Hey, I've had my cat poles baited for a couple of weeks now. Ready to get the boat out and do a prep on it; got all the licenses, quagga cert., pfds all checked and re-primed as needed, stuff like that.
Not much fishable ice all winter at Lincoln this year. The channel froze up good but there never was much ice elsewhere. I saw a few guys fishing thin ice at the first spring a couple of times and a few at Mulberry but that's about it. Guess we could still get a cold spell with some ice but not likely. I usually figger first of Feb. is thawing time. Whatever, I'm ready.
Good winter so far, lots of snow up high but not much in the valley. I have only pushed snow with my wheeler a couple of times this year. It ain't over but it sure is looking good water wise.
Now Jeff, about that cat contest... the sooner you can drop the flag the better. A couple of weeks ago I bumped into that old soothsayer that haunts the Lincoln area and he told me this was the year I would finally find that 36 incher and he even gave me a couple of specifics spots where the fish could be found. I'm pumped.
Get this silly ice out of the way and let the cat chase begin.
Looking forward to a "record" year.
