Happy Easter to you as well. Hope everyone is having a good one.

Not once... my streak continues! However, I have hooked other people. I was 13 years old and I was at our cabin up in northern mn with my family. See my family is really into snorkeling and my uncle decided to go out for a quick afternoon snorkel session (which obviously I had no idea was happening). Ten minutes after he got into the water and was diving for rocks I strolled down to the lake and started casting a deep diving crank. All of a sudden I feel the biggest strike (or so I thought) of my life. I mean this fish was huge, had to be at least 200 lbs. I fought it for what seemed like forever. Much to my dismay I see a snorkel tube slowly coming out of the water. I see my uncle holding his ear and sure enough, my lure attached to that ear. I had absolutely no idea he was even in the water because he must have dove down about the time I got to the lake and started casting. Any ways, the barb went clean though his ear and now I am laughed at every time I pick up a fishing pole.

Looks like our place right now. I honestly don't remember the last time it was above 30 degrees. We still have about 2 feet of ice on the lakes.
