I want to go fishing -- how are you guys managing to fish in such cold wind/weather??
I can't do it when it is like this. I hurt way to bad in the cold to even think about playing in this weather. So I sit at my little work bench and either tie jigs or make jig heads. LOL

Bobo....did you get my PM
Not to sure I can handle it, but I'm thinking bout going to tenkiller tomorrow. Dress in layers and you may even want to take a change of socks if your feet are anything like mine. Be sure to have your head covered up as well. That's just what I do when I'm in the cold.
RE-send it Griz. I may have deleted it on accident.

No fishing for me in this weather! I just had a bowl of hot homemade stew and I'm sitting on my Navionics app dropping pins on channels, breaks and ledges that I want to check out in a few weeks. Cup of hot tea at my side (could of been chocolate or coffee.) I'll have enough waypoints to check it will take me all summer.
X2! Good advice Bobo! I always (during winter) have a plastic bag with a change of clothes and a towel!Quote:
