Spring

 Spring

     Spring is finally here.  You know what that means...time to put away the ice fishing gear and get the boat out.  We took the neighbor, Tom, with us to Washington to do a little walleye fishing.  The weather channel said it was going to be a nice day, with 2 mph wind.  They lied...more like a 25 mph wind, cold and it rained on us.  But, we still fished though it.  We caught 17 walleye and I caught a burbot.  

       Since it's a three hour drive to our walleye hole, we decided to tough it out and stay the night in our tents.  The next day was nicer and the wind had calmed down.  We caught another 17 walleye, but no burbot.

Notice the walleye is missing an eye...bait.

Thanks Todd, for giving me some walleye, killer jigs.  Nice to see you again.
