Last minute Larry dropped off a few reels today for service, though I have others to start the season with should they take awhile to get back! Rod rack is in truck, gotta tie some leaders, clean the dust off the rods and I am ready to hit it....couple more weeks!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I am basically ready to go. Last thing left to do is spool em' up!

One reel shy for Striped Bass fishing, got everything else already. Now just trout fishing for the next two weeks then it's showtime and the ball starts it's long roll down that familiar hill and before we know it, boom it's December.

The trout fishing has been quite good this year overall.

Why even try.........

yeah, I gotta get one of my reels serviced! I also need to rig up some sluggos, got a bunch of them for a great deal at RISAA. I'm waiting on the tying leaders, I like to have fresh knots! (superstition?).
I made a "Keep Cool eel bucket" last weekend and can't wait to populate it!

I summerized the ice auger and hung it in the rafters, while I was up there I took down the rocket launcher that rides in the bed of my truck.....

The rods are ready, I've got more than enough plugs,fllies and jigs...

I just need to paint the bottom of the boat, put in the batteries and change the water pump.. once that is done I'll trap a few eels, fill the freezer with cod and haddock and by then the REAL fish should be here...

Everything is done except to put the electronics back in the boat and rig a few spreader bars. should be able to do that in a few hours tops. Codfishing until the big girls show in May.
