[cool] Cool , I'm headed that way this weekend !

I hope they have the roads salted or saned by then .
I skated to work today on black ice . I stoped a few times to offer rides into town to people nose end up in the ditches .
By noon the jeep had 1/4" of ice on it , the ride home (12 miles ) took a little over an hour and a half .

Last night I respooled all my spools , 4# , 6# ,8# for the steelies and 1 spool of 10# for the musky this spring .

I loaded up the pocket tackle box with # 6 , #18 and # 20 hooks and some size 6 barrel swivels . I have all my flys tied for the spring and have enough supplys to tie a few green worms and wollybuggers while I'm on the river ( I don't need a vice to tie those patterns) .
The boat is ready , 17' flatbottom , 9.9 merc shortshaft , fishfinders ( not that I will need them but they do have a debth alarm ) , drift and regular anchors . Everything ready to pass a Coast Guard inspection .
Not if but when I find BFT2 , he'll have a fish to get in a photo op with .

I was tinkering in my shed the other day, I found I have enough Plastic materials to make a few more BigFish to send off fishing other states.

Woo Hoo Team BigFishTackle.com "Geo Caching Team"

did you sign up as a member? It is free, You can register to watch BigFish 2 and you will get an email every time it moves closer to its destination.

Its to bad I didnt launch it a month earlier, there was a geo member that went form here to a spot right on the river.

from where you park you just go up to the next main north till you cross the river on the left is a parking spot, there is a cache on both sides of the road.

LoL, when you get a gps unit it will make hooking up on the river a whole lot easier.
