Screw this wx. Down right depressing. I'm even thinking of taking my
fly rod to Chicago at the end of April.

There aren't many fish to catch in Chicago unless you want to include a few
people that I know.

Or some restaurants that serve fish of which there are many in Chicago!

Mongolia sounds better!

Chicago sounds closer.....and cheaper.

fish a boy needs to eat.

excellent opportunities to bail out in the event of necessity.....or
whim.

I just got an e-mail from the owner of the private stretch of the **** River
and he says the water is perfect temp. due to spring feeds even with cold
air temps. The Rainbows average 6 lbs. in that mile-long stretch of river.
Come to think of it, it isn't snowing or sleeting right now and the air
temps ar in the 40's today. hmmmmmm

Bastids... here's the local forecast for the weekend:
http://wwwa.accuweather.com/forecast...e=58701&fday=2

Icefisherman are saying the ice is running about 24 inches thick,
which really screws up the flycasting, even with heavily weighted flies.

I saw an ice fisherman once. On TV he was an ice sculpture in some
winterfest in Minn.

No can do. Have an wedding to go to the day before I leave and have
to get straight back for an art show (the kid'll be showing her
stuff).
Tonight, the temp here will be -8 with -30 windchill. SCREW IT!!!
Tonight's cryogenic entombment brought to you by global warming, the
state of Nebraska and the Jamaican Tourist Board.

Chi town, smallies be damned. Besides, I'm still in therapy for another 4
to 6 weeks yet (that's shoulder therapy btw) Should be ready to pester
the local bluegill population by April.

Well, it doesn't have to be like within the city limits or
anything......must be something within a couple hours drive one way or
another that would be workable for what has gotten to be a sizeable
ROFFian contingent in the region. Besides, I'm sure your various
moving parts will thaw before any likely waters in this part of the
world. :)
