killerbe20 Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Just saw a news report stating the Bender Park launch will be closed until May 1st for dredging. Apparently the fire department had to rescue a boater stranded on a sandbar prompting the closure and dredging. That will make a lot of brown trout happy!A couple years ago i read some good spring brown reports on here. Unfortunately I can not recall who wrote the reports. Just a warning if anyone is planning on coming over to fish you will have to launch in Racine, although i do not know if the ramps are even in yet. I'll try to find out today.

jimcr Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 At our meeting earlier this month , they had thought it might be open by the third week in April. but it did depend on the weather and when they started the dredging. Its been a long road to get this done, and it still needs a permanent solution , and from what I understand , a break wall is 4000.00 a foot.
