Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

The port of Los Angeles the last time I was out visiting family. I always hit the water at Huntington. No matter what time of year. Other than family, it's the only thing i miss from out there.

Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

Took this pic this morning dodging the falling ice........

I guess from where your settin we are pretty lucky. But, won't feeling quite so much 2am Friday night listening to the branches and tops crashin all round the house. A good one landed about a foot off my bass boat before I could drag it out in the clear. Thankfully no damage found to this point. 42* and sunshine for a good day of thawing out. But you all like the snow, that's why you live up there right??

Don't know what you mean by traps. I can relate to the snow over snakes deal but guess its all in what you are use to. We see snakes often enough that they don't bother me. Snow on the other hand gets old after the second or third day. It would make for some good hunting but by the time we get snow here most seasons are closed. And when the water temp drops to 40 the best fishing is done until about mid March.

Thanks Mark, Never any real concern. Just glad I don't have to make any roof repairs. Just some limbs and debris to load up and haul away.

I do fish traps!!! Mostly farm ponds and a few local lakes where I know what color they like. 80% of my fishing is with sinko's and top water depending on which bite is on at the time. I use to fish whatever would bite but for the last 3 yrs I've had bass fever real bad.........

Great picture Mark!

Gents, thank you for all the photos. To help clarify, because there are several entries, who's entry is actual and was taken this month?


This will greatly help me with posting the voting poll towards the end of the month.
