When Will the Snow Melt?







Carolynne, Sully, and I took a drive around today to see what the status of the creek and the lake are. The bad news is that the creek is still frozen and the lake has a ton of ice on it. The good news is that there should be good water for the creeks, and in turn good-colored water trolling. Hopefully I will be fishing the creeks in a couple of weeks and then on the lake shortly after. I can only hope that there is good water and more typical brown fishing in close to shore this spring. Trolling the mudlines for trout as soon as the ice is gone is one of my favorite things to do. Until the weather breaks, I am trying to get the boats ready for the spring and organizing tackle for the upcoming year. Before we know it, we will be hitting the creeks, trolling for browns, loading up on perch in the ponds, filling the freezer with crappie, heading west for the LOC, hitting the bass and pike in Silver...
