Another very nice summer day here today and I figured there was no better way to finish it off than taking a trip to see what might be biting. I launched and was set up a bit after 5pm; air temp a comfortable 79 and the water out over the basin

We had a simply glorious summer day here yesterday and I knew I was going fishing after work, no matter the wind situation. I loaded the boat and gear and was literally walking out the door when the phone rang. It was fishing buddy WC870 asking

I really wanted to wet a line today after the lousy weather we've had around here for the last week or 10 days. Nothing bad on the radar, weather guesser said only the slightest chance of an isolated pop up shower this morning so off I went

Took a solo trip last night to one of my local ponds to see if I could find some action. I got to my fishing area and first line in the water about 5:45, air temp at 83 and water temps about 81.
The first 15 minutes brought me 3 small

Hot as in more than just the air temperature! 870 and I fished a new patch of water for the both of us. We launched about 5:20 with heavy, humid air and a bit of a breeze, which actually felt darn nice to us both after a long working day outside.

After looking at the weather last night, it seemed my best chance for getting in a trip this weekend would be this morning. I loaded up and got my first line in the water just before 8. Air temp a humid 74 at water's edge and water temps were

After a rather long but productive day in the shop, I found enough gumption to load up for some aquatic therapy. I launched and got my first line in the water a bit late at 5:25. A bit of wind to contend with but not bad. The haze in the air

I got a call last night from 870 inviting me to fish with him this morning on one of his favorite spots. Of course I said yes, and we met and launched about 7 this morning. Quite a layer of fog a few hundred feet up over top of the water that

Pretty windy yesterday but I wanted to fish so I headed to a small pond that I haven't fished in a couple of years. I launched about 5:15 in to a wind from the Northeast that wouldn't ease off until after 7pm. Air temp at 74 and water temps

Finally, a trip where more crappie were caught than anything else. Beautiful day here yesterday and I just knew it was going to be a nice night to be on the pond. Launched about 5:10 with the air temp at 83 and the water temp out on the pond

I found myself with some extra ambition and put it to good use this morning by making another fishing trip. I pushed off from shore about 10:30, with the air temperature at 58 and the water temperature on this pond at 53. There is a lot of

The weather guesser's said that today would not be a windy as yesterday. They were wrong......... at least for the morning; there would be no vertical jigging today. But at least I had a nice setting once again. We had some pretty good rain

Another great day here in CT and I found it easy to not start another project in the shop late this afternoon just so I could sneak in another trip. Got on the water about ten to four with the air temperature at 67 and the water temp at 57.
...
Today was a perfect New England early fall day so I pulled the plug a bit early at work and hit the water. I just had to, it would have been a crime to miss out on such a nice day after the recent stretch of poor weather we've had here. I launched

I've been working around the house here, cleaning up a bunch of trees I had taken down. I've been sawing, stacking, splitting, stacking, cleaning up brush and bark, etc. Hasn't left a whole lot of time for fishing. Yesterday I split and stacked

We closed the doors at noon today for the long weekend. After taking care of some errands, I gathered my gear and headed for some fishing relaxation. Launched about 4:40 under cloudless blue skies, very little wind, air temp at waters edge
