RE: Chilly Saturday Morning Walk In The Yard with Molly

in Weekend Experiences3 years ago

Looks like it was a nice morning walk! I never have too much luck with peppers. I wish I did because we eat them pretty much every meal. I have been really happy that the temps are finally dropping down and things aren't quite so thick in the air. It has been refreshing.

Sort:  

It has been a refreshing change. I like the fall, but wish we could skip Jan, Feb, and early March. Just sayin. lol I like a little snow, then back to spring please. 😁

Yeah, I am a fan of the seasons. I think it is good that I live where I do. Just about the time you get too cold it starts warming up. Same holds true in the summer. I didn't realize you had a lake back there too! I am a bit jealous now!

I hear ya. Me too. glad to live close to the beach and relatively close to the mountains. Cold and hot. all good to me, but as I get older that could change.

Yes, it's a private lake owned by everyone who lives around it, so it's rather quiet most days. No gas motors, just electric trolling motors or canoes or kayaks that kind of thing. Keeps everything clean too. The one thing I hate.. I could seriously hurt the person who put carp in there. Those things are nasty good for nothing fish. And they are HUGE beastly things.

Ah, that sucks about the carp. We have been having some issues with Asian carp near where I live. What kind of fish are in there? I saw you mentioned bass. Any perch or panfish? I bought my license but didn't get out fishing at all this summer.

Perch, crappy, bluegills, small and large mouth bass and the carp. My neighbor a few houses down showed me a photo of what he said was a rainbow trout that he caught a while back. Looked almost like a lake trout, but did have the stripe down the middle like a rainbow. Water is about 200+ feet in a couple of areas, so it's possible. The bald eagles have a hay day back there. We see them from time to time hunting. Watch out Molly! no kidding either. We have to watch her and them. lol.

Oh wow! That is really awesome. That is my dream to live on a lake like that someday. I'd be fishing non stop. Even in the winter on the ice!

I used to go out and fish a bunch, then got tied up with a ton of other stuff. Sold my Old Towne canoe just a year or so ago. A nice family bought it and they were going to go camping with it. It was an awesome canoe that I had for many many years. Hated to see it go, but didn't like that it was just hanging in the garage collecting dust. It deserved to be used and appreciated by a family like that.

Your more than welcome to come down and fish. My neighbor has a nice bass boat if I ever get the hankering to fish and drink beers. 😁
