duckydoty Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 DD'sMC works at the Chateau and she had to work today. Since we got another 3+ inches of snow last night, I decided to drive her to work this morning. First thing this morning, I loaded the waders rods and fishing gear in the car along with the grill and some grub. Got DD'sMC to work at 9 and slid on down the hill to the hatchery parking lot. Not another vehicle there. Suited up and hit the Rebar hole throwing a 3 inch white mink leeche. Caught several nice fish stripping it back in. Very fat fish. Worked my way down to the big hole catching several more. Switched over to a zebra midge under an indicator and caught 10 more fish before heading up to the pavillion for a bathroom break. While I was up there took the time to grill a new York strip steak for lunch. 6 or 8 cars had showed up by now. After lunch headed to the flats between 1 and 2 and continued fishing with the zebra midge. Picked up a few more fish then switched to a white mink sculpin. Caught 7 more fish and decided to call it a day. Beautiful day to be fishing and grilling. A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at..

ekl-stl Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I am jealous, being in St. Louis.. Sounds like a great day.. Our ponds, lakes and rivers are all froze up. Well the rivers are open but have tons of ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 The closest thing to fishing that I did today was pour weights for snagging and catfishing. Man I can't wait for the weather to break and things to thaw out so I can go wet a line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I can't wait for the weather to break and things to thaw out so I can go wet a line! I remember the days of pouring weights for spoonbill season very well. I would always do it in Jan. or Feb. with snow on the ground to help cool the molds faster. Use to pour 600 pounds of weights a year. Three guys would collect all the lead during the year. Another guy would melt down the wheel weights, clean the lead and pour it into ingots, then I would melt down all the ingots and pour the sinkers. Use to pour jigs for trout fishing during this time also. Must have had 20 differnt molds back then. A Little Rain Won't Hurt Them Fish.....They're Already Wet!! Visit my website at..
