Typically, your only concern would be crib reef. Stay away from there. If the lake is rolling, you can see them roll over the boulders on Crib.

Will be pulling the boat from Indiana, which launch would be the best for us...we usually launch out of South Bass on vacation....thanks..

Give Wild Wings, Fenwicks a go, WW is about a 5 min ride to the early spring jig bite, 10.00 launch fee or get a season pass for 95.00.

is there plenty of parking room at WW and do they have a clean station?

Yup. Both WW & Fenwick have plenty of parking & both have cleaning stations.
