IceJohn: First of all CONGRADULATIONS! The second weekend of the fishing season is very unpredictible. Main thing, a good rainsuit, warm clothes, remember, if it gets warm you can take things off, but if it is cold, and you do not have what you need, it is very difficult to put it on! Last, but certainly not least, a happy heart. Good Luck.

I think you should be prepared for everything from mid-30's to upper 70's. Definately need raingear, hopefully your warm jackets are waterproof or your raingear will fit over them. Waterproof boots is another must. I'd also bring along some gloves and some chemical heat packs or hand warmers. Hopefully the weather and the fishing will be great. Have a great trip.
