.... the difference between yesterday 7:30 AM and this morning - 34 vs 53. Wind was wafting out of the south for about ten minutes. Then, we got gusts swinging the boat sideways. Within 30 minutes ,we were dodging 25 KPH.
However. I decided to leave the main engine off and trolled up river to Harvey's. The first five minutes provided a walleye and a smbass that jumped and threw the hook. The walleye is cleaned and frozen. Later, an hour later, a perch co-operated and he's cleaned and iced. Sporadic reward. You have to take 'em when you can.
To-day, guys were moving looking for fish and hiding from the wind. moving boats pretty much means poor fishing. Everyone races to their fav spot. Not moi, fish close to home and then see.
Beauty day now, brisk wind here in QMH, but blue sky w/ wispy clouds. Lovely, September day.
In the news or non news: Our Rob Ford in Chicago, hob-nobs w/ Chicagoans on the street.
" Have you been to Toronto ? "
" No but we've been across the border from Detroit to that Canadian city "
" Oh Winnipeg, you mean ? "
Right Rob, Winnipeg. Our mayor. Must be tough to be glib and thinking all the time.
