Itching to do that sometime. A friend keeps a boat up by Alabaster but our schedules don't mesh too well and he's not as crazy as me when it comes to fishing.Lake St. Clair here in south east Michigan has one of if not the best small mouth bass fisheries in the world. I don't even try for them and catch them all the time. And they get really big in the open water.

Nice ¨fishies¨ Cody! The last shot is very nice, love it.
Glad your Jeep didn't take a cold bath lol. What would jackknifing mean, by the way?
Regarding the cold, seeing snow in the boat- do you, or anyone else for that matter, use any on-board heaters to stay warm? Extra shots of liquor (guess that goes hand in hand with these fun trips )? Or is it just good gear? Any clothes are good if you are moving, such as hiking but moving doesn't fit the description here.
I see! I have been into alpaca and other wool sort socks and it feels like I have been stupid for the most part of my life LOL. They made a difference. I have some Darn Toughs, warm as hell. Too warm, in fact, if I am moving, otherwise they're fine. The Altera alpaca socks I got in MT are lighter, but war too, they're for moving, less for sitting. I wish I can get my hands on some Russian Valenki felted wool boots, that would be the best out of both worlds hahhaha! Lastly, I've been thinking about buying the Sealskinz waterproof merino socks, not really a bigger price tag, 20ish dollars.
Unless...the electrically heated soles
A couple people have asked about some pics before so here's some.
I hope to share some fish pics and also some neat things I happen across here in Michigan. Lots of cool stuff and logging era remnants if you know what you're looking for. Some are obvious some are not!
I hope to keep adding photos to this for you all to enjoy!

Are they worth the buck? Since there will be a lot of movie extra jobs soon I will apply to, and the winter postpones each year by at least a week, I am thinking about buying those. Standing a long time is the majority schedule between the shots Even in my Corcoran jumpboots, it gets cold!
Jackknifed, got it. Happened to me in camp this summer. Got stuck in mud, tried to reverse with couple big boys rocking the E350 back and forth, and when it jumped, the trailer got within a few inches of the chromed bumper, jackknifed. Then we realized it would be good to detach it haha!
This short guy (prolly size of @Tony from what I've heard) showed up this weekend with the biggest ladder I've ever seen....
Just got the results of the pics today. I'm the one in the middle....
