killerbe20 Posted March 23, 2011 Share 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 Share 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.
