I talked some friends into doing a little pond fishing while the weather was still warm enough to get some lures in the water
I think Mike (garlein) got pissed because I had the hot hand today
The fish were small, but at least we were fishing
I did get this nice crappie on a live shiner

Cold weather set in here in Md.; but Alex (Overcooked) was basking in the Florida Keys with his new 27 Judge.
I on the other hand was busy checking EBay for some new reels and busy clearing snow

No one was launching for quite a while. Sandy Point and Shipping Creek were iced in.

There was nothing to do except rig tackle and wait for the thaw. New shads went on the umbrellas and I hang all my chutes on an old wooden clothes rack.

Thank goodness, the spring thaw finally got here and it was time to splash the boat and do a shake down cruise with six lines.
It's always good to see the motor peeing strong after sitting all winter

The water was cold, but there were a few (damn few) big fish coming up to spawn early.
Doug (Capt. John's mate) Captain John, and I found a few. The bait wasn't hear during preseason (Fishfinder #1) but by opening day, it was getting better (Fishfinder #2)

The first week of the trophy season was slower than normal because of the cold water and late arrival of the big fish, but some were found (if you looked hard enough)
My opening day was marked by getting run over by a Grady White, But Bill jumped on getting me a new motor cowling and did the fiberglass work pronto. I think I was out of the water for about four days
It's good to know the owner/manufacturer of your boat Thanks Bill Judge!!
Lou, Mike, and I had some good days
