Longing for Long Point
Here I am now in this 4th. day of winter and I'm pretty sure I have cabin fever. Once again the temperature is expected to drop way down over this long winter night. The only fishing I can look forward to is through a 6" diameter hole drilled through the ice after we drag a small shed out on the lake to hold the heat in from a small kerosene heater. I heard the fish they throw back in Sebastian where Long Point is, wouldn't even fit through a 6" hole.....! I looked at the weather channel at noon and they said it was 72 degrees at Long Point and had shot of a young lady in one of them two piece bathing suits. Here I am dressed in long underwear, a flannel shirt, coveralls, a fleece jacket and gloves, huddled next to the fireplace, inside my house, freezin' and they show me this on TV. I come real close the git'in the model 12 out and git'in even with that TV. May can't get here soon enough to suit me!
I hope GFS or Commander Pooh Bah don't issue any confirming weather reports.
