Scratching my head, wondering where this spring went???

[RICHYD4U]

I feel your pain brothers. I had a kentucky lake trip planned twice this spring, and both times had to cancel because of weather! *****! I also went for the whites this spring (one time) and we never really locked in on them like springs past. We still did catch around 30, but we had to work for em. Pond fishing looks like the way to go right now with all the lakes up and muddy. Maybe that is what I should do this next week. Who knows. All I know is that I need to get out and wet a line ASAP! Take it easy.

Man, like you I told myself the same thing so I have been going regardless of rain, wind, clouds, sun, work, muddy water, time or anyother excuse I can use this Spring and have had some great catches!
It's a tough hobby at times but someone has to do it. Good luck to ya...

I am off four days a week and still only got to go once a week this spring if that. I got a new boat this year and have not had the time to enjoy it. I have a 9 month old girl that LOVES her daddy time and the weather has been horrible when I could go. I have only been able to hit Stoner twice this year and I have been to Herrington three times during frontal days (tough) and Wilgreen twice. I am hoping to get to do alot more fishing this summer when I can sneak away at night.

I fish in about anything if I'm there when it hits and sometimes the bite is great in bad weather. For me though, I won't drive 280 miles to Barkley for the weekend if I know it is going to be 44 with 15mph winds. On the other hand, if one waits for perfect weather to fish in this part of the country you can miss the entire spring.

I'm certainly glad I dropped my Barkley trip in April and went far south. I was feeling bad about missing the pre-spawn run when I departed for Florida but watching the weather I could see it was really raw weather here while I boated 225 bass in a week down south with a post spawn girl that was 9.1! Though for sure it was my first 10lber but no luck

I got in a very nice trip to Barkley in late March and had a great time. Seems like late March was better then most of April weather wise this year.

I'm ready for the Ohio to drop so I can start chasing them in the creeks. Maybe a 10 day stretch of dry weather will help.

Tight lines.

With the exeption of the farm pond...and one foul weather trip to Dale (and I do mean FOUL WEATHER!), I too have almost missed out on spring....my pathetic excuse is due to work, work, and then I had to work some more, 60 hour weeks, etc...but this work load of mine should slow down considerably after May 12th, at least I am hoping so anyway. The weather does not keep me from going unless it's just stupid crazy bad weather...but when the boss man calls ya gotta answer to him. Hang in there RichyD...Spring ain't over until June 21st buddy!
