On the Walleye sites
They posted that Bolles is open (ice free)
But Sterling is still ice over

I thought you couldn't go in there anymore because of security issues.

Do you mean the Monroe hot ponds?

[Manxfishing]

I'd guess were talking about the Monroe hot pond
It's the only one on Lake Erie in Michigan water

As far as i know
there's no security issues, they do close the shore fishing down over the winter thou.

I was just trying to clarify since people are still going in their and fishing, I thought maybe he was asking about another place maybe nearby or something since he didn't specify where 'there' was? That's all.

Frank and I were there on Feb 10th. If the waves wouldnt have been a little rough, we would have made the hot ponds easy. His 16 ft alum didnt like the 3 footers.

I went to Bolles Harbor today and saw 6 or 7 vehicles with boat trailers at the launch. None of the docks are in.  I then went up to the plant and looked and saw  a couple of boats out. I saw fish jumping also. The Monroe access fishing site is not open but the Bolles Harbor DNR launch was with no docks in place.
