Happy for March


The thermometer says 28 and tomorrow morning is supposed to be colder. Nevertheless, the calendar days March, and that tells me that the fish will be moving shallower overall and getting more active very soon. The walleyes also ought to be running up rivers from mountain lakes soon (if they aren't already) and the white bass won't be far behind. March also tells me that one of my favorite trips each spring (to Gaston's Resort on the White River in Arkansas) is coming up very soon, and that a venture to the Louisiana coast for specks and redfish is only a few weeks away. I may have to stay inside to write fish stories this week, given the travel that's just around the bend. But maybe Nathaniel and I will slip out for a couple of hours to try to wrangle a bass or two from a local pond! We'll see. No matter what, I'm happy that March has arrived.
