fishing user avatarcrankcaster100 reply : 

Sitting on my patio in 44 degrees smoking a fine cigar and I see grass

I almost forgot what it looks like

Maybe I'll get out Sunday afternoon for the first time of the year

Look out bass


fishing user avatarlmbfisherman reply : 

Nice, it was warm for us too..great that you can see grass.  I still have a ways to go, but for the first in a long time there are dry spots on my driveway.  (No snow or ice or water)...


fishing user avatarcrankcaster100 reply : 

Waters a good thing (melted snow )

Very true!  I can't wait for the thaw, as soon as it gets warm enough I'm heading to the river.  Course I'll be banking it in the beginning as I'm sure the river will be pretty rough when the thaw happens. 


fishing user avatarfishguy613 reply : 

lucky bugger, weve still have 3 feet of ice up here :(


fishing user avatarflyingmonkie reply : 

Have my spring "guys trip" lined up two weeks from today.  I'm getting pumped.  I LOVE SPRING!

 

Although, as i get older and have kids, all the d**n tornadoes are making me like Fall more and more.  :)


fishing user avatargulfcaptain reply : 

I'm glad I live where I can fish 12 months of the year although when I lived in Oklahoma I always managed to find a way to fish even when it was 3 below one morning.  I don't do cold very well now, and if it ever snowed in S. California I wouldn't leave my house.  People out here have a hard enough time driving in the rain. 


fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

65 degrees here today after single digit highs last week. Our ice will be gone by the end of this week  :respect-059:


fishing user avatarwhitwolf reply : 

Spring........ Snow and Ice yesterday morning and a high of 67 today. I have no concrete idea's about what my fishing afternoon will hold other then It's going to be nice to be on the water! 


fishing user avatarSam reply : 

Heat wave down here in Richmond, Virginia.

 

Of course, the water temps are still in the 40's but the air temps are nice.

 

Come on Dogwoods!!!!


fishing user avatarColdSVT reply :

Supposed to hit 64 down here on the Peninsula today. Planning (well, hoping) to get out on the yak at some point today.


fishing user avatarA-Jay reply : 

Warmed up here a bit as well.  Of course "warm" is a relative term. 

 

Fishing is still a long way off but add this to the time change and there may actually be a spring this year.

fishing user avatarJay Ell Gee reply : 

The weather is beautiful down here as well. It looks like a small fart of a front is coming in Wednesday evening, but it's small compared to most this winter.

The only thing I worry about is a repeat in south Louisiana from 2011. When all this "snow" you poor saps have thaws, the mighty Mississippi brings it south and floods all of our prime bayous, rivers, and even most southern tidal systems connected to it. In 2011, most of those areas were not fish able until the end of July. This year is predicted to be much worse. :(

Anyone have a spare room and the back of their boat available? Haha.

Thank goodness for redfish! Oh, and my work pond that I fish before/on lunch/after work. Largest bass caught from it so far was over 9 lbs.


fishing user avatarreb67 reply : 

Weather is going to great this week I think it has finally as turned but it is VA. weather changes from day to day

 

We live about 20 minutes from where we have our camper on the lake and my wife and I are ready to start our spring, summer and fall routine which is living in the camper and fishing every weekend and evening when we can and only going to the house to wash clothes and cut grass.

 

We are so ready


fishing user avatarMarksHooked reply : 

It's slowly warming up here as well! Yesterday was warm, I took a quick trip down to a pier on Lake Ontario, lots of broken ice but I did find a spot to make a few casts and try out my new rod and reel.  Didn't catch anything, bass season is a long ways away here, but it was nice to get out! Going to try again this afternoon, maybe play with some jerkbaits and new drop shot plastics! 


fishing user avatar*Hootie reply : 

I saw a fly today. First one since last October. Then seen a moth on my front door this morning. Spring is coming for sure.

fishing user avatarBassnChris reply : 

Attended a high school exhibition baseball game last night.......against my will a little. Got pretty chilly after the sun went down..........but you know when you start watching baseball that fishing is very close at hand.


fishing user avatarlmbfisherman reply : 

So after above freezing temperatures the last few days (birds chirping, sunny days), we are expecting snow Wednesday and -12 C.....Oh mother nature you so tease me so.


fishing user avatardaiwaguy reply : 

80 In Mid Missouri today, Snow in the forcast tomorrow with a high of 36.


fishing user avataronefinalcast reply : 

I don't always get excited about fishing in early March...but when I do, it's because yesterday was 51 and the extended forecast looks warm!

 

 

...of course by warm I mean high 30's to low 40s, which feels like 60 in my mind after the winter we just endured!


fishing user avatarChance_Taker4 reply : 

if I only remembered what grass looked like. It was in the upper 40s, lower 50s the last three days. The snow started to melt but now we are getting 8" of snow and 1" of ice tonight into Thursday. Spring will never hit Ohio.


fishing user avatarblongfishing reply : 

60's on Lake Hartwell. It's great to live where I do!!!


fishing user avatarmnbassman23 reply : 

3 straight days above 40 in MN and the extended forecast looks promising. Knock on wood, but spring might be coming. 


fishing user avatarFelix77 reply : 

Today we broke 50 degrees ... and then I went to the weather channel and saw Thursday will be back down to 18 degrees and snowing.  

 

Will this winter ever end?   :cry4:

Today was the nicest day this year by far. But like you said the extended forecast is not looking good. The temperature goes up and down and up and down. The bad part is the nights are still in the teens and 20's.  I think we might have been fishing by this time last year...


fishing user avatarToeshots reply : 

Spring WAS in the air up here near Chicago. It was 55 yesterday and 50 today.

Naturally, we will be getting 5-10 inches of snow tonight and it will be back down to the 20's tomorrow.
