Winter is a state of mind

The dawn of Spring is almost upon us! Although we have all been beaten and weathered by storms, some braving the conditions for a quick fix, but finally months of waiting out the cold are almost at an end.  Regardless of the changes to many of our fisheries regulations and seasons we are almost to the best part of the year and it only gets better each day from here on out.  So much to look forward too 

Can I get an AMEN!
I forgot what real winter was like.

Fantastic Positive Perspective

Boom!  I am reminding many that spring is near.   Kickin’ off with a long muddy sit tomorrow for that ol’ diamondback.   

One more atmospheric river next week... then I'm hopeful that spring is here.

Thank you, Alain!

this winter has been good practice for when I move to the state of Washington

Ugh, so tired of the rain and wind!  I am taking some PTO during spring break to spend with the kiddos - hoping weather mellows out and halibut starts picking up by then!

What part of WA?  I lived in Seattle (Capitol Hill) 2003-2007 and Westport 2007-2009.  Seattle was getting about 40 inches of rain a year then, and Westport was across the harbor from the only temperate rainforest in CONUS - about 110-inches a year.  Beautiful place, and so much stuff to do!  The rain just becomes a part of life, because it happens often.  More grey days than here for sure, but it doesn't often rain in torrents like it does here, so it isn't quite as obstructive as it is here.  My parents lived in Yakima for a few years too - very dry and rugged. 

Started looking just recently…so not sure yet .

planning to hit the water somewhere on Sunday, may just be Folsom Lake in my own backyard, may be Bullards for some Koke-cicles.  maybe out to the bay for a shot at some flatties and the great views

The sunshine this weekend is gong to be soooooo nice.     Might even wet a line

Hey Brian, Ken and I will be at Bullards this Saturday. You're welcome to join us. I cant do Sunday.

yah, Saturday should be better, I'm volunteering at a St Patricks day dinner on Saturday though

Yup. Can't wait for a stretch of warm weather to start hittin' the trails.

Damn mother nature throwing me a curvball yet again.  It's March, but I woke up to freezing temps like it was January again.  Anyway, trying to focus that good energy into positivity and even though tomorrow may be bringing yet another storm our way.  This weekend I am going to force myself to wet a line whatever the cost maybe.  Don't care if I get a bite, I need that OTW therapy session as soon as possible  .
