What's happening? I thought spring arrived 3 weeks ago?
I was all geared up... spooling new lines and shinning my lures, scheduling to get the boat out of hibernation soon.... that won't happen
Don't even want to go out anymore. Going back under the blankets. Wake me up after Easter.

Re: FrostBite Time
Good info Relax, thanks. I did make it out Sunday for a few hours. It was 28 degrees when I left the house for the 2 hour drive. When I got to the launch on the Winooski river, the motor wouldn't start. Frozen gas line. It took a couple of hours before it thawed out enough to start. I guess I didn't run the motor long enough to get the sea foam in the lines before putting up the boat. But we finally got out and managed to go 1 for 2 with a 3 lb laker in the boat on a pink yo-zuri pin minnow on a planer board. It felt great to be on the water. I might launch out of Converse this weekend if it opens up. The Greenhorn is open for business! Best of luck all.
