    My Husband and I took the kiddos fishing today. I should say we took the newly tied jigs swimming since we didn't catch anything. Had fun and got outside though, that's what matters :)

    A bad day of fishing? Still an enjoyable day outdoors. ;)

    We have another 2 weeks before we can go out. :(

    We just fish the trout while we wait for the lakes to thaw, I can't wait to get out on the boat! Not possible for a while yet, everything is still iced up.

    Our trout season starts the 3rd Saturday in April. So we can only fish the non trout lakes/ponds but still frozen. Most of the good bass lakes have trout stocked in them. Some are open, Should be iced off in another week. We'll get the boat setup and hopefully dip it next week to be sure she's set for the season.

    Hope you guys post some pic's of some of the lunkers ya'll gonna catch! We'll try to do the same.

    Beautiful spot you have there.
    I'll snap some pics of the place I go to down in the National Forest - it's probably flooded 6ft deep right now though.
    Unfortunately I can't get into Chinnabee easily anymore - the federal gov't closed it down after it flooded last spring.

    That is gorgeous! If I had that near by I wouldn't get anything done, but I would be one happy lady! :thumbs:
