Location: Athens, Ohio | Out yesterday in the morning light rain and drizzle. Abt one o'clock I was ready to head down the lake when it started raining a bit so I pulled into a cove. There were some white basses jumping around and the screen was full of bait. After casting abt ten minutes the rain eased up. Then, I heard a sound behind me that sounded like someone dropped a window air conditioner in the lake. Abt a cast an a half behind me there was a hole in the water 6 ft round and growing. I carpet bombed the area with white baits for quite a bit but never saw the beast. m |

That's liable to open up another can of worms.. Is the use of propane and propane accessories ethical? |

| I will be out this afternoon, primarily trolling I think. Did something to my shoulder and don't need to aggravate it. |

Location: Brighton CO. | When I first moved to Colorado in 1991 November was our snowiest month (we always had airport hell it Thanksgiving) the last period of time November has been mild. Last November I even went fishing in the foothills. After a record warm Sept. and Oct. November is looking like old November lots of snow. So I'm done for the year. Last night I watched a Hockey game in Winnipeg weather in Winnipeg 51 weather in Denver 27 snow flurries. |

| Just got back from 4 days in Vilas. water temps pretty much 48 degrees on the two lakes we fished. partner missed one on the 8 while working a Hellhound. next day we fought the wind but hooked two mid -30's slow trolling sucks around humps. fish were super sluggish. Cisco's are scattered during the day but are schooling and are moving up the water column at dusk. We should have fished at night but the wind and weather was too much The few musky fisherman we talked to indicated they moved some fish but thars it.

Location: Athens, Ohio | I went out again yesterday. Water temp had only dropped 4* since my last trip there; they are dropping the reservoir abt an inch a day. As I was driving to the boat ramp, I saw a boat heading upstream from the ramp, thought it was pretty shallow up that way. As I was prepping my boat for launch, I saw them paddling back to the dock. "Our transmission went out!"
Most likely, I told them, they spun a hub as they started discussing "shear pins". They looked at some of the baits I was putting out and one fellow stated that my baits were worth more than my boat. Well, my boat's going in the water, theirs is going home...
They assured me the big fish were biting today, that there were fifties out there. I gave them my usual line that I'd be happy with two twenty-fives.
I got one of those at the end of the day. I was still happy. m |

| The best fishing is just beginning in Minnesota. Two full weeks of muskie (minus Thanksgiving day). Then find open water for walleye. |
