Default March 15th will be a sad, sad day....
I think I can already feel the depression setting in...

But I am going to cram as much ice time as I can into these two next weeks!

I looked at the regs (not too closely) and it seems everything south of Calgary shuts down on the 15th. Didn't some of the southern reservoirs use to close on the 31st or is my memory not what it used to be?

What were we talking about again?

Default So Sorry....
Sorry buddy but you must be getting old like the rest of us. Saying that Dale and I have done some old fart research the last year or so and have come up with a few places in the south that don't close and actually have catchable fish in them. We did need to do a little work but they are out there. We even found an Rv park last year on our reconaissance mission that we never heard of before as well as the small lake that it is at that we never heard of until we dug a little. We will be doing some pre season fishing this year once the ice is off and ready for open water.

Come on lil buddy you get to go fishing with me! Surely that's enough to cheer you up. Okay maybe not but at least it will be entertaining...and most likely traumatizing. I apologize in advance for that part.

Going fishing with a girl as good looking as your self (tiny little picture) should certainly be plenty to cheer a guy up. So cheer up bud lol
