Good time for sure.Plenty of those trips comming up in the spring.I dont do the all day trips on sunday having to work that night.Usually go friday or saturday.Hit Mansfield again yesturday.Miserable. There was a guy fishing near me from mass who showed me a dated photo of a 21lb 14oz pike he caught last saturday and said his buddy got a 18pounder this saturday.Pike tournament there next sat.Im hitting coventry lake this saturday.determined to get some walleye.

Bob,Im glad you got work.We can always find time to fish,But it doesnt pay the bills.My son just broke the spring on the front strut today.Called a garage $450 CRAZY.I called the junk yard $40 complete assembly.I will do it myself.There goes my fishing. They put a gate in front of the public boat launch at alexander lake.Im gonna call franklin widlife and get the scoop.Went town hall to get a pass for amston lake.Told me you have to live within a mile to qualify to use the lake.You beleive that.

I just heard alexander lake has no public access anymore.They put a gate on the boat launch.Ive been fishing there for 20 years.The state stocks that lake with our money.I dont see how that can be legal.

Looks like rain this afternoon.Like to give coventry lake a try tomarrow.

Bob,Just got back from thames.The boat launch is solid ice.Ice 10 feet out all around that side of the dock.will post some pictures later.gotta catch couple zzzzz.Made a couple casts around nothing.Open water only in center of harbor . you can fish the dock on left side of launch.Im going stick to ice fishing while its good.The last week of february and 1st week of march is usually the best fishing for those holdover stripers.20-30 per hr.when the schools are so thick you can feel the lure bumping through the fish.And a couple keepers in the mix.
