The weather has been totally upside down this winter with lack of snow and above normal temperatures. How do you think this will affect the season ahead of us? For the worse or for better?
I think it will be the same as last year. Higher water temps and no fish from shore. Last year sucked for me.

I expect same as last year which was worst than a year before which was worst then the year before that...I'd like this cycle to at least stop turning in downward direction

If I see the season starting out as I saw last season I will be doing more freshwater fishing for sure!

:fishin:It will have very little effect / over the years / no matter what the winter weather >its always give or take a couple of weeks .
IMO the SPRING has a much greater effect on the long run :fishin:

WACHUSETT RES HAS ICE OUT...
even though it's only 24 degrees today
i think that is significant
