Monday the 13th...That's good luck.

More Picastory Anticipation!

Amazing when you have a big body of water....there are no rocks visible to seek the finny sporters.  At least spots that are apparent.  But, reading the water is a whole different thing.

Where do you go to fish....there's so much to cover.



A couple of years ago, I tried to document where we caught fish on our annual trek to the Big Lake in New Hampshire.  I took an ariel image from the Internet, took our trip logs over 42 years, and plotted where the fish were mostly caught. Then because we trolled for land lock salmon, I made a track(white line) showing where we were most successful.  This is a cool way to figure out where to fish....all it takes is 42 years.


This is only a small part of Lake Winnepasaukee, and those large bodies of land on the left are islands.  The small island is a classic.  Lots of choices and if you look closely I have marked the starting point as "House" on the right middle.


One of the easiest decisions is when to go fishing and when to play cards.  This looks like a "Deal" day!  When the wind blows like this out of the Northeast, Suicide is not an option.


But when this is the "Anticipation"!


And this the "Satisfaction"!

Awwwwwww...let's go fishin!
