Thanks for the info. Trying to figure out where the ice is thick enough to try.

Yep they are always open and usually keep them pretty clean. Water gets deep quick especially right off the ramp across from the marina.

i park at the gravel lot on rock spring road then head west. haven't check the east end of the lake yet. if i get a chance today i will head out to the boat ramp by the dam and check and let everyone know.
