Super User Catt Posted January 15, 2009 Super User Posted January 15, 2009 Ok I'll bite Cool you got a fine boat, sorry about your grandpa, can't help with your fishing since you never told us where you at. Quote
GonzoFishing Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Suks about your grandpa. As far as the boat goes, I'd bundle up and take it out. I know its cold up there right now but I'd still do it. I wouldnt be able to resist, unless there is some mechanical type reason that you shouldnt be boating in 14 degree weather Quote

Usually by then, most of the ice is melted off the main lake and you should be looking at daytime temps in the mid 40's to low 50's. Fishing will be slow but when you get bit, 90% of the time it will be a toad. Shoot me a PM sometime, there are a few of us on here that live in WV that fish together quite often. I even get together with some of the members from the surrounding states, it makes for awesome fishing trips. Quote
IdahoLunkerHunter Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 If I had a boat i'd be out fishing right now even though its 35 degress out. ;D Quote
farmpond1 Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Not knowing where you are from, I can't really say how advisable it is to take your boat out. If the water is cold, however, I wouldn't recommend you take a new (to you) boat out. Nor should you go out if you aren't very experienced at boating. A spill in frigid water can be fatal in a hurry. Call me a wuss but that's my humble opinion. Quote
