Hit tapps up to do some fishing with the kid. Got to the county park and there were three and four foot waves slamming the launch. So we went to allan york to launch. Finally got on the water about 8:45 and ran down to the north end of the lake. Ended up having 5 bites total caught 2. They were 15 to 18 foot deep and the bite was pretty solid. They were both about 1.5 pounds but I have to post them, these were my first two smallies caught out of tapps. The boy had two or three bites but missed them so he got to take a picture with dads fish. Fish were released like always and the water temp was 48.2 when we left it was 50 when we got there. Windy, snowing and raining.

I hope they don't either. But if it is as windy as it was today it is going to be tough. There was a couple of times I went through waves rather than over them.

No it isn't. But I launched at 8:45 and came off the water at 12:00 and did not have to pay. But our friend's in there boat came off the water a hour later and they had to pay to get there boat out. But the county park was still free you just could'nt launch there with the wind.

I could only challenge it for so long. The boy finally had enough but I was proud of him he toughed it out for longer than I thought he would.
