Another wonderful week of weather in Deer Park and the forecast is for much the same for the next 7 days. With the weather being so nice as most of you probably know it is difficult to keep the two of us inside. So we thought we'd pass along a couple of pictures to show you what we do with our free time this time of the year.
I don't hesitate to head out on the ice. I am usually not the type to spend much time in a shack, though. I prefer to sit on my snowmobile and be able to see and hear what is going on around me and the lake. On this particular night two Pileated Woodpeckers were being very vocal, talking with one another. We also had a coyote come out and see what was going on for a couple of minutes. With the weather being so nice, grabbing a buddy and going fishing is good stuff.
I set two rods, got my Vexilar (fish finder) right next to me, got to have an auger for drilling holes, minnows (in a coffee can) and a cold pop and I am ready. All easily transportable via my snowmobile. This trip we caught six pike and released five of them in addition to a bunch of 5-7 inch Perch.
Plus, on this particular day we had company come out and join us. It's not often the lake conditions allow for two wheeled traffic but as you can see Monica made the best of it. And Zeta is always happy to tag along.
All is well in the north country. Get outside and enjoy the day.
