What do you do as the weather gets too cold to fish?

Have you already respooled all your rods? Repaired all your damaged
equipment? fogged and stored your boat?

snowing since noon .I hate winter


Heard that. And we will occasionally get some snow here during winter, but
most years, we can fish 300 days if we want to. You may have to bundle up a
little on some of those days, but they're fishable otherwise.

I'm lucky, I get to fish year round if I so choose. Warm(er) days during
December-January here (central NC) can find lake fish biting anywhere

from
brush piles on deep flats to up near the bank near or on submerged creek
beds - especially near where creeks or other runoff waters come into the
lake, and often create a small warm water discharge area.

And from the beginning of December through January, we can head out to

the
coast and hit the striped bass that run along most of our coast during
that
time. Usually we go up to Oregon Inlet (North of Cape Hatteras) to put

in
and we'll fish from Cape Hatteras to the South all the way up to near

the
VA
line above Kitty Hawk and Corolla to the North.

And of course, February is nearly the best month around these parts to
find
"big" bass. As big as bass as we can get here in NC with the lack of
Florida
strain fish anyway...

It ain't to bad here. We can fish 365 if we choose. Even catch some fish
if we work at it.

Dang man,,, I was making a "JOKE" did you not see the :-) ?



Rodney I think I have voiced similar criticizm to you myself. I have always
given your ideas a fair shake, and I have gone out and seriously tested the
samples you have sent me in the past. I like the Standout Hook (and also
wish it had a longer shank), I don't care for the bungee rig, and the Mojo
weight is as good as any other dropshot weight and there are a few
circumstances where it might be better.

I also think that you get worked up and upset too easy. I respect that you
are always thinking and that you have the will to gamble on your own ideas,
but I also think you get upset when you should take criticizm and adjust.

Then again I think most independent business owners and inventors are a
little high strung. I know I have seen Bob go off on a rant once or twice
too. I certainly have. Don't even get me started on guys who just want a
paycheck, but don't want to work or even learn how to work. lol.

P.S. I'm still waiting on my sample bug repellant.

I appreciate that Rodney, I really do. I can see your hook being a valuable
asset to an entry-level dropshotter that might have a hard time tying a
proper polamar knot. But that's where it ends for me. A dropshot rig in
its purest (& most effective) form is a tiny, no-frills hook & a
finesse-type bait. Sure, some people "bubba-up" their dropdhot rigs with
heavy line, sinkers & bigger hooks & baits, but even these rigs only need
use a standard shaped hook. I'm partial to the "octopus" style myself.

Too cold to fish?
I tie flies till the lakes have enough ice to walk on, then I go punch
holes, drop my Aqua View and sit on a bucket all day. It gets a little
frosty, but the crappie and blue gills I pull through the ice are so
good....(Catch and release into hot grease.)

Then there are a few fishing shows to attend followed by the new Cabela's
and Bass Pro Shops catalogs.

I fix my tackle when the ice is starting to break up and do it all at once.

I usually try to make a trip to the Northfork River in late February or
early March and by the time I get back, I can launch the boat.

Actually prefer a j-hook style worm hook and I use a Trilene knot. Its a
little awkward to tie with that long tag end, but when I flip tag around and
drop it thrugh the eye its real easy to make that hook stick out. I like to
t-rig my dropshot worms since I am usually d-shotting in grass beds rather
than over rocky bottoms.
