Warmer Temps Predicted

[no limit]

Ten day forecast is encouraging for Murphysboro. If warming trend continues I hope to be fishing Kincaid in a couple weeks.

Any current reports appreciated especially water conditions. Thinking north end and bays froze.

I haven't been over to Kinkaid but I drove over Crab Orchard and Rend Lake today on my way home from Chicago, and they were both completely frozen over! Odds are that Kinkaid is mostly froze over as well. May be a few weeks before she opens up to fish!!
