Springfield Lake Ice Over

Yesterday, I got off work (got to love working for a local university ). hoping to use my snow day to go fish, I headed down to Springfield lake. Just about the whole lake was froze over.

Are they running any water down there?

I didn't see anything running and by the looks of it, they hadn't for a few days. The outlet was iced over with snow on top of it.

This winter weather needs to stop already and become spring.

I'm hoping that with the cold temps we've been having they will start running more water. I absolute love fishing there when it's running.

My plan was to fish that area, yesterday because of the colder temps. The ice put a damper on that. I'm tired of this winter too, spring cannot come soon enough.

I swore I remember hearing something about the Power Station shutting down for maintenance but cannot find anything in writing that says this. I have tried to call and no one seems to give me an answer bc no water has been coming out for at least a week. Anyone have any knowledge of a "shutdown"?

[crappiekayaker]

I have not heard anything but that would explain why its iced over.

[Sean_Reynolds]

Is it still iced over?

[crappiekayaker]

The warm water outlet is fishable now.
