no warm water
The settling pond was iced over and about 60% of the mail lake had a skim of ice on it.
I think by the end of the weekend it may all be covered.
I will be in sever withdrawl for the next few months.
There is some question as to wether my wife will let me live the whole time.
Rick,

Shoot Rick, I'll bring the Vexilar and a bucket full of rods. We'll just walk on water. (takes a lot of cutting to fly fish through the ice, but there's plenty of room for your backcast)

Rick,
If it gets too bad, come on down to KY. My upper pond is cold but just gave up a 9" BG on a Bully Spider. The lower pond is about gone. If I don't figure out how to get some water in it I think I will lose it this winter. The upper pond is fed by its' own well so no problem there.

I feel closer to HIM when I'm fishing.

Rick, I feel your pain! Every lake this side of Superior is frozen over right now and the rivers are, too. JGW

come on down here and show me what you been telling me. (might want to bring a t shirt and some warm stuff too, we never know but our water does not get hard very often or for very long)

As cold as it's been this year, I have two words for you. Ice fishing. Come on up to Scheels and see me and I'll get you fixed up. *S*

Yeah, Rick, I'm pretty much done here too, until spring. The temp just dropped and rains began, muddying the water. Ah, well. Time to build some rods and tie some flies, eh? http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/smile.gif

Actually the first thing I do is to take all the boxes out of my vest and clean them up. Take the flies that need to be fixed out and put in a bowl to do them. The flies that did not work anytime go ito a bowl to be clenaed and the hooks re-used. I then put all the patterns back inorder and fill in the blanks. This lets me know what I need to tie.
This takes a few weeks to get done.

PS everthing is iced over now.
