I'm not ready for ice yet.

I was going to go out for the steelhead today on the Grand River but man.... it's windy out there. I have no desire to get pushed over by the wind and sit down in the river today. It's to cold out there !!!!

Oh man , your breaking my heart[crazy]!
Fishing for crome , any weather will do[cool]!!!!!!

Usually every new years day you can find me at the bottom of the steps at Tippy dam , bright and early [cool] .
Getting up that hill , well thats a story in itself , no stairs are left , just a sled run down to the river [pirate].

Ice , December 3rd. Fishable ice By the 12th .

that wind was somtin else,

I have been in the woods watching trees falling all round me, that and the sideways falling rain made the hunt real pleasurable,

I figure what the hay, I may as well get on the hunt now before bush gets some one else to raise termoil over there and raise his oil embargo even higher...

remember all them canadian quarters no body wanted? bet ya wished you had a pocket full of them now... we used to get a buck and some change in the US to Kanuk buck, now we have to pay a buck and some change.... makes me wonder how them guys are fealing coming over from winsor to detroit to gambel.... Loosing some change when going back over the boarder, and what about the guys from here who will now have to pay a buck and some change to buy a poker chip [pirate]

any way, that wind was fearce, the tweetie birds finaly showed back up today after being gone since mondays bout of rough weather.... Had a few twitters land on me, saw some hawks and an owl and a bunch of other birds... no deer, not even a fesh track, did see a fresh pile of horsey chips...

Hey , my buest guess for snow , hmmmm , I'll pick today [crazy] !
Yep a little over 2-1/2 " , most of it was gone by the time I left work .
shure made the pines look real pretty .
Saw a doe cross the road this afternoon , stoped and waited to see if anything was on her tail , nothing after 10 minutes .
