A Little Warmth For You

We are expecting rain most, if not all, of next week. I wanted to clean the wood stove flue. It's been 4 weeks since I last did it and that makes me a week late doing it. So what does a good home owner do while he's waiting for the wood stove to cool enough for cleaning? He goes fishing, of course. I figured if I killed about 4 hours it should be cool enough to clean.

With the temperature expected to be in the low 70's I headed out to North Shore of Lake Camanche for a little warmth and Power Bait soaking.  

I thought you might enjoy sharing some warming pictures of the lake just in case you're buried up to your wazoo in snow.

 Oh yeh, I caught this bug eyed Rainbow while I was there. It came in at 2lbs. 2ozs.

A guy fishing next to me asked if I wanted the one he caught because one was no good for his smoker. I accepted and dropped both off at Bob's (just in case I need my driveway plowed next week).

Hope you warmed up a tad. Yes, the flue is clean. One other thing, since I stopped using the white rod holders I've not been skunked. Superstitious????
