Water temps--when can I get back to water work?

[unable to retrieve full-text content]

Lots of unfrozen lakes, but I'm guessing they are too cold at the moment, but I'm not sure. Anybody think it's ok to send a dog out in water this coming weekend, if the air temp is in the 50s?

As a more general question, when do you guys think the water is warm enough to begin training in water again?

Lots of us duck hunters send our dogs out breaking ice, skim ice, etc. And that's in and out of water while sitting in a blind for hours. I'd imagine a 20-30 min training session in cold...
