Cold Day on the Water

Talked to Titleman and sent him pictures from my phone of David and that big striper. So he now knows I was in the boat trying to do my part. It was cold but we had a great time.

They have some big crappie in that lake and some great places to fish. The boo works. We could see fish on the graph around the boo. Just blue bird skies and east winds.

Bobberwatcher I know all about taken that bath on the coldest day of the year. First year I have not duck hunted in years. Didn't even buy a stamp this year.

Well, Slipcork, if your homeboy Darryl is gonna vouch for you, I guess I'll have to believe you.

Glad you quit working long enough to catch a few fish and soak in a hot tub!!

I got a little wet on Saturday and about froze to death and the only reason I stayed was the ducks were pouring in so good, I can't imagine what it was like on Sunday!

You are one tough sucker to last anytime after getting wet on Sunday morning! Your lucky that you didn't knock yourself out on the ice when you fell! We were were froze solid Sunday morning in our woods and I wished I had stayed at home in bed....

It was cold colder than xxxx but we toughed it out. Doug was a real trooper he was getting messages from the wife of her sitting in that warm hot tub while we were fishing. She was really rubbing it in. The striper was fun to catch but I was hoping it was a 3 or 4 pound crappie instead.

Bobber glad to hear your OK after your dip in the cold water. You need to take better care of yourself don't you know this time of the Year is not the time to go swimming.

Yeah, it wasn't too bad. It only took me 20 yrds to fall completely in. You guys should have seen it. I looked like a camo submarine.

Darn boy, I want pictures. You can't claim it if you can't prove it.

(glad you're okay, and didn't get hurt)

I fell in once about this time of the year chasing a flyrod that took off over the stern. I sunk like a rock I had so many layers on. Fortunately I saw a flash of my ss prop and grabbed it. Otherwise I think I would have been unrobing on the bottom until I floated back up. When I crawled back up my motor, Adam was too busy with the crappie to assist. He had two poles going.:D
