Let's hope for some good cold weather the second and third weeks of December.  The first few days are looking very mild, but then it seems the temperature may take a dive. Fingers crossed :tipup: :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

Guys on the MA board are predicting next week for the Berks.  The 10-day forecast for here in RI has lows in the teens next Wednesday and Thursday.  ;D

Trying not to get my hopes up too much (remember last Christmas, 60 degrees?!) but things are looking up.

Welcome aboard, RIMainuh. Lots of good information and friendly folks on here. RI board is pretty slow compared to surrounding states, but there is a good little bunch of regulars.

There are some nice fish in Bowdish. To bad they drain it down so low. Makes it tough to find fishable water.

Used to fishing Maine lakes usually finding water isn't the issue up there. Just printed a depth map and Looks like I might have to fish the far side of the pond to get some water under my feet.

Went through all my traps and terminal tackle last night while watching the Pats. It's all in pretty good shape now. Pack Basket is stocked and ready.
