So today after lunch I decided to see how the snow melt was going, and it is going well. The sun was out in full force today. The temp was in the mid 40's and I am sick of sitting in the house. So I had my wife drop me off at one of my favorite trail heads, and I spent two hours trying to find hard snow to walk on. The soft snow was still between mid shin and knee deep, but I did not care anymore, I needed to get out of the house. The walk took me along a stream that I was told has native and wild trout in it. So this walk was part fresh air and part scouting mission. My camera is worthless at this point and a new one will most likely be a late spring to early summer investment. For now I am going back to my phone as a camera it does well enough as long as I keep it clean (it was not clean today so the shot is not great, oh and the sun was making for a tough picture).

Well Spring is coming, but there is still a good 15 inches to deal with in some areas. Maybe I will head to PA and do some fishing soon. I am very ready to get out on the water again. On a side note, I have not mentioned this yet, but I won a fly box in a give away last week. So thanks to the
Foul Hook blog for the new box and when it comes I will take pictures and try to fill it. I already have an idea of what flies I want to put in it.
Okay it is late and the new work schedule has me up a quarter of 4 and out the door by 4:30 am. Do not forget about Sunday's big announcement.
