Time to begin guessing iceout on North Park lakes!

 

Okay, just read the following update from North Park Anglers fly shop in Walden. Those wise and crafty fishermen are predicting the ice on Lake John and the Delaneys will start to crack open about April 20th!

They could be wrong; no one's predictions ever seem to come true, but it's time to get out your long johns and maybe tie on a bit stronger leader. Here's what North Park Anglers has to say:   

Hello, and welcome to the North Park Anglers’ fishing report.  We are excited to start fishing but old man winter hasn’t let go just yet.  A good portion of the North Park valley is still covered in snow.  All of the local lakes are still frozen with over a foot of ice.  Some of the smaller tributary streams are starting to open but the North Platte is still locked up.  We are hoping to see fishable water by the 2nd to 3rd week of April.  The current weather forecast is calling for more snow and cool temps which will stall the melt-off.  We’re predicting the lakes to crack sometime around April 20th but will keep a close eye and them and will update our report as things change.  For more info please call the shop at (970) 723-4215.
