Just drove around and checked the ice. Still locked up with a little open water south of the island on 43. CLR still locked up with a few feet of shoreline melt. Took a couple whacks to get through it but off the dock at CLR there was still 1.5 inches of clear ice. Think if we get some cold weather this will be the first place to get on at. Did not check palm rd.

Did notice over by the boathouse that there was a shad kill.

I have noticed that it seems every year there is a shad kill by the boathouse every year. Normally I dont notice it until later in the spring. I wonder whats up with that.
