If you are planning on fishing Lucky Peak this saturday, you may want to know that the lake will be the site of the Boise Ironman Race swim and the roads near and on the dam will be used for part of the biking portions of the race. First wave of swimmers will be in the water around Barkley Bay boat ramp and in front of the dam at 12 noon. Last wave starts at 12:45. For more info on the course and road closers go to www.ironmanboise.com. I fished the lake last year on race day and was glad I got there early (6am), launched at Spring Shores, and stayed till after 3pm. If you do go I wouldn't plan on driving past the dam anytime between 11am till around 3pm. Finally, if you get a late start and are heading up later than 10am, look out for racers warming up on their bikes along warm springs road and hwy 21. They make terrible hood ornaments. laugh hyst
