Little Drive, DC Jordy

[Gone Forever]

Fished DC, just from shore throwing spinners and spoons. Not any safe ice I could see, couple of boats out on the lake, dam end.
Wallsburg had ice, but looked bad, I caught a fat feisty one from the inlet area.
Rainbow bay was open but from the state park and island area it looked like thin and broken ice with open spots.

Jordonelle is pretty much ice free.  There may be a little up the Rock Cliff arm but not that I could see from the highway so it was way back in if it was. Managed another fat feisty bow on a small spoon from the launch side.
Windy, from the south but if you could find a sheltered spot it wasn't bad.

Thanks for the report. Jon and I had hoped for a last Rockport ice trip tomorrow, but it sounds too iffy. We might end up at Jory or DC. Glad you found a couple to play!

I was thinking of checking out RP, but when I saw all of the open water o9n the other lakes I figured it and Echo would be grey and have holes or breaking up from the wind.  I did not see for myself, though.
I don't think I would trust any ice I didn't have to snowmobile to get to the lake. (high altitude).

I'm not sure where the guys on DC launched but there was a dock in at the Lakehouse, but the ice looked as though it had it locked in, maybe the wind from earlier in the day.  I hope they were able to get off the lake ok.
