Untill my toes say its time to go.

Feb 17, 2013
Air temp: 32 deg
Water temp: 44 deg
Location: Back to the Northwest River
Wind: 10 to 20 mph gusts


  Woke this morning to meet up with Patrick at the Elizabeth River but was greeted with snow.  After I got the snow off the truck I headed down to the river where we felt that 10 to 20 mph winds was not going to work for us so we headed off to try our luck at the Northwest River.


  Got to the launch at 0900 and grabbed our gear then headed out toward and past the bridges to find some new holes to drop our lines in. 


  Bait of choice for the day was minnow and Beetlespins with minnows.  Right away I found a small school and was able to land two small Yellow Perch. That was about the end of my luck for the day.  After a few hours we headed back toward the bridge and tried there for a while.  Patrick landed some good sized Crappie.  I was also looking for the Crappie but it was not going to be my day.  We stayed till basically our toes said it was time to go home.  Even with the cold it was a great time out on the water.  I will do it again any time.
