I can't fish anymore because all the water is frozen! :'( I don't think ill live through this winter without fishing!!!!!! :'( Sorry, I had to vent, lol

Sure you will, get yourself a fine lookin philly and curl up with her in a warm spot..I  think you will survive. 

You could always move  .  Caught eight Sunday on a hike in only lake here in California.

SOLUTION #1

Drill a hole in the ice.

SOLUTION #2

Take a vacation in the deep south.

i'm in mississippi, thats pretty deep south.the lakes arent frozen and they're still not having it. i fished maticulously all weekend with not a bite. i'm going nuts. i cant wait till march but i have to. its like suffocating. bought a bunch of jigs for the winter. what a waste.

Maybe next time you need to fish "meticulously."

oops sorry, I forgot, no one mispells anything on this site, apologies all around

I feel ya too.  I was laying under my buddies truck the other night helping him change a flat.  The windchill was 33 below.  All I could think about was you lucky jerks down in Texas and how nice it must be to not have 2 feet of ice on all your water  >

Look on the bright side.....today was the first day of winter and the shortest day of the year. From now on, the days just keep getting longer!

It'll be March before you know it.

That's what keeps me going.  I'm thinking about going out into the garage and putting away some tackle that's just laying on my table out there.  It'll be chilly but it'll be worth it.

The weather hasn't been too bad here in beautiful Cumberland Co. Tennessee and I've been getting out almost every day. Only had my rod guides ice up once when I was fishing at 29 deg. Water temp has been running about 42 degrees though and catching in my little lakes here is poor. I haven't caught a fish in December yet :-/ Haven't seen a bass since November but did have two nice rainbows follow my spinner back to the bank a few days ago. Now, if they just would have hit ......
