Opening Day
I have always, even in my spin casting days, avoided opening day. The lakes around here are an absolute panic, with so many boats 'you could walk across the lake on them'. Not really but you know what I mean. The boat launches are jammed and there is no place to park your rig. Out on the water there are the people still fishing trying to keep their lines as people who are trolling swing by their boat. It just is not worth it to me.
Our streams and most of our rivers and highland lakes do not open until much later and they don't get hit as hard as the lowland lakes on opening day.
