See the smile on this guy's face...


That's after enduring three downpours to get his first fish. And yes the genny and lights were running the whole time. [:-]


I've even been dumb enough to shoot fish when it's below freezin'.


And when it was "too windy" to bowfish... (this picture doesn't do justice to just how rough that lake was)


So I'll be there to retrieve my trophy.

Bring your parisols ladies.

Saturday Night: Rain before 1am, then snow. Some thunder is also possible. Low around 33. Breezy, with a north northwest wind between 17 and 20 mph, with gusts as high as 33 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible.

This could get ugly. BTW, did I mention I have this sick aunt that needs me to come over and help .....................................

Rain, snow, wind, cold. All we're missing is some lightning.

I don't know...I see a replay of Rend last year coming on.

Good luck you guys. And be careful. This kind of weather is not the kind to be careless in.

Or maybe the "Discretion is the better part of Valor, do this another day shoot".;)

RE: Brass carp fun shoot rollcall
 

Actually, it's going to be worse. Lastyear Rend was just cold with no fish.

I do agree with you on the caution. I have to say, we're not looking at just tough conditions, we're looking at dangerous conditions.

We're all adults so I'm not going to tell anybody what to do, but please be extremely careful if you go out. 30 mph winds combined with snow and freezing temperatures is not boat friendly weather.
