Speing is indeed here and I've taken the kids down to the lake a couple times and we've done well. Today I'll have se time to myself and plan to make the most of it. Beer, cigar, fly rod, float tube.
My dad sent me back from Christmas with his float tube for fly fishing that he bought on ebay several years ago but never used. I have a small local lake right next to my house now - and gave him a hard time about the float tube until he finally gave in. I mean, he's never been on a single hike, let alone a fishing destination hike in his life. Figured I would atleast break it in for him.
Anyone else been fishin lately? Can't wait for the shad / Striper run later
I grew up in NY/NJ, and never even tasted shad roe till I was a chef in California in my 20s...
We used to go up to the Adirondacks with nothing but a 30 pack, a pack of smokes, a lighter, and our rods. That was so much fun living off the river. We'd cook em up in the beer cans and use the cardboard to get a fire started. It was a worthy challenge for sure.
I haven't been up there in a couple years - miss it. Small kids and living half way across the country will do that I guess.

Down here in mid Atlantic this month. Stripers follow. We may be a tad behind with the late spring. Usually end of March is this kind of weather.
Smart ass
Man I need a fishing trip bad. Got BBI trolls on the brain
'Taint nuttin'.
We used to bowfish 'em when they'd spawn in the creeks...good times.
