Jeff:

Thanks for the report, its fun to be getting ready for the soft water season. Dropped my boat in the water at the Thorofare boat landing yesterday. She started, idled well, run backwards off the trailer, motored at full speed and I got it on the trailer again. Now the floor work... and she's ready for the opener... Wooo Hooo!!!

Oh forgot to say that I fished some local water in the Mercer area yesterday, we started with 13" and by the time we left it was down to 12" with any where from 2" to 6" of slush on the top. I am done for the ice season as I understand the bridge street landing in Tomahawk is available for boaters.
