I've fished in hail, rain, snow...

Those late season blues in Buzzards Bay were always fun to catch in November, big suckers.

My old bones can't take it any more. I'll take warm summer breezes over rain and cold. I just sit there now, look out the window and think to myself "I should be fishing", then, turn the heat up a little and go back to bed.

I guess it would be different if I was a commercial fisherman who goes when they can get out, no matter what the weather. Hmmm
Amen brother!

BOAT fish do count.

Love the snot, I figure as long as I can, I'll fish inthe crap. There's plenty of time for fare weather fishing when I get old.... well older.

I like the snot....but I don't like it in my coffee!

I find some of the most productive fishing takes place in snotty, rainy weather......so I love it!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I have the gear to keep myself warm and dry so I don't mind the crappy weather.

I do have bad knees and a bionic right arm so there are some days when the weather limits me to how long and where I can fish.I tend to fish easy spots when the weather and water isn't to cooperative.

the lousy weather brings the fish in and me out after them. Plus you won't find as many of the nitwits out in the snot.

No boat, back in the suds.

I think that the biggest plus of fishing in nasty weather is all the googs and sissies are warm and dry at home....less aggravation for those who fish the slop to deal with!

Please...no replies about the sissy crack....its not intended to degrade you fair weather fans in any way!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
