I would love to launch on Sunday. Anyone know if the state launch is open, free of ice?

As of 1 hour ago the state park is open. Is ice free except for some ice frozen on the dock pilings just above water level. Might want to bring a sledge hammer to knock it off if it does not melt tomorrow. Also, because the lake level is down, watch out for your boat going under the dock and taking a beating, especially in south winds.

Stopped at the south end (Hammondsport) ramp at the motel. It is wide open too and they are just now finishing extending the dock 10 feet. It has bumpers almost to water level so no problem with boat going under the dock. State park needs to do the same. The motel ramp has a $10 launch fee but much less bouncing around with south winds than the state ramp. Quite a few guys fishing from shore at the south end.

Only ice I saw on the lake was between Penn Yan and Keuka College. A number of ice fishers at the Penn Yan end. Hope this helps.
