well guys ive relented to the pressure of spring and cleaned out the car stored the buckets and hung the sled
i tried willing, praying, cajoleing, and it still has not stopped the onslaught of thinning ice. got a call from my good friend joel at cedar and he said the ice is unsafe. ive also been told by the big dawg to give it up.time to get the other buckets and rods out should be powerlining for salmon and trout by the weekend look out fishes here we come. been a slice made some good freinds and had some good times but its over for me ill see you on the ice next year!

Sadly to say, I got the call on Sunday.

Good news though. I told my 17ft girl that she will be getting wet soon!

Duck, it has indeed been a great hard water season but I'm ready for a change of scenery. Another week or so and we'll be slaying them coho's & browns while we ease into the perch season, see you at the secret spot !
