The sun's shining, the snow & ice is melting and for the Second day in a row
it's actually somewhat pleasant out there right now - low 40's.
I can almost feel the slightest hint of optimism for an early ice out.
Then, I looked at the calendar and reality set it.
Six Weeks - minimum.
Eh.
Headed out in about hour or so. Lund Pro-V Bass will finally be on the water for the first time in 2017.
Conditions are marginal at best so this may end up more of a shake down cruise than a bass fishing trip.
We'll see. At this point, I'm good either way
Headed out ~ going to be a good day. And one that's been a long time coming . . . . . .
I need a new fishing hat ~ can't decide which way to go.
Generic - Brand name - Or the Old Stand By - Red Sox cap !
