"Most of the world is covered by water. A fishermans's job is simple: Pick out the best parts." Charles Waterman

"One thing becomes clearer as one gets older and one's fishing experience increases, and that is the paramount importance of one's fishing companions." John Ashley-Cooper

"There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home." Roderick Haig-Brown

Opening Day

It's almost here.  Only a day and a half left until many anglers around the state cast a line into local rivers and streams.  Usually this would mean lakes also, but with ice still on many lakes around the state, I imagine lake fishing will be held up for a couple more weeks, at least in most places.  This time of year brings excitement, but I can't help but be a little worried as it has snowed here the past two days, rained hard one day, and barely broke above 40 degrees.  The rivers will be high, muddy, fast flowing, and difficult to fish.  Sounds like a challenge and I'll take it just at that.  Get ready for the fun to begin.  Good luck!
