Last Tuesday March 28th there was about 15-20 feet of open water on the North end along the rocks and by the dock. Enough to fish, be quite a bit more room now im guessing.

Drove out yesterday.

Waste of time and gas.

Ice free but dirtier than the bow during runoff.

Thick dark brown chocolate milk .

Wind was out of control, drove around the perimeter and promptly drove away.

That's nothing , we used to call it just the lake turning over after the winter , bottom ground thawing, wont hurt the fish , mostly just floating on top.
Lots of lakes same thing

Good to know it's open, as far as water clarity I can't say I've ever seen it very clear, it's always kinda murky.

I agree it is just turning over. It will clean up in the next few weeks. That being said it never is a clear lake.
