Hit the gym 3-4X per week.  Getting the body ready for long walks over rocks,sand, etc. Remember, its a marathon.... |
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Chasing around a 2 year old and changing diapers on the 2 1/2 month old. Super busy at work. Figure I'll pick up some terminal tackle this weekend.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to change a few hooks on my spring plugs and tie a bunch of leaders for tossing eels.

The daylight savings benchmark you use is a trick! It is early this year...I think it normally happens about a month later. Fishing will not get rocking here for 3 more months.
That said I always need more stuff. Who here DOESN'T?

I heard on this morning's weather that temps may hit 60 by this weekend... 
I fully expect to see the first flock of long-legged bed-thrashers along the Tems flyway this weekend - 
The red-breasted warblers usually show up shortly thereafter...

Me too. Last year of college and lacrosse and all I can think about is fishing! Gotta finish up a few paint jobs, spool a few reels, and really get organized. I have shiznat all over the place. Will get my act together after spring break. Oh ya and I need to find one of those things you guys called "a job" that takes up a lot of your time. |
