When the Going Gets Tuff.. The Tuff Get Going

I wanted to share with you guys/gals a photo my fishing partner took of me last Monday when fishing the Ocmulgee
River here in Georgia. Unfortunately, I got skunked due to the cold weather and muddy water conditions. It
was a beautiful day to be outside!! Much...much better than doing "honey do's" at home. I thought the photo was
exceptional to capture the moment!! Can't wait until spring!!

Great pic. I would love to do something like that but I don't think I would have the time to learn how to do it safely.

The water temp was 51 degrees at the beginning of the float. We would have probably caught more fish if the water
hadn't been so stained from the recent rain storms that blew through here a week ago. I don't know how your
guys do it way up north!! I once visited Rochester, N.Y. on Lake Erie on a business trip to the Kodak plant there
and the weather was awful.

(Had one of those squals) I'm not much of a cold weather person, so I guess I'll stick
with the temperate conditions here in the south.
