I fish.. I am fortunate to live in Jacksonville. So I have 12 months of fishing and when the bass are not on.. There is inshore fishing for reds, trout, drum... you name it in the ICW here..

 

[Bryan McDonough]

Water temps in the mid 50s, is a great time to fish in Texas. It must be tough not being able to fish.

 

[Travis Smith]

With the water temp being ICE...lol its tough to do anything besides ice fish (too cold) and snowmobile (heated handlebars keep ya warm).

I have 2 power plant lakes nearby so if the weather is not too cold and the ramps are not icy I can go fishing when I need to wet a line.

 

[Staci Matheis]

.....put on 5 pounds.....

I am no fan of cold weather so my extent of outdoor winter activities is to walk to the end of the driveway and get the mail.



Winter is when I catch up on the honey doo list I put off during the warm weather. Now that my honey doo tasks are done I spend time researching real estate in Florida. I am liking the idea of becoming a "Snowbird" more and more.



Come on spring!

Well I took the Body for Life Challenge and have lost about 15 lbs. I think iam to the point where iam gaining muscle now.



I have been making spinnerbaits when time permits. I have a few made up, and I will post them on here when i get a chance.

 

[Kenneth Brown]

You could spend some of that time learning how to make your pictures SMALLER LOL KB

 

[Mark Gross]

Travis,I read about(BASS) fishing all i can get my hands on

and then I watch vidio's on fishing,the same ones over and over.Then I watch fishing shows on fox and OLN ESPN2 AND OTHERS. you can never read to much. Then I look at my Bass catalog or visit the local tackle or outdoor store.(no BBS close) And sometimes if it is above 30* you can bounce a rubber plug of the ice !

 

[David Hunt]

Work.

Hey Gross do you have Cable TV? Comcast has a new thing called on Demand where you can pick a movie or event and watch it, it has pause, fast forward and rewind features. Even better they have fishing shows you can play any time you want. This morning I watched the In-Fisherman F+L+P special and will be watching the Opportunities, Soft Plastics and Spinner Bait shows later today.

[Mark Gross]

CASS, It is available here but I didn't know I could do that with it.

Thanks

 

[Rich D]

That on-demand thing is da bomb! The only problem is they don't update the shows often enough!

 

[Steve Rizza]

I put voodoo curses on all the posters here from Fla,Tx,Ca.and other warm states who remind us northerners that they are still fishing.LOL

[Mike Newman]

I have had a plastic worm "side" business for a number of years so I spend the approx 4 months of winter making my inventory for next year so that I don't cut into my fishing/golfing time when the orders come in througout the summer. I also tinker with new lure ideas/molds.

 

[William H. (Bill) Barham]

Dream of moving somewhere I don't have to winterize my boat and where a cold snap is NOT below 60 degrees.



Bill

 

[Travis Smith]

Sounds like we all have our different things we do druning the winter.



KB I was thinking that someone would say that. I tried croping the picture but it was a pain. Technology these days....lol.







Have a good weekend,





T.S.

 

[Mike L.]

All the work around the house and yard that I should have been doing, but put off 'till later' during the fishing season!

 

[Staci Matheis]

Travis -



You don't crop it - you resize it.



If you've got MS Photo editor..... In the resizing function, you have a choice between inches and pixels. I always resize to about 550 pixels for the maximum of the two dimensions. That seems to work just about fine!
