Starting off the year muggin'

[Chrisper4694]

Probably the slowest fishing start to a year i've ever had mostly due to the weather. Had a decent end to the day tog fishing last week after catching nothing all morning (all's well that ends well though, limit on the last drops i'll def take it!)

Then, just took the first freshwater trip of the year because I believe trout fishing prevents ice formation (i'll post the scientific links behind it later). Headed out with scoward on the infamous mugger, but we just couldn't find much of anything to cooperate and not enough boats around catching for us to mug!

About as enjoyable of a day we could've had with the terrible bite if you don't count almost dying from the waves that started blasting us when the wind kicked up hahaha. Good times BSing and even managed an average sized smallie and a dink perch to avoid the skunk.

PS, that may or may not be my wife's pink and purple gym bag that i borrowed as a tackle bag...it's called being innovative!
