Chippewa Flowage

Would anybody have a Chippewa Flowage water temperature to report, and/or if you would know of an additional resource to find this information out. Thanks.

Shore line from Winter Dam boat landing. 

Any body have any photos on shore lines ?

What is the current water depth on the flowage and is a full water level expected by opening day?

Why has there been such an abundance of weeds entering Squaw Bay during the fall of the year?

Just returned from a week at the CHIP, I fish the WEST SIDE. My Third trip of the year, I'm finding the panfish CRAPPIE/BLUEGILL all to be on the small side and I don't target them for a fish fry since they are so small. PERCH were a good target as they were large early this year, but I did not find them on my last trip. Best was BASS and NORTHERN.

Wouldn’t that be 2.11 feet low?

The last report I saw was from Jenk’s Bait Shop at down 2.5 feet. Was on the Chip last week and it was noticeable as our group dinged a few props and heard many similar stories from other boaters.

How's the water level's out on the big Chip?
