How bad or how good? Depends on how you look at it. There is ice, some of it you can walk on and some you can't. There's not a lot of shooting going on there right now if that helps.

There are open holes on all of the big ponds, and for the most part I would say the ice isn't thick enough to walk on. It depends on where you go, though.

I went out today without the boat and I couldn't find ice anywhere good enough to walk on with it being rained on all morning. Barely any shooting at all and only managed one drake mallard. Everything is sitting out in the middle of unit 1 and there is no good way to get to them or even set up unless you have a layout boat and getting a boat in there period is long shot.

Drive down the main dike and it will take all of 5 seconds to figure out where the hunt is. Then ask yourself how hard you want to work for it and how muddy you want to get. The potential could be epic. Birds of all flavors.

There is always coffin blinds for sale on KSL.

I figured it out today walked way to far for a hen spoonie, I think most of the birds are gone!

I think we need more water in Unit 1. Pretty tough to hunt a 3 square mile mud flat. Chukars are looking better all the time.

Agree! They sure got in a hurry to drain all the units this year.
