It's a boy! And other stuff...

 

IT'S A BOY! We found out we are having a boy and I can't even describe how excited I am. I have been busy hanging cameras, taking down stands (finally) and throwing a few lures here and there. I had lunch with the guys from FishNerds.com a few weeks ago. We talked fishing over some fresh redfish sandwiches at Bob's Clam Hut. The Fish Nerds produce a podcast on iTunes and run a website (www.FISHNERDS.com). They are based out of New Hampshire and recently completed a quest to catch and eat every freshwater fish in New Hampshire. Now they are looking to possibly take on a new quest and hopefully I can help them out. They are fun guys and are definitely worth downloading on iTunes!
Not a whole lot to share right now other than pictures and I can just explain them with captions. I am still waiting on my bow. The Hoyt Faktor should be here any day and I am kind of bummed I probably won't have it ready for Turkey season next week.

I took Rusty with me to work to spool some reels. We had to check out the tidal pool behind the store.

I needed a lot of line!

Shaking off the cold water.

I threw everything I had this day. I've been told due to the dams on both sides, there are no fish here before July.

Frozen boat launch.

Getting some sun.

Iceberg hopping.

Even worms didn't provoke a bite today.

Here is a reservoir Rusty and I checked out that is right after the Skelton Dam.

There is a hand carry launch site here that is pretty cool.

The waters were rushing like crazy this day. It was loud!

Cotton.

Either a rock or a nice fish straightened out my Mepps. Probably not the latter.

Spittle.

You wouldn't even know I was fighting 60mph gusts.

My fishfinder.

I set up a mineral site. It was not visited though at anytime during the week.
