Well....

I guess winter is here for good. Went down to the local pond to de-stress and throw a few lures. The whole shoreline is frozen, not thick, but enough to screw the pooch. Don't know if I'll make it 'til spring. That BR road trip is looking good!!!

I know what you mean Allan.

I got back from vegas sunday and decided to do a little fishing down here but got the same results. Hard water.

But things have moderated a little now and I think I'll try a local resevior tommorow (Thanks Giving day) figuring no water company people would be around.

I'll let you know if I catch anything or get arrested, LOL

Come over to RI, we have the Scituate. Supposed to be great fishing, give it a shot and let us know how you make out.

Not frozen here in Jersey, a little surface ice early that melts off quick. Gonna hit it as much as I can between now and Sunday. I am getting pretty good at Hooked on Fishing on the Wii though. (even though my 12 year daughter whips me at it consistently).

Been about three weeks since my last fish. Can always go for some nice pickerals in this weather.

Unfortunatly Tin I woke up late and the "honey do list" was too long to over come.

I noticed your from an area I know somewhat. I know you dont do much fun fishing but have you ever fished that little pond on Hopkins Hill rd east of 95 near the gravel pit?? My wifes cousin lives just up the road from there and I always wanted to fish it so he took me last summer.

I caught my first pickeral there a number of LMB. Nothing big just fun stuff

I feel your winter pain!!!  The water isn't completely frozen up her yet, but the fishing is dead.  I just put my boat in storage---put it off as long as possible!!!  The worst part about winter is that I have 4 new rods that I can't use 'til spring.

I guess I'll try for some winter Steelhead in the Oswego River.  They're big and fun, but still not a bass :D!!!

I feel your pain man!  I went several times to the local park lake and tossed around a spinner bait to the few open, un-frozen, spots.  Mostly just getting the hang of my baitcaster reels - just started throwing last year in earnst.  My neighbors think I'm crazy but I just need to get out...

I'm still sane. Last Saturday i went to my favorite tackle store and cried for two hours over all the pretty baits that are sooooo lonely. Then went and drove by the lake and cried for another 1/2 hour because I couldn't see water. Only blowing snow. All the trees are dead, the geese have flown south, etc, etc. Then I came home and was gonna work in the garage, but it was 9 degrees. that's okay. I really don't NEED fishing to maintain sanity. Did I really say that? OMG! I must be worse off than I think. I'll move to Texas and I'll fit right in. :D :D :D

Don't get me started, we have a lot of ice left on our lakes. You know how many time I have gone out and had a beer while sitting in my winterized bass boat. I actually went out side and practice flipping and pitching into pockets in the snow bank :D

Ooh Ya! Got 9 bass today on a small rapala huskyjerk. All dinks, but I could careless. Also got a crappie. Fished the rapala really slow, "jerk jerk 4sec pause, jerk jerk 5sec pause" etc. You really had to watch the line, all but 1 of the fish I caught was from paying attention to the line and noticing it slightly twitch, or tightening up barely. Meaning 90% of the fish hit when the lure was paused.
