Perch jerkin

Got out of church, pulled in the drive way and the boat looked so lonely

. Temps in the high 60s gave Tyler and I the fever. We put the boat out behind the house and caught a few. Can't wait till spring

We really enjoy creek fishing, especially warm mornings with a fly rod or a top water bait.

Our ponds are under 6" of snow.. I wish I knew how thick the ice was under that.
It's hard water season here in Ontario, this crazy up and down weather is keeping us from fishing.
Have fun!

Michael had the same thought today with temps over 50ºF (10ºC), but the ponds are still ice covered.

Supposed to hit 60ºF tomorrow with some rain, so the ice should disappear soon. Only a couple months until they will be releasing trout into the local lake again. We like to catch a few of them every spring!

Yah Ray I got the hots to go ice fishing but my report last week from Lake Erie is that the ice is out and they had to pull the shanties off the ice. Chit I wish this weather would make up it's mind. It supposed to be 75F and rain Tuesday. Oh well I still have plenty of perch and a few walleyes in the freezer.

Hey how about we go down to Hatteras sometime in the late summer early fall and fish the Sound side? Nail some trout, flounder and maybe, just maybe hook a few wahoo. I gotta get a line on one of them suckers one of these days.

We'll have to keep an eye on the weather. It's beautiful right now but last year it didn't warm up until late April...early May. Seems like the kids played baseball in turtle necks most of the baseball season

. But your right, the fishing gets great here in Sept...Oct...

We didn't catch a single bream. We were actually crappie fishing but couldn't find them. We just wanted to get the boat out for the first time of the year and do a little river scouting, now it's time to stock up on baits and a little maintenance on the boat.

there are alot of hoo's down here inside. cold weather tends to bring them in out of the weather.
