FRESH NEWS: Ice is disappearing on Potholes

The current water level on Potholes Reservoir is 1,043.05 feet, coming up 0.3 feet this past week. We are 3.45 feet below full pool. We have open water on Potholes Reservoir! The State Park boat launch is usable. The sand dunes still have ice, as do the edges from Blythe Bay to the face of the dam coming across the face of MarDon Resort, out about 100 yards. The main pool is ice-free. Lind Coulee has sizable ice coverage with open spots. We have highs forecast in the mid-40s with lows above freezing. It’s looking like we made it through winter and should have a normal to early spring. Call the MarDon Resort tackle store for current conditions and fishing information at 509-346-2651.
