Good luck this season Red. We had open water around here toward the end of February. I am just hoping this cooler weather doesn't start to put another layer of ice on the lakes. I am defintely ready to get things rolling. My initial plan was to take the boat to the shop late next week and also get on the water for a bit after things are taken care of. However, the long term weather forecast has changed quite a bit over the last few days. I'll call it a win as long as I can hit the water before March is out.

Any new gear, baits or techniques that you are looking forward to try this year Red? I don't have much. Gonna teach myself a couple new Fly patterns to tie and I started messing with some solar panels that I take with me in the boat to help extend battery life. Other than that, I'm just ready to get back into it.
