My day to work was nothing like a vacation. An hr in I was ready to leave. No real report I can muster tonight, only the very few pictures I took.
After reviewing and work today. I'm not done yet. A big tournament is happening where I was this week so I'm recharging at home for next week.

Last picture, 45fow, 100 yards off shore. All the lake trout you could catch, if you can catch them

Ha, that didn't take long.  You go to work to rest, I love it.
 

I go to work to do what I have to get done. When I'm away, the mice ( management) play. Big ideas , little results for my labor efforts. After almost 30 years, it' gets old because the workforce is always the staple with little agenda except providing for their family and next weekend adventures instead of the next promotion in another country.
It's tough to right a ship when the captain's keep changing direction of the crew.

Nope didn't take long for me to miss the ice. A week off will help or hurt and I get lazy.
Not yet to uncover the soulshine and pack the shanty away

This morning I noticed the Daffodils are starting to push out of the ground,it won't be long now.

That's a bummer. I don't want to start mowing grass and clearing the pool yet.
There is a big tournament happening on the ice at schroon lake this weekend. Draws many people, near and far. I don't like crowds and don't participate but have seen some very interesting things from there.

This is going to be my week off as I been ice fishing every week since Dec 15th. As in the past, I never bag the season until at least March 15 when pike closes or after if the trout waters remain good.
Tell those flowers, it's not spring yet !!

12 " solid ice and a 28" laker taken today.
Guess what the cat dragged in to play with Sat.

Well , I had my extension ladder and gear all packed to go this morning but got a call about midnight my friends daughter in law was in an accident so he wasn't going to make the trip. Didn't want do it solo so unexpectedly, my season is over

That's too bad Rich. I spent another ay in front of the Syrup fire. 9 hours from 30 to 4
