The weather around here has been awesome. In fact the winter has been so mild and dry I've only had the snow blower out twice. Once to make sure it was running okay and once to actually clear the driveway.
So........when is dip the boat day in your area.

My marina said as soon as the docks are ice free in go the boats.

Re: Almost spring

I'm ready to throw it in now, but need to do a few odds and ends. I am aiming to start my season 4/15.

Re: Almost spring

I have another weekend at least making some repairs to the trailer.....anytime after that is fair game....winter flounder season starts 3/23 so I will definitely like to give that a shot in March.

We have had awsome warm weather, but the only place the water is deep enough is in the ditchs, the lakes still have 30 inchs of ice.:rolleyes:

Re: Almost spring

Here in NE Ohio I think spring has finally broken thru. We're supposed to get some rain, but the Accuweather 15-day forecast shows low to mid 50's from here on out. I'm shooting for April 10th. Can't wait to get out there again!

In the mean time, I've got 2 rooms of my house filled with new boat stuff I need to install. Just stripped and repainted the trailer today. Nothing like water projects to get you in the spring mood!

Re: Almost spring

70 here today! First time this year we have went past the 60 mark.
It's been unusually cold with temps way below normal all winter.

Another couple weeks or so will be time to take the winter cover off,give it a good cleaning and fire it up...:D
