ICE???!!!!!

Apparently mother nature hasn't got the e-mail that its January, and we are supposed to be ice fishing, and setting tip ups.....50 degrees here in Kalamazoo yesterday....ugh..


It certainly has been a while since the last posting... but it has been a busy busy year.

We have had steelhead runs, salmon runs, pre rut, rut, post rut, and now its 2012...
Cat fishing has been good, deer hunting was good for many, now we just need ice to start the year off right.

Catfishing is going to be a new summer pastime for us... if you think that bass put on a fight, wait 'till a 10 lb flathead bites on the bait!!
Of course a nice carp will put a serious bend in your rod as well....

Deer hunting for me was fair, but I'm still looking for "The Buck."  But I guess that is what 2012 is for.
I did however get a fair amount of venison for the family...plenty of venison summer sausage to go around!


Hopefully the arctic blast develops some hard water for us to get after some frozen fish....
