4-12-2020: Happy Easter – Unfortunately This is Not a Fishing Report!
First of all, Happy Easter! Well, the past few weeks have been interesting to say the least. The 'Stay at Home' orders across the states vary a bit I think. We, in the state where I reside, were initially allowed to travel to second homes or properties owned. Not so anymore. Therefore I am not … Continue reading 4-12-2020: Happy Easter – Unfortunately This is Not a Fishing Report!

4-15-2019: Spring Has Sprung Right?!
We woke up this morning and it was somewhat 'white' around here. Yes, hopefully the LAST reminder that Winter occurred this past season - happened again last night. Yep, it snowed! At least it was just a trace of the white stuff that blanketed the ground. The driveway must have been too warm as it … Continue reading 4-15-2019: Spring Has Sprung Right?!
