So far, Ice fishing has been a bust. I went to Beulah last week and fished Crystal with hardly any success. Then off to Arcadia twice, with even less success. I did catch fish, but it was hardly fast and furious and the fish were all 6 inches and under. I have an 8 inch keeper rule, which keeps perch big enough to clean. John D and I will try Crystal Lk at Lobb rd today. Its supposed to be sunny with light winds, high of 30, so hopefully this is the day we catch some keepers!!! Smelt would be ok too. Meantime here's a link I use that might interest you. http://bucsfishingreport.com

A beautiful Saturday here in Fla---no wind, no clouds and 75 degrees. Really an ideal day for whatever. The fishing was less than outstanding this am, even though we got to the dock plenty early. It was a full moon last night, so that seems to kill the fishing for a couple of days. We'll try again this evening just for something to do. Friends Ed and Duffi stopped by for a visit and it was pleasant to sit on the dock and watch the birds and boats go by. No cows today. We wandered home and then walked into Lorida as I needed to mail a postcard, and then we stopped at the produce stand and got some fresh peppers, cukes and tomatoes. I got the most beautiful strawberries yesterday and they are almost gone. The gal gets fruits and veggies in daily from Plant City, which might supply your grocery store too. I know when we shopped at the flea market in Big Pine in the Keys, the vendors were mostly from Plant City. John wanted me to take a few pix of our digs and post them so you all could see where we live. He just loves this place. I like it, but I don''t love it like he does. LOL If you click on the pix, you will get a larger view and then just click the back arrow. If you click on the picture that shows the back of our house, you can barely see the fence. That's how close the pasture is and often at night we can hear the cows crashing around back there in the undergrowth. Bizarre!!!

Tuesday

More fishing today!!! John went with Ed in the boat, so I dropped him off at 6:30 and then went over to the park. Pretty dark at that time of the morning but there are a couple of lights, and a good one at the end where I was fishing. I had some luck and caught 4 nice specks---the biggest was a tad over 12 inches. I did catch one lone bluegill and a couple of small bass about 10 inches. Today when John went to clean the fish there were *two* storks. Geez!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also had another first today. I fished with the cows. Really!!! I heard a great deal of splashing around, looked over my shoulder and there they were. They just waded right in and started eating. Maybe lily pads are nutritious are at least tasty. I also took pictures of all the boats that were near. Everyone fishes right *in* the pads as that's where the specks live. John just got back from cleaning the fish an we have enough for dinner. AGAIN!!! I might need a McDonald's fix by the end of the week. So with no further chatter, here are the pix of the day.
