Spring is in the air
 

A couple of guys on TF confirm that the osprey's have returned to the mid and upper Chesapeake. That's good news. I too can confirm that spring is in the air. First; I visited a couple ponds yesterday and saw the turtles sunning themselves on some logs, and additionally, I saw two women jogging in short-shorts, tennis shoes and halter tops:D.

I replaced all my shads on my C/R trolling gear (No stingers, barbs ground down). Everything looks fresh and I can't wait to get it in the water.

The spring peepers are singing loudly at night near my house.

They got a surprise coming though - near freezing next couple nights.

Then back near 65 on Friday. :D

At first, I thought "spring peepers" was a reference to Marty's female joggers mentioned above. :o

Ouch - just saw updated forecast for BWI area Monday night - low near 20* :eek:

Poor little peepers are in deep sh*t - hope they survive.

Weeds are growing my garden, Ospreys in the nest, and the water is fishy.. Spring is here!

Marty, how did your pick up line work?
:D:D

Now that I'm getting older (60 next Month); I no longer have a "pick up" line. I just wave money at them out the truck window:D.

Hell that's all I've ever done. :o

Got your message yesterday.....you thinking of heading out this week?

I'm good tomorrow or Friday....Thursday has been promised to SWMBO.

I took my daughter and her friend to school this morning at 6:30 an it was 28 degrees. Supposed to be mid 60's tomorrow and pushing 70 on Thursday.

Weeds are going to be REALLY REALLY bad this year. Get your product down sooner than later, before they go to seed. I actually got lucky for a change and got it down Friday before the three days of rain...:D So happy....

Brian; not sure I follow you. Are you saying you're growing "weed" this year:eek:. I know the economy is bad, but................:D.

Ya know, if I smoked it, I would grow it. :D:D:D

Its been 30 plus years since I rolled a joint. But when I was a teen, I could roll with one hand doing 75 on 270, extremely well....:eek:

Don't forget to "Spring Forward" this weekend.

Sunday morning the clocks jump ahead an hour giving us more daylight to fish!!!!

I have been hearing the spring peepers for about a week now. Friend from PA and I were just talking about this one the phone last night. Both saying how they are a couple weeks earlier than normal. This is by far my favorite time of year!

I was over at Tuckahoe yesterday and they were going BONKERS.


Yeah, spring fever hits me hard. The first day it breaks 75 I'm like a walking hard-on.

Spring is here
 

I went out on the Severn river and the turtles and water snakes are out and they don't come out till mid April...........woody

Hummingbirds have pushed their way into the Carolinas and Arkansas in numbers. They are way early this year, and should be in Maryland in numbers by the end of the month

dang, that's cool. I also noticed that the lillies we planted 7 years ago have started coming up 5 to 6 weeks early this year.

I LOVE global warming.:cool:

You can tell spring is here by all the water turtles and water snakes that are out.They don't come out till mid April............woody
