Mike Pike Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 Well, the ice has been off the harbour for a few weeks now and, although guys have been carping throughout winter( ice permitting ), this was my first time out this year. A brisk SW wind made it feel colder than -1c but once the sun came up, it warmed me up, and my spirits, considerably. One of the best things about getting to the water early in the morning is the active wildlife that you get to see, even at this urban locale. The morning's creature count included diver ducks, mergansers and this industrious beaver. . Unfortunately, after sending out a method ball with a couple of kernels of corn on a hair, I had zero takers. The morning only produced several single 'bleeps' on the alarm that had me hopeful, if nothing else. Absolutely wonderful morning to be out, though. Staying warm by keeping the biting wind at my back and the sun on my face was a great way to spend the day at this time of year. Plus, I got a chance to bait up the swim for my next visit, at the least. Happy Easter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
