Nice!  Open water is here!  That means laker fishing is about to heat up, too

It was a little colder than expected.  I’ve had good luck with crappie and perch on the fly rod after ice out.  Probably need another 5-10 deg bump in water temps.

Cold AF in the mountains still.   Winter took its sweet time showing up but the laker grounds have many more weeks to go.   At least another month.  Havent even been to granby yet this year I should get my snow machine running  ;D
