 The Squamscott River is ice free.It is ice out. The hooded mergansers are fishing for smelts in open water. The water coming over the dam ranks about a five out of ten in flow.
The small patch of dirt we call our front yard is showing a green hue of fresh growing grass. My favorite pastime turkey hunting is right around the corner. Bugs and Bass 2011 won't be far behind. I will be looking to cure a nasty disease I came down this winter called "overweightitis".

Re: The Squamscott River is ice free. I am there with you. Took a walk in the mountains this morning and it did my soul good. Creeks were a bit high due to the recent rain but it was much needed so fishing can wait just a bit. Did see a couple desperate trout fisherman on Wolf Creek though.

Re: The Squamscott River is ice free. Hi Caddis,
70 degrees in coastal NH yesterday. 39 degrees right now. Suppose to be in the twenties tonight. This has been a normal winter to spring transition so far where we live. Last year the buds had already popped on the low lining bushes. It made for a jungle during turkey season. I hope the ticks took a beating this winter. They were very bad last spring. Does VA have ticks? _________________ Keeper of the Mountain Province Division Tenth Legion Your eye in the Northeast sky Coalman's Online Blog http://coalmansblog.com |

Re: The Squamscott River is ice free. Virginia has too many ticks!
 The deer ticks are getting worse every year it seems._________________ "What gets us jangly is the suddenness of everything.
