The lake has some open water near the spillway and by the Woods Creek area. There was no open water by the dam. But please, stay off of the ice. It is unstable and thinning fast. The Caples Lake Resort is looking to be in full operation for boat launching, rentals and dining by Memorial weekend. For more information go to capleslakeresort.com.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
