We got out about 1pm. We went to Seton and Maxwell. Found temps at about 43.5-47.0. Got about a dozen in 5-6ft. Largest was about 1/2 a pound. The bite shut down about 3pm and we left about 4pm. The little bit of ice(slush) left on Crystal and North Arm went out by the time we went back to the ramp at Maxwell.
The boat fired on the first hit of the key, all systems worked great, and all in all, it was a great afternoon. Nice to finally be back on the water...

We will be back out there tomorrow, in a green/tan Crestliner. A him and her(JoJo), so if you see us, say hello...

I was out on the m'sippi on Tuesday giving the new owner of my old boat a run through on how it works. Pick up a new rig in the am and I'll be back on that river on the 'morrow giving the new one a little test run. Can't wait, what a great day it was today. See ya on the water.

I got out on an east metro lake. Water temps in the 40's...The boat fired up right away and I fished for about an hour with limited success. I am planning on WBL, Bald Eagle or Minnewasts on Saturday...

I washed mine, does that count?

I got out on Orchard Lake this afternoon. The water temps ranged from 47 to 51. Marked a ton of fish between 17 and 22 feet but did not get a single crappie. Caught and released a decent bass though.

I saw a caution (police type) tape floating on the water and went to pull it out and ended up pulling in the tape and 2 orange cones! A guy on a dock told me that there was a fish house floating half submerged yesterday. I didn't see it!

There was even a guy water skiing!!

I got my boots, socks, boat, bumper and almost my back seat wet so far. Oh well, I needed to clean those dead minnows out of the back of my Blazer from ice-fishing anyway.

Ah..be sure to test that parking break early this spring guys! Rust from the salt can raise heck with the E-brake cable over winter...Yup--Yup.

I have been dodging ice bergs for a month, or so.

Well, we got the canopy up in the yard today for the boat. Which went pretty well since we lost the directions and of course "the woman" knows nothing even though she put it up the first time! Picking up boat tomorrow. We are getting closer!
