I always thought "Singing in the Rain" was lame until I saw the "Clockwork Orange" version... :biggrin1: Anyway, I went fishing in the snow with CadenceKing yesterday. The wind and wet snow made for a miserable start but it all changed when we hit some big walleyes. We were singing in the snow after that!

I hadn't fished with anyone in CadenceKing's age group for a while. I came home very impressed with his ability to grasp fishing concepts. I think you have a fine student there, Doc!

Guides were freezing. Reel was ceasing every now and then. I thought I was done with that chit for this season...

The moment of truth will be when he gets married and starts a career and gains a few pounds will he still have the desire to be the greatest?

The coldest part of the night was when I slipped of a rock and dunked my left leg haha. I guess it could have been worse, I am lucky I didn't break or sprain anything. Thanks again for taking me Linh.

My fish actually showed between 8.1 and 8.2 pounds on my digital scale, skinny for 29 inches.

You are right! I think I was thinking about length/weight relationships in my head. That should have been a 9 lb fish. Could even have been a 10-11 pounder, depending on girth.

Let's do it! The window is closing here for pre-spawn eyes but there'll plenty of opportunities here soon.

Nice guys!

I was thinking of heading out last night but decided not to. Now I'm rueing that decision. I should have gone with my instinct that said - "bad weather = big fish (or getting cold with no results)"

Any of the big fish eat swimbaits? :smile:
