100 days to go

[FryDog62]

I don’t know which came first, A-Jay’s ice-out prediction, or my proclamation of 100 days until I fish open water in the spring.  Don’t know, but I like the way he thinks!

 

So here’s my annual proclamation that in 100 days I hitch up the boat and head out of state to fish (even if open water, our season in Minnesota is closed until mid-May).  
 

However, I did see a recent “Strike King-Fish Hard” episode with a guy from Minnesota that hitched up the boat last February and drove south to Tennessee, Alabama, Texas.  That gets a guy thinking!!

Ol boy you saw from Minnesota's got the right idea. However, in Tennessee I can't fish today because I have deadlines.

 

Oh well. I probably don't need to be out in all this rain with a chest cold anyway.

When I went by the boat ramp near me this weekend there were at least 50 boats both days just out of the 1 ramp.

Of course we were 72 degrees on Sat and 63 on Sun

That makes us northern guys jealous where I live at the southern end of Lake Michigan waves were at 22 ft and near freezing weather has been so unpredictable

Grease that boat axle up and do it. If you're gonna hit Tennessee & Alabama you may as well slide over to Georgia.

Would be an awesome trip.  Will be doing some short ones myself here hopefully in a couple weeks or less.  Kind of depends on doc reports...this is the year of chasing some spots I think.

Safe travels to ya...

Were there any idiots surfing?

I remember getting bad waves on Lake Erie in the winter and it always brought out a few crazies wanting to surf.

I'll leave the thawing north in April and head for guntersville for 10 days or so.
