17-Jan-10 Update
The next issue of TCS is coming along nicely and I hope to have copies available for our upcoming visit to White River Fly Shop on January 28th. We will have features on Caddis and Buck Tail, The Great Lakes Shoreline Fishery, and Hitting the Ice when you can’t hit the river. It should be a good read.
The visits to the site have leveled off a little but that is due to my lack of communicating with the good folks who stop by the site and want to know what is going on. So, look for more posts from me here and I will probably utilize some of the social networking sites a little more.
I was discussing the fishing around town with my dad and brother yesterday and we were getting some real time reports from out on the ice. They reported that the place was asshole to elbow but the fish were few and the ones they were landing were dinks. It seems to be a recurring theme with the Lake St. Clair perch fishing. We have vowed to try a smaller lake next time out but reports are not favorable from any of the local lakes either. We will probably give it a try though … because we are addicted.
I am making my way through Glenn Beck’s book, Common Sense and can’t put it down. I have three words for everybody, “Wake Up America” and take your country back. The bums who have strayed so far from our great constitution need to thrown out on their backsides and a great restoration of the American system and values needs to occur. If we don’t start electing folks that uphold the constitution as its written instead of interpreting it as their own living experiment there will be no more fishing and hunting. Get to it America … I believe in you!!
The weather is slated to remain mild but not too warm. The ice should hold and the river fishing should come to life with the bump in temps. I will be getting out soon and I hope that you will to.
Don’t forget to stop by the site, pick up a copy or subscription of The Cedar Sweeper, and visit us at The White River Fly Shop on the 28th of January.
Oh yeah, want to see what happens when you mix ice fishing, beer, and a crazy fur hat?
Thanks for dropping by.
