    Smile Think spring, can you guess that spot

    I've met lots of people out on the ice this winter and the first think they ask is, "When are you going to start your spring pictures?" So, here you go friends, one of many to come!

    Have a great day,

    Sorry, it's not the part of the Big Island. The ducks are coming north last spring and they are Scaup (some people call them blue bills).

    Good try,

    Default Let me guess

    Could this be the north/northeast side of the big island. The pink rock would be just out of the picture to the right and the Fourmile area is behind.

    This is nothing but a wild guess, but since I heard you're giving away new St. Croix rods for each correct guess, I thought "go for it".

    I also thought "that Tiny Fisherman is really a great guy"!

    Default Way off the spot...

    Thanks guys, but no rod for you! Not even close on either count. Here I thought that I was giving it away with the last picture.

    Wish you luck in everything you do,

    Default It takes an Oldtimer to get it

    Hey Oldtimer, you were the only one even close. Though it was cool the big flock of ducks heading north, out on the big water. The back ground on the first shot was looking toward Crows Nest camp site. The second photo has Dollar Island in the forground.

    Looks like I'll have to give a few easy ones to get things rolling.

    Have a great weekend,

    Default Possible Tsunami

    I agree with Don Pemble as to the location, but my main concern is for the future of the flowage. If that guy falls off the tube, the tsunami could take out the dam.

    Default To good friends

    Don P. good to see that you still know where the flowage is. How's the shoulder doing? The walleyes will have the edge this spring.

    Don H. now what the heck does that mean? I'm just trying to keep the water level up.

    Gus, that is one crazy driver, always into the extreme.

    HRG, of corse its a "cold one", its past five (cocktail hour).

    Okay, now that I've thrown you some easy ones to get you back into it.

    Thanks one and all, your good friend,

    Default Guess on last photo

    Hey Tiny -

    Thanks again for posting the pictures. My guess on the last photo is that you are by the Mud Lake area looking north towards Baraboo.

    Default I've got it.....I think

    This is looking south from one of the islands that borders the Beaver Flats. I believe "Big Mama" is just out of frame on the left.

    Thanks. There's not much timber in the TFF that my brothers and I haven't bounced off of in the last 40 years.

    Default The Fox gets around.

    Tim,
    The same fox was by our cabins yesterday afternoon, as well. He was eating the apples we had thrown out between FV2 and Bill's place. We tried to get a picture, but he wouldn't pose for Kathy when she went out on the deck. Sure looks like an early ice-out.
