Hi
Might go fish De Pere Sunday.....anyone know if the launch behind the Dairy Queen is open yet or open enough to launch at least...or is it all froze up yet...I know sometimes it just freezes but enough to launch ok....
Just did not want to drive up there if it was all frozen and have to drive across state to open water elsewhere. That happened last year!
Thanks much,
Jenn

Jenn the landing is still open today friend had to break a little ice might be tougher tomarrow the problem is tho they took the docks out so it make it a little harder to launch take a long line so that you can get past your trailer

Use the part sounth end of the ramp. The wall there has at least 4 feet of water under it and there is a board in a positon on the wall that works well as a ladder for getting in the boat. Take a look and you will see what I mean. We slugged 'em there on Tuesday on the back end of the deep water in 22 to 23 feet of water. 1/4oz pink and white tipped with shiners.
Stay warm, good luck!
