NE Marina

Was going to make our first trip up for the year.
 
Does anyone know the condition or have already put in a NE marina this year?  I assume ice would be long gone but what about floating debris?
 
I would normally call and talk to the kind folks at the marina but they are on vacation at the moment.
 
Any info anyone could share would be greatly appreciated.

     Right now the water is a bit too cold yet for them to be really active and being the feeding before laying eggs. They drop their eggs around 50 degrees (10-12 Celsius). Right now the lake is around 41 degrees.
     
     Watch for that magic 42 degrees. For a laker, 40 is the low limit tolerance, 42 is optimum, and 55 is about all they can stand. Once they lay their eggs they will drop back. Steelies are bit more tolerable with the low preferred temp of 42, 45 optimal and 62 is the warmest they like. This all comes from my Fish-hawk temp charts. They have never let me down. As with all salmon and trout species, find the right temp and they will be there.
     
    Walleye are 50 for lower, 67 optimal and 76 is as warm as they like.

    Actually, Lake Trout spawn in the Fall (as is typical for all Char species) when the water temperature drops to 50°. I'm not so sure why the bite is so good in April and May, perhaps they're in shallower to feed on Emerald Shiners and other nearshore forage as opposed to the Rainbow Smelt which is their only source of forage when they're in deep water.

    Went out of NE Sunday, Didnt have any luck with the lakers but got some steelies and a Walleye. Talked to one other boat and they got one laker. Got the itch taken care of anyways.
