For those who are curious, I went there today. Unlikely to be open before Sat or Sun. Ice still fairly thick 80' feet out from shore. The rock I threw bounced without chipping ice. Probably still at least 3" thick.

yea my cousin said in front of their house there is some open water, but the thickness of the big patches is still a few ft thick in some spots.

Prob could be completely iced out by the middle of next wk if the weather stays this way

Today is my birthday and I received a great present. Roger Bouwkamp called a few minutes ago…Murray is open! Be out this afternoon. More bonus musky fishing!

Happy B-day Charlie! I'm heading out to Austin in a few hours myself, hoping to get my first musky of 2012.

Happy Birthday Charlie, how many candles on that cake, or do we have to call the fire dept? 🙄

Wish I read this before I talked to you, Charlie! Happy Birthday, young man! What does that make you — 44? 45?

Received an even better present than just an open lake now, eh? Cool

Steve,

Yes, smoke alarms going off everywhere! Birthday #64. And yes, Jim, I got many presents today. An open lake and two muskies!

Don't mean to sound sentimental, but I nearly died in Jan 2010 when I had a stroke. I've lived to see four more grandchildren come into the world, for a total of five. The oldest one sang Happy Birthday to me today. I am B-L-E-S-S-E-D!!
