Ice all over on east sake and west audubon. Some shore line showing on both about 30 yards or so of open water

anybody traveling 83 across between Sak and Audubon in next day or two looking for an ice update for Audubon. Thanks

This is what the dam currently looks like. It was more open the other day, guessing that NW wind pushed a lot of ice over there.

I was hoping to fish the East end this weekend but doesn't look like that's going to happen.

After driving by tuesday..I would say this weekend isn't going to happen with a boat...unless it's an ice breaker. Alot of ice still on the lake.. but with winds and high temps and rain...maybe? Doubtful though

Better take advantage of it while we can, as I don't think that ramp will be open all summer unless we get some moisture or way too much rain down south.

Ice is half gone from new town to lunds you could fish depending on what way the wind blows the slab bays are open

Went by devils lake today, haybale bay still locked up, went all the way to the west end of the lake everything was still froze except for the bridges, 1/4 to1/2 mile of open water on the south side of each. The ice on the flats was getting pretty dang dark so maybe Sunday on some spots

Lake appears to be open from New Town down to Shell and south to about halfway to Nishu from Indian Hills, coworker was out at Indian Hills yesterday and was water as far as he could see short what was piled up on the shorelines from the wind. However, the bay at the her ramp was still locked up so no boats out of there this weekend yet. Imagery from yesterday somewhat confirmed this, but it was hard to tell for sure. Today looks to be a good imagery day!
