River Day 01/31/2011


With the warmer temps and longer days, it won't be too long until spring. And that means fishing "season" is also right around the corner. Jay and I decided to get head-start and both bought our licenses earlier today. I think the goal was to get our money's worth by being legal for every month. Whatever the reason, I (Mark) tried to fish a little. I didn't spend much time at it, and didn't get any bites, but at least I can say I fished in January.

We were a little surprised that the river wasn't any higher than it was this week. All of the snow that we've had over the last several weeks has all but melted away, and the ground is saturated. If you check the pictures on this blog from this time last year, we were preparing for a flood. The level now is actually a little lower than "normal" for this time.

As always it was a great night at the river; Ted and Tim were also down this week.

And I'm pretty sure we had the best fire on the river.
