How to Tell the Winter's Been Too Long! OT
Good Lord, it's getting bad up here. We had a morning of freezing rain
mixed with snow, and I decided around noon that I should probably see about busting up some ice build-up on the front walk. I walked out the front door and in between the front porch and one of the "ornamental" bushes planted out front, there stood an adult whitetail doe, nibbling away on the now decimated shrub. She stood there, watching me as I walked across the porch, said in a loud voice "Get out of there!" and whacked her on top of her noggin with the flat of my hand!!!! She WALKED away, stood in front of the neighbor's house and looked offended that I would interrupt her session at my salad bar! I don't know who's worse, the deer for allowing me to get that close or me for slapping her? I really think I need to go fishing. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com

It's so close you can taste it right Steve? You sound a lot like me. I stop
answering calls and refuse to return calls when the temps slowly start rising. Knowing I will be fishing soon. I really want to be out fishing in the worst way.
