    Default Fishing In Tennessee

    So much for fishing on the Duck or Elk river today, first snow we have seen all year. Now on March 1, 2009 we get nailed with 4 to 5 inches, now all the bread and milk is gone.

    Nothing worse than more snow when you have cabin fever. My condolences.
    All we are suffering from is the cold. That by itself is bad enough. Snow would just about send me over the edge!

    Keven unless the rivers froze over 4 or even 10 inches of snow does not call an end to fishing. Now drop your crying towel and get out there and pierce some trout lips.

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.

    Default You can't trust March

    March is a deceitful treachous month, promising beautiful weather one day and freezing rains, sleet and snow the next with a few tornados thrown in to keep things interesting. Way back before Al Gore discover the internet and global warming, some of my college friends and I went swimming in Sardis Lake on March 5, it snowed the next 3 Wednesday in a row. This was 30 miles south of Memphis, that's as far north as I have lived.

    The last big frozen event we had in the Atlanta & B'ham area was March '93. B'ham got 13" of snow and does not own a snow plow, but they haven't needed on since.

    I snowing like a son of a gun at the moment will probably be gone by this time tomorrow and they are predicting 70 degrees Friday; 67 Saturday and sunshine.

    The only thing certain about March weather is that it is unpredictable. I live about 2 hours drive north of Popperfly's location. We barely had enough snow to call it a dusting.
