jdmidwest Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Okay, first year for the new daylight saving law put into effect by the wonderful government that has to regulate every aspect of our lives. I awake as usual this week at 5:45 am and its pitch black dark. Excitement kicks in, I must be going fishing or hunting if alarm goes off before some sort of daylight. Then depression sets in, its Tuesday and senses realize "Its a workday". Come home and look outside, its 7:30 and its still daylight. Man, I could be doing something in the yard or the garden. Then depression sets in, its the second week of March and nothings growing except for mud. I can't even plant taters till St. Pattys. What to do, its a shame to waste daylight indoors when the sun is shining. What is the reasoning for this time change anyway? Last fall it prolonged the summer activities for a little while longer, but the early spring sucks. Any thoughts......

Trav Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Anytime I can get more daylight in the evenings, I will take it. I think we should have this time configurement year round and then give us all an extra hour of evening daylight in the winter. "May success follow your every cast." - Trav P. Johnson
Kayser Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I used my extra hour of evening daylight to catch 7 nice crappie and a couple bass on the flyrod tonight. I only kept six of the crappie for dinner one night this week. Rob WARNING!! Comments to be interpreted at own risk. Time spent fishing is never wasted.
jdmidwest Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 Local streams are up and muddy. Not much around for local ponds that I can do any good at in just an hour. It just messes up the Acacian Cycle.. "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S. Thompson
Quillback Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I like the long evening, I alos wish we would just stay on this time year round.
trout fanatic Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I'm luvin this. Time to break out the fly gear...woo-hoo
snagged in outlet 3 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I love it. I'd go for it year round also. It's hard to do much when it's dark. I'll take the extra time in the evenings every time. Bug sprayed the house last night after fishing in the afternoon. Probably clean out the garage one evening next week. If I'm not playing golf or fishing. SIO3
