Re: Whos got the itch

You dont know the half of it.I cant wait till ice out and I can get out fishing. Bought another boat in december and only got out once in it.Got a new depth finder for christmas(bless the wifes heart)and have not even got it on the boat yet, too cold. Cant fit the boat in garage because to many toys in there.Of course this has to be the worse winter in a while around here. Yea you could say I got the itch!!!<br />------------<br />Flathead

I have it so bad, that if it does not hurry up and get warm enough to go fishing, I won't be able to afford to go because of boat shows and buying "stuff" to go when it warms up. :p

Re: Whos got the itch

i've got it pretty bad. not bad enough to hit the lake in temps in the 30's though. i'm going camping/trout fishing over by the GA/NC/SC borders in the middle of Feb... i hope we get a little warm spell or i'll be a frozen fish. i've gotta get the trebles off my lures and put on a single hook - for fishing the Delayed Harvest streams.<br /><br />i gotta beat my old record- 12.5in :rolleyes: i hope i catch one so big it'll make trollhole jealous. ;) <br />(even if it is a released brooder from the hatchery-LOL)

Re: Whos got the itch

I got it so bad, I am working on the shower. I removed the shower a few years back. I will not say how many but it is well known around these parts. If I get the shower back in, then my wife will let me go with pleasure this spring. This way she does not have to sit in the bathtub any longer. My son is itching too. HE keeps reminding me of the biggest bass he caught in the lake behind the house. It was his "best day ever" as he recalls. I would have to say it was one of my best days ever too. It almost better to see you kids pull in a big fish, than to pull one in yourself. I try not think think that my son, my wife, and another guy I went fishing with all caught bigger bass than me this year.

White Bass run on the White River in March. Just got my motor fixed, boat painted, reels greased and lined, and just bought 10 of everything that Bass Pro Shops has to offer in the way of White Bass and Crappie. I stand in my garage and stare at it for atleast 1 hour every day.

Ice out? I seem to remember that term when I lived back in Massachusetts. But here in beautiful Palm Springs that memory is fading fast. I love year round fishing. OK I'll stop rubbing it in now.<br /><br />Fish on!!!!

Re: Whos got the itch

I have the itch really bad too. I'm tired of this cold weather in Eastern Ohio. :D I WANT SPRING TIME! :D I cleaned all of my reels and poles but I haven't put the line on yet.Replaced hooks on lures.Bought some new lures for Bass and Muskie fishing.IF the weather got real nice I still couldn't go to the lake I want to fish. They lowered it 6 feet and maybe more :eek: No way to get on it.Come on spring time.<br /><br />"I have a 7 year itch too but that's another story" :p

Dman, The whitebass start in Fremont around Mothers Day, thru the end of the month.<br />The old saying is, "when the lilacs are in bloom".<br /><br />Since I moved here from Milw area, friends have been going to Necedah, below the dam on the Wisconsin River for whitebass. But I haven't been there yet. I may try it this year. Its about an hour closer.
