[Pman]

Timmy you're so right! Maybe we can get together and fish on the ice at least once this year, you think?

[CNY Tim]

Dave - Looking to take Tuesday off this week... I'll let you know...

[CNY Tim]

I'm in! Call you tonight Dave...

[Pman]

Here I go again. As luck would have it, Tues is the only day I can't make it. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I just got in and saw your post. Weds wearher sounds kinda iffy, Thurs and Fri look ok. I know your psyched about getting out tommorrow so if you don't/can't change plans no big deal, we will hook up. If you do go out tomorrow put a hurtin on them. Talk with you later.

[CNY Tim]

Dave - Billy and Tank are comin up so I'll have company. I'm gonna call King Salmon/Mohawk Valley Joe later to see what he's doing.

[Pman]

Have a great time - can't be in much better company unless Pujols ice fishes. Good luck.

At about 9 o'clock I walked accross the street to get a soda and I ran into a little leprechan, He told me word on the streets from Lake C was that some crazy Browns fan got his van stuck in a snow bank and 2 old retired guys had to push him out.

He also told me one of the retired gentlemen had a dozen perch already...

You got me again! Or should I say I did it again... First I want to thank King Salmon for the excellent access, Joe that was great!

Now to my adventure. All fishing trips start with a good breakfast so I stopped at the Richfield Springs Diner and they are under new management, they closed yesterday and to my pleasant surprise I walk-in and there's the lovely Cassidy ;)and she took my order Western omlet with Taders and toast. Had a nice talk with Cassidy,sweet girl..

Left the diner and went down to Joe's Parking area and promptly drove pass where we should of parked and buried the van's front end while attempting aturn. Thankfully Tank and Billy were right there with me and gave "Murphy's Law" a shove out. I knew carrying that blue shovel in my car would come in handy...

After that we fished with Craig, Z, Wheeler and Joe and caught a few fish today. Didn't hammer em like Tank and Craig did but 20 is not a bad day on that lake. Experimented with a custom Dark Cloud mock up of what we call it, "The Six-eyed Sloth" more on that later... Fish came e early on knackers as usual and Jay's custom gold lead the way for me today...

Now on to the "The six-eyed Sloth... Which I took a majority of fish on the size 8 and one slob on the 10

And now the biggun on the size 10 sloth

Great fishing with you guys especially before we get more snow tonight

[Thunderman]

Nice fish there snow bank Timmy .

[CNY Tim]

Nice fish there snow bank Timmy .

Thanks Pal

[Thunderman]

We need to get you some MUDHOG STUDDED SNOWS for that van you will be able to get out of anything Bro .

[Pman]

A word of advice from an old guy - don't be thinking about the "lovely Cassidy" when driving and you might stay out of snow banks. Sounds like a [PoorWordUsage] of a day - sorry I missed out, looks like some nice fish. Timmy has always told me that his fishing outings are an absolute adventure. "You can bank on it" he's said. Now I know what he means.

[tank]

Joe THANK YOU for letting Bill and I(TANK) park with Timmy in your parking spot.I really appreciated the shorter walk.

[CNY Tim]

Dave - Do you think if my Dad didn't marry a "Murphy" it would be this bad?

Todd - Dave's right... Maybe your taking your life in your own hands when you ride with me... At least i have some pushing power if I need it Thanks again Tank and Billy...

[Otis1]

Tim, did you ever think of getting a truck?

[CNY Tim]

I love vans but hate long wheelbases. No way my old 95 caravan would have gotten stuck in that situation at Darago. It had a shorter wheelbase and a few more inches of ground clearance...

Aaron - I think the best vehicle for me would be an extended cab Chevy with a cap and while I'm at it I'll throw a sled and trailer on it as well...

[Salmonspanker]

How much snow did they get down there Timmy?

Robb

[Thunderman]

Robb, I just talked to Timmy report from mohawk valley Joe 8 to 10 inches of snow and Joe will be there tommorow morning at 8am.

[CNY Tim]

Update on snow - West shore picked up about 5" of snow and some sleds have been running but the east shore drifted 8 - 10"...

[Otis1]

I hear ya Tim. My truck died this fall, and we're living with one vehicle until this summer. It's the wife's mini van. She doesn't get too excited when I start loading up the shanty and "stuff".

[CNY Tim]

Aaron that wouldn't wash at my house, if the silly breaks down I'm SOL. No fish buckets in her new van...

Talked to Z guess it depends on where you walk on Darago but there is at least 8" of snow on the ice off the launch, off the lightly beaten path. He's marking fish but there being finicky. King Salmon is out there too and seeing the same thing and yes there about 50 guys on the ice there this a.m.

Joe pulled two traps out on to the ice this morning with his quad and it went through the snow surprisingly well.

[Salmonspanker]

Thanks for the update guys.

Robb

[CNY Tim]

Chris I am sure King Salmon will be out there this Saturday he's was on a roll this past Saturday look for his quad in that area I emailed Tiffany, good luck...

[CNY Fred]
