It' so bad that I think I just re-purchased a reel on this post that I sold last year.

Mines starting to get bad and then i remembered...i have guns...and lots of wild rabbits and squirrels...squirrel or rabbit stew is amazing

Or squabbit, hahaha.

It's not quite as bad as it once was.  I got the kids to keep me busy.  I'm looking to buy things for my truck.  I also picked up ice fishing too.  I'm keeping myself busy.

Ice fishing definitely helps. So does feeding the Bait Monkey. I've been busy checking out colleges with my son who thinks he's going to be a major league catcher.

Would be nice then he could support me.

I went out a bit earlier. 33 degrees with light snow and sleet. Dreadful. Guess I'll just wait til spring.

Not too bad, but like others, the bait monkey has had some fun and I got my new canoe in last week and will start rigging that.

My lakes have iced over and thawed out twice since New Years - in-between, I've gone out fishing even though I know the success rate would be near zero. In fact, I haven't caught a fish since mid-November but I've been out fishing at least a couple times a week since then. I guess my cure for cabin fever is to go fishing ! (I do hate it when you have to clear the ice from your guides every other cast though ;D).

i routinely flip jigs under my coffee table from my couch lol

I have been practicing flipping in my backyard with about 4 inches of snow of on ground...  My neighbors probably think i am nuts lol.

I took my new baitcaster out to the river a little while ago. The river is still frozen over, so I would just cast onto the ice and retrieve. It was just nice to cast for 10 minutes until I couldnt feel my fingers, resulting in birds nests.

I was gonna say you need to get out more....but perhaps not.... :

Up here in Ontario I have to wait till June 26th (fourth Saturday in June) before we can fish for bass....so we need more drugs n stuff ;D

I feel for you guys. Me personally, I'm out here in California, yeah I know, "The Land Of Fruits And Nuts" We did have a few waves of winter weather but that still didnt stop me from wetting a line so no cabin fever here.

I read a similar post, but I can't even watch fishing shows anymore.

Cabin fever?  Now why would I have cabin fever?  I have been trying to replace the carpeting in my boat for three months.  I've got two pieces left to install, but the temperature needs to be above 50 for the carpet glue to adhere.  Only after I install these two pieces can I re-install the ****-pit floor board, the driver's console and the adjoining side panel.  Only after re-installing all of the above can I then install my new Hot Foot throttle.  And then ... I get to re-install all of the electrics and electronics.  And then ... I get to put the boat in the water and adjust the Hot Foot.  And then ... I get to install my new Minn Kota Terrova with the iPilot.

All I need is a couple of days in the sixties, but nooo ...

last year I planned on ditching everyone and driving down south to fish by myself for a week.

It was all planned, but then my girlfriend stepped in haha.

I feel your pain 8-)

Have been contemplating a trip to Mexico for bass but costs are pretty heavy duty - and that's before you even start looking at flights etc.  .....So must think of other things.  Problem is no matter the what those 'other' things may be,  I always end up back at bass.  :.  Long time till late June :'(

We had a fairly early winter in OH, I'm hoping we get an early spring. I plan on fishing pretty much every day from ice out until the end of the spawn.

Flipping practice plugs indoors playing keep away with the puppy who chases it wildly down the hall...

I beat the winter cabin fever blues by fly fishing.  From November until mid-April, I am on the streams with a fly rod either fishing for Steelhead (if the tributaries are flowing) or trout.  Once I put my boat away in the fall, I polish off my waders and vest and am ready for six months of a new fishing season.  Come April, I will put away my fly gear and shine up the boat.  I love living in PA.  The variety really keeps fishing from getting too stale.

went out today, got about 10-12 bass, maybe 7 pickerel, and a bluegill.  cabin fever is pretty lame 

I"m watching reruns of Charlie Moore. Someone shoot me !!! :-/

Well  too have watched an amazing amt of on demand fishing shows...video game fishing...and throwing practice plugs in the backyard while the dog chases it through the snow.....reminds me of topwater...lol..I'm gonna fish this weekend tho!!! I've surveyed my little pond by the house and no ice.....today at least.....almost forgot one of my faves...fill the bathtub and see what this rig and that rig does...I actually found a great shaky worm like this

I have become so starved for excitement that I charged out my front door and sucker punched my next door neighbor. She didn't know what hit her.....

I won't say I have cabin fever as I'm still fishing 7 days a week, however I'm not doing what I like to do best.

In the winter here 20mph winds coming off the ocean at 50 degrees is uncomfortable for me plus there is a lack of bait which means few fish.  Just like everyone else I'm waiting for the warmer weather and bait to show up.
