
