I agree Boogieman!....I'm seeing images of those bull gills on the end of my flyrod in my dreams!....It's not to far off!....Spring and open water can't get here soon enough!
I can see their house! Just doing my periodic review of Johns beauties, gettin' myself all psyched up. Thanks John!
Boogieman
Warm weather is just around the corner....well....wishful thinking anyways....lol!....Can hardly wait to get that canoe in the spring waters once again...."Anticipation".......
I'm glad I'm from Minn"E" sota (land of 10,000 swamps and 2 pound mosquitos)....and I gotta admit....some pretty decent bluegill fishing here.....not "thee" best mind you....but pretty good!...lol!.....Being 4th on the list is better than Alaska....…
nice and big. cool
What is this "warm" you speak of?
That reminds me of warm weather.
That is about as perfect as a fish can get. Wow.
