Torture!!!

[eyepatrol]

Here I am, either stuck in the office, at home doing yard work, or helping take care of the kids while yesterday it was 80+ degrees out and today is just gorgeous!!! This is just torture!

Hope others are able to get out and enjoy these days. Catch one for me please! (just venting some "withdrawls" here!)

P.S. - everyone have a good, safe weekend!

Talk about torture, i just moved to a new home and my driveway is about the consistency of jello pudding still...I put the boat in the garage when it was still frozen, but now I can't get it out of my garage!!!!! The whole reason I moved to Forest Lake was to be closer to some of my favorite lakes and now I can't even use them.

I went home over lunch today just to let the dog out, I saw several people loading up the boats and getting ready for a day on the water, and man what a day to get out!

I am stuck here working errrrrr....(surfing this site) until its late enough in the afternoon for me to sneak out and not feel guilty lol.

[Northlander]

I hear you guys Im home sick!

Did manage to get out a few times before this junk hit me though. Come on opener.

[The Grebe]

Fellas, fellas, not to worry....I got out enough for all of us, so far! As a matter of fact, after having the boat on the water 4 times in 4 days, with 4 different buds, I'm fished out! One of my other buds wanted to go, to help ease you fellas pain of course, but I just didn't have it in me to do my part!

Grebe.. You certainly know how to ease everyones pain .I just managed to yank my boat out of the yard.Now all I need is my prop back from the shop,and two fridays from now ill be floatin on the Croix at midnight.....Yankin Eyes

Grebe, Grebe, Grebe....only way I'll be happy is to be out there 365, 7, 12 (not 24)! Just kiddin'!

I really do need to get out though. Last time I was out was about the 3rd of March or so, still ice fishing. Maybe next weekend though. Talked with the "boss" and so far things are a go. Loading up on fishing gear tomorrow, so that will help to some degree!

Torture? How about sitting here in the above normal temps watching a fantastic walleye chop while my buddy, in a state that doesn't close fishing seasons, is having a blast during the best time of the year...............

[eyepatrol]

I know exactly what you mean. I've got an old college buddy in South Dakota who e-mails me pics of the walleyes he caught while I sit here and watch the counter.

5 years ago that didn't matter as I was going out there and fishing with him this time of year. Wife and kids now...completely different story! It's a good trade-off though!

basscatcher, did you get your boat yet?

[kslipsinker]

It is a dirty job, but someone has to do it. I fished 4 of the last 6 days. Crappie bite was great one day and fair one other day. The other two days were spent doing yard work, so I am not fishing all of the time.

[Mike89]

I slipped out of work 3 hours early friday. didn't catch much but the grandson and I had a blast!!!

[eyepatrol]

HaywardBound -

Not yet....not until next year in Feb/March. Pretty well have the set-up nailed down, but boat brand is still up in the air. It's been fun so far though.

[HaywardBound]

Aww, I thought you pulled the trigger.

I was in your situation a while back...the waiting part was hard...well torture for me. I'm going into my second year with my (used) SportFish.

I'm looking forward to you getting your boat.

If you get an afternoon off this summer, give me a holler & I'll let you teach me some bassin.
