GREENTRITON Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Being old and tired, I went for one last trip of year. Drop the F-S into Aunts creek ramp last Thur one last time. Water temp 53 degree air temp 20 Degree. I had major problems with Ice getting in my rods guides, ended up back lashed my bait caster with the bait not moving more then one foot. I did the dunk the rods in water trick worked but got tired of it. Table Rock smoked me again no fish. My fall fishing was bad this year but I did have a good spring. Time to winter rize the Yamaha wax the boat and put up until Spring. I be by the fire all winter. March 1 2015 I be back on the water...GOOD FISHING...
fishingaddiction Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Shouldn't put the boat up yet, fishing is just getting good. Sorry you didn't catch any, but I have had the ice in the guides deal many times and it's not much fun. With an air temp of 20 degrees being home in front of a fire sounds really good. Born to Fish. Forced to Work.
merc1997 Bo Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 a little trick to deal with ice, is to spray both line on the spool and the rod guides with spray silicone. have to repeat a time or two during the day, but will eliminate the icing issue. bo
Ham Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 Between work, family and the weather my trips for the rest of the calander year will be limited. I hope to trout fish a half dozen times and "warm water" fish another 3 or 4 days. I'll let the Bass Cat slumber for a month or so starting mid Janurary. I HOPE the water temp will stay > 40 degrees that long. If I was retired, I'd pick my days to be sure, but I would try to fish 3-4 days a week. These are VERY good days to fish.

Pepe Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 Sitting by the fire can be dangerous to the wallet. Reading about all those "must have super lures" and revolutionary products costs me more than running the boat, LOL

As a matter of fact I just looked at some Flitterbaits - Google it if you dare.
