Beating the Winter Blues

It was a long and busy winter for work and not a lot of spare time to get out fishing. Only touching the hard water once, the fishing/winter blues have set in. Dropped a couple floats to break the ice and am patiently waiting ice out conditions, the arrival of our third child and hopefully get the boys out for a panfish smack down. Owen (5 1/2) and Max (2 1/2) are wondering when the boat will return home and want to test out some new rods that Santa kindly delivered at Christmas. Hope everyone had a safe and successful ice season. I was jealous watching everyone’s posts on NPS and other social media outlets. Cheers and all the best everyone!
