Afflicted: A Primer for Winter River Smallmouth Fishing | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Afflicted: A Primer for Winter River Smallmouth Fishing | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Each spring, I get a chuckle out of comments from people who know me only casually.  “It’s almost fishing season, are you getting excited?” inquires a coworker.  “Yep, I’m ready!”  I reply without further explanation.  I’m ready when the first red maple buds drop, and I’m ready at 4:30 a.m. on an early February Saturday morning when the forecast features freezing rain."

Fallen Through the Ice? What to do? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Fallen Through the Ice? What to do? | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "The best way to avoid falling through is to not go out on the ice at all. But for those of us in the north who live and recreate outdoors... we will eventually find ourselves on the ice. Ice fishing, trapping, ice skating, ice boating and cross country skiing are a few activities where you may find thin ice.
    I don't consider "falling through" breaking through ice and getting your toes wet. "Falling through" means going in at least up to your chest. With that defined, I have fallen through ice three times while ice fishing and once while trapping. My father (Randy) and brother (Scott) have fallen through a dozen or more times, all while trapping. Are we stupid? Debatable, but I'd like to think not. Did we go out on thin ice? Not intentionally."
