A little frustrated today. Seems to be more idiots out there this week. Need to get the holiday shopping thing behind me and find some time to get away for a few hours (preferably alone and at a good fishing spot).
Not since the 80's when I still lived in Wisconsin. But that was with an ice shanty, some booze and a few other guys playing cards. I don't recall catching many fish. There is still a lot of open water on the rivers and creeks to flyfish especially below the dams. I get less cold if I keep moving.
I see some of the locals in Evergreen have already risked their lives up here on lake. Still too thin I think and open water in some spots. If they are gonna spend 4 hours freezing their tail on a lake for a mushy stocker, so be it. If I am that hard up for a fish dinner, I'll go to the market.
I am waiting for this seasons first call to remove an elk, deer or dog from a hole in the ice. Happens at least once per year and DOW and the Rec District won't do it.
interesting you should ask. thank you. frustrated that we the people are so over the top debt wise and yet it continues. maybe i should give up reading the news for a few days.

I had a great day today. I was at a store near me with my daughter. Two people thought that we were sisters. Who hoo. That is like getting carded at the liquor store.
