Was a sad day. Spent the last two days on the water with Mr. Sluggo. Yesterday went pretty well with 5 follows and 1 lost at boatside. Today pretty much sucked. 2 hits with nothing to show for it. Ended up cold, wet, hungry and depressed.

On the bright side...only 5 more months until opening day.
Looking forward to the Milwaukee Show Swap Meet. Keep us informed.

ANY day spent fishing is better than even the BEST day doing any work, so why be anything but delighted you can make it out on the water...even if it is the last day of the season, there will be MANY more...It will be opener in 6 months in Northern Wisconsin!!

Today was my last day of fishing too. In wisconsin that is. Send all your unused suckers down here. It's tuff to find them unless you are by the chain.

scott, thanks for a great time this weekend. too bad we could not have gone sooner . if any of you get a chance to fish with theedz 155 grab a box of donuts [:devil:] and go. you will have a great time . he's the only guy i know that after 9hrs in the wind and rain will call it a day, pack up and and get ready to go home but then put up with the guy driving the boat coming around the corner and saying "the wind died down, we can go fish 1 more weed bed" and he will dig out all his gear,re-rig his rod and fish till dark. looking forward to next year.

Yesterday was pretty much my last day fishing, and I didn't catch anything. But I had a great first year, and I am marking the days on my calendar, actually I have no idea when the ice goes away, Mid march?

Zach, ice out can be anytime in february or april 1st like it was this year(actualy broke through ice april 1st). I have fished open water with no ice in february. A few years ago we never had safe ice.

Mike-

My calendar is open any time for you. I had a great time too. Too bad I couldn't have gotten you that 1st one.

Of course I lost that one at the boat too. Let's seeeee that was Friday so add 2 inches per day should be 44" by now don't ya think????

I'll get my boat in this week and maybe we can get together for some walldogs before iceup.
