Iambjm Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 By the way, why the launch instead of the pontoon this year? No one want to stay sober enough to handle it? or the cost? We decided to do the launch this year so someone else can worry about the navigating and then we can all concentrate on fishing. We might even learn some good spots. Last year it was pretty windy and trying to keep the pontoon on course was pretty tough, plus some of us got pretty wet from the waves splashing over the front. It was mighty windy.

Debbie K Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Oh man - there's gonna be nightcrawlers too?? Okay, I'll get some pretend nightcrawlers too. I have a thing about round, slimy creatures. Don't even get me going on snakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debbie K Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Hope - hubby has been trying to teach me for years, hope you're better at it. I sound like such a sissy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopeforfish Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Not at all, I used to not like touching them but my niece cured me of that when she was younger, she was playing with them and even kissed one. After that I just started not fearing them. But I have taught most of my 9 nieces and nephews how to hook them and I have a lot of patience. And if all else fails I am willing to bait your hook.Hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishNovice101 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Wow - after I said I'd go along, I went back and started reading old posts. I'm afraid with my cute little fishing rod and tackle box, I might not fit in. But I do a good job of pouring drinks. Does that count?? Debbie - don't worry about not fitting in. We come from different backgrounds, have different amounts of fishing experience, but we all want to learn more about fishing, and have fun doing it.The good thing about a Launch is that they provide all the rods and reels, so that makes it way easy.

Iambjm Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Sure wish I had your camera gear Debbie, we have 2 trumpeter swans hanging on the lake and this was the best I could do with my wimpy canon. And as you can see the ice still isn't out yet. The open water is where a creek runs in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debbie K Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Oh Geez - Better not let the boss see this!!Barb - Sure wish I was there. Caught the trumpeters when they were in Monticello. Nothing too great, but I'm still learning. Now I'm on the hunt for Pileated Woodpeckers, found what I hope will continue to be an active nest.
