Does WB still have a lot of open water in and outside the north marina?

It is totally open now.
Water level is even raising.

Thanks. I ended up taking the boat out yesterday, and ventured around to check out the lay of the lake. Ice free everywhere I went. No fish though. There seems to be an abundance of large shad outside the north marina.

We saw some of those also, it looked like the bald eagles were fighting over 1 that washed onto shore north of the marina

Initially I thought we stumbled upon small schools of crappie, but they were moving too fast and they were busting the surface as if they were being chased. My buddy had, what I think to be a big catfish break his line, but his drag wasn't properly set.
