April Fools!

April first is not only a traditional day of pranks. It is an official one here in Maine, the first day of our open water fishing season. The joke is that there is precious little open water to fish in. Not to mention that the air temperatures are a little on the chilly side, it is cloudy and for a while this morning we had a little light snow. What open water there is open at the moment is running high and cold.

I am sure that the weather will improve with time but for today open water fishing is a bit of an April fool’s joke. Hope that you were able to get out were not fooled.
