Macatawa had very good visibility of 2 to 3 feet yesterday in the west end as I shore-cast for a little while there. Boat access was still socked in then and doesn't quite look open yet this afternoon but this lake opens quickly. It was open yesterday roughly from Tiara Yachts westward.
Don't forget, Round is one of those lakes that closes on the last day of November.
I just got done driving around Austin. The whole SW end of the lake is open, unfortunately everything around the access is still iced up. There is about 30 feet of open water right at the launch, but you can't actually go anywhere. I'll check back tonight and tomorrow and let everyone know what I find.
Austin is 90% open water! Problem is the 10% of the ice is blown up in chunks against the ramp. I think if you were bold you could probably be able to get a boat in. Should be fishable by tomorrow I would think. I know I'm going tomorrow after work ice or not, I'll find a way to get my boat in somehow.
