Title: A sad day
Post by: aaron21x2 on Mar 11, 2009, 02:15 PM
No more Blueberry pancakes and venison breakfast sausage after the morning jigging session while waiting for flags to pop. :( No more games of hearts, spades or cribbage with good company :(  No more fresh grilled walleye for lunch :(Until we have a fresh six inches of ice next December!!! :)(http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/aaron21x2/perch2001.jpg)

I hear your pain, but there is always something good to look forward to . . . my boat will be in the water in about 3 weeks for some good open-water spring fishing on Lake Huron. Since you live in Rapid River, I assume you will also be enjoying the open waters of Little Bay de Noc.

Nope it didn't change. A lot of people pulling their shantys on this end with walleye season coming to a close.

Didn't mean to give you guys the wrong impression of quitting early. My shack was in the blue water area of the bay and the coast guard is/was supposed to be opening the shipping channels this week. Instead of moving it for a couple of maybe bad  days(with this weather) fishing we closed the walleye hotel for the season. We will be pestering the little fish (crappies,gills) on the inland lakes. Now I just have to figure out how to get my recliner in the portable :laugh:

Nothing is like ice fishing, it is a sad day.
