I was planning to get one last trip in this year, but I got hit with a light snow yesterday and it doesn't look like it's gonna' get warmer till next spring :'(.  I only got out a few times this year, just couldn't fit it into the work schedule.  I might be able to catch a few smallies on the Columbia before it gets really cold, but the bass season is pretty much over for this Northerner.  

Ponds?

Any local ponds around that you can fish from the bank?

Be like Ike and "Never Give Up!"

Hardest time of the year.  It was 68 yesterday and 28 now.  Only 6 months to the opener!!!!

The southern boys and girls are sooooo lucky !

I HAD TO PULL MY BOAT OUT THREE WEEKS AGO. USUALLY THE BASS COME INTO MY CANAL THIS TIME OF YEAR BUT SO FAR NOTHING. I'M ALREADY GETTING WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS.
