I figured it was about that time to start logging in.  Temps are dropping. Outlook is looking good this year. Hopefully we will all be to fish this year. Looking forward to fishing with you guys this year :tipup:

1 of the ponds I drive by on my way to work the last 2 days was 60-75% skimmed over.....of course by the time the sun comes up it melts, but it is a step in the right direction...

  • I FISH BECAUSE THE VOICES IN MY HEAD TELL ME TO!!
kb......keep an eye on that pond near Salt Point Tpke. (I forget the neme).... it usually freezes first (shallow) and it's loaded with Trout.  About two hours drive for me, but worth it!!

Anyone fish Orange Lake recently I remember fishing it with my dad and a guy he works with a bunch of years ago and caught some nice pickerel wondering if it is still a decent fishery.

There are many ponds along that route.  If its the one Im thinking about, It does have some deep holes and nice big crappie.  If you can think of the name, let me know......

The time has come, the season is right,
I did not get any sleep last night.
Alone in the dark, I sit with my thoughts,
Hoping all my effort will not be for naught. 

Im sitting in a tree,  just waiting for a sound to draw near. 
Be it a crack, a snap, the crunch of a leaf,
Just let it be a deer, for goodness grief. 
I sit and wait for first light you see,
To shoot the deer that comes nearest to me. 
Be it a buck or a doe I don't really care
I've found no recipe for antlers to bear

It finally getting lighter, 
the morning sun is rising, it's kissing the day,
As the Journey man would say,

It's final judgement for Bambi, will he live or die by me,
I'll look thru my scope, and it depends what I'll see
It it's big and brown, it will go down,
If I think its small, my finger will stall,
And another day it will see. 
But sooner or later, the storm will come
There will be a sound of thunder,  and a rain of lead,
sooner or later a deer will be dead. 

It's opening day of gun season in the southern zone. Be safe and good luck everyone.
