Catch a few for me. I'll be participating in a Kaizen event all next week. That damn work thing really gets in the way of my fishing time!

High of only 52 that day in trout country, but that's still warm for winter. Expect earlier hatches this spring based on our mild winter. Temps, not snow. Snow has little impact on hatches for the most part. Temps are what it's all about.

After this cold snap and a warmer than average few weeks, the long range forecast is calling for colder/snowier weather from late Feb/March as La Nina dissipates and more arctic air can break through to the Northeast/mid-Atlantic region. I believe this tracks with what Puxatawny Phil said, so it must be true!

Damned lawn rat.

I'm sure that'll be the case, my schedule starts to break around mid-Feb so once I'm able to get out more the cold crappy weather is bound to follow. I carry that kind of luck.

I had to walk a half mile of the SBR in the river today to do a conceptual design and had LBS crawling on me. I saw one trout rise repeatedly, and it had to be for them. Wind was blowing at times, but the warmth made you forget about the wind.
