The 3-6 inches of snow they forecasted turned out to be a couple flurries. Now I'm starting to get ready for my Easter visit to the daughter and some Steely fishing,so far the reports have been good and I can't wait to hear the drag scream!

Thanks for the weather link Greg . We don't like stormy weather , it makes bad fishing

Btdt . Heavy work week and now the 3 day weekend thanks to the good Friday
I will take the 3 days to get more work done in preparation for the big splash . Sometimes being in a union relationship has its benefits although it comes at a cost

   Happy Easter to everyone. Been at it a little here locally got my first carp of the year earlier this week no luck yet with the bass or pike but really haven't tried. Hoping for a nice opening day next Friday. The local TU is having a fishmas eve on Thursday night so I'll be hitting that up for sure I'll be buying drinks so I can get the jump on the others Friday morning. Trout Bum I'll give you a call mid week can't wait to get out there the picture have been some nice fish for sure hope we have some luck.

Going to give it a try for Steel Easter AM in downtown Cleveland on the Rocky,water is high right now but in a day it should be fishable and the temps will be near 70 with a south wind,will give a report later in the day.

Caught a slew of suckers today on the Rocky,did n't bring any Steel to hand but lost a couple.Temps got into middle 70's with a nice South breeze,those anglers around me that were using sacks caught a bunch,had hard time finding the "right"fly.Thunder tonight with rain continuing Monday wiil raise and muddy the water,Wed might be good.

So I just got back from a cruise and am ready to get the boat out. I learned to never take a cruise from NJ in March. It snowed the first two nights on the boat and the wind was horrible the last two back. Overall it was another pretty good experience on close to the biggest boat in the world. Lobster every night and as much as you wanted. Food was good company was good and the shows were good. Even won a trivia contest. It's cool and windy here as well as raining. I want to try one day this week.............

You are not alone with that statement DarDys...........  I've had plenty of people tell me that!!

The wind stopped here but it's still cool,lower 30's,tomorrow will be nice so out I go for another try at some Steel if I can find some fishable water.

Truck just left with AAA for the garage. no fish within walking distance, and now I have a 10 AM funeral to attend on opening day, the last aunt of the preceding generation. now it will all be siblings and cousins.   Murphy has not been shining on my retirement fishing!

We went to port Canaveral (florida), Nassau, Bahamas and a private island. There were roughly 6000pople on this boat with workers so yes it is crowded, but there was always good eats and something to do. Weather was great today, but this weekend it turns around.  Gonna try the river tomorrow after work rain or not.

Just sitting here at the 'puter' with my buddy 'joe' watching the weather radar.  Sure enough the rains cometh and according to the report, bringing plenty of wind with it.
 
Sun is just breaking the tree tops  lighting the empty pasture across the road.  Wind is subtle out of the south yet strong enough to keep my flag waving over the front yard.
 
The sky is a light gray spotted with darker shades of clouds, setting their sails to the north.
 
Temperatures, in my little piece of Penn's Woods, are expected to drop  several degrees each day til reaching the upper thirties for a high on Tuesday then, rebound back to the mid fifties on Wednesday.
 
Wind chimes on the porch are beginning to sing, the flag is a bit brisker in her wave and, the now leafless branches of a pin-oak are, shaking just outside the front window.
 
I guess you could say March will be going out, or maybe April is coming in, like a lion.

Super r3, glad your island hopping went well and you had exceptional weather.  Did ya bring some of that back with ya, by chance?? 
 
We listened to thunder just as the snow machine began firing up about 7:30 PM yesterday, delivering some wet heavy snow then just as fast as it started, everything stopped, except for the stupid wind.  Having seen the warnings posted, I stowed my flag for safe keeping and darn glad I did.  The way the wind was ripping most of the night, I expected to see the flag pole looking like a pretzel this morning.
 
Some snow and thunder
 Followed by this.
Then finding this on April 3!!
 
I want to go to the Caribbean!!!!!! 
 
 
Think Spring and tight lines to all!!
 

We got 6 plus inches, put it is melting as the ground is warmish. Wind is howling and it is nasty. I got the barn mucked out and I am spent. Yesterday my pig got out and it was an adventure getting him back in. I cannot believe the damage to the lawn in just a half hour.

Grass is green again already here . Probably gonna make it grow like crazy now :(
Can I borrow your pig for an hr Clint ?
Huge stride in the man cave this weekend, indoor - lighted shooting trap , all ice gear and hunting storage in place and now working on moving my fishing rods and gear as well as hanging my vintage 1960's posters .
Kinda glad the weather was chitty this weekend otherwise I would have been out and about on the water somewhere and this never would have got done .
Pretty amazing how much stuff accumulated in a 16 x 60' space
