Super User Swamp Girl Posted February 6 Super User Posted February 6 I finally went fishing, returning to the pond where I own property. I liked the drive because there was no traffic. I don't know why that was so, but I enjoyed having the road to myself: I arrived at the driveway to the pond. I was so excited to see the water. I couldn't quite see it yet, but soon. A walk through the woods took me to the wetlands between the water and me. Open water! At last!!! I walked the boardwalk to my canoe. She was ready and I was too: I dragged her out to open water and trolled a deep diving crankbait, thinking the bass might be deep since I was fishing a wee early. However, the crankbait malfunctioned and would not dive. It worked like a surface lure and a mighty lousy surface lure. Not surprisingly, I was skunked. Rapala will be getting a strongly worded letter from me! 7 5 Quote

Super User AlabamaSpothunter Posted February 7 Super User Posted February 7 It sure is pretty, but I'd simply freeze to death. I mean I'm freezing just looking at that 😆 1 Quote

I really did drive down to the pond yesterday...in the snow. I miss it that much. In the bottom pic, where the marsh ends and there's nothing but white beyond the plants, that's the pond. You can see it in the second pic too. Meanwhile, I just snowblew the backyard for the second time in two days so that my pup can do his business. I don't clear it entirely. I just clear paths for him. I make a maze that he loves to explore! 2 Quote
Super User DogBone_384 Posted February 7 Super User Posted February 7 I was betting you got on a plane and went south! The only open water I know of is the at the end of my street … the Atlantic ocean. 1 Quote
