The Ice Is Melting

The ice is melting up here finally, but we still have a long way to go before any open water fishing is going to take place. I am going to be in Illinois for the last week of April. I am going to stop by Shabbona's  Lakeside on Friday afternoon to have a beer and talk with the Sand's for a while! Then I will be in Louisana for training for a whole month! OMG it is going to be HOT. We Alaskans don't like hot weather!
