[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 449914, member: 330"] IME that's always. Then there's those rare dark days in May/early June when the ambient temp is 68/75ish; it rains sporadically in big, warm lazy drops: Lightning is not an issue...cherish these rare days. Back in '08/09 I dropped the family off at the airport at 5am on a Monday. I noticed the soft "feathery" feel of the slight breeze and smelled that "stone" scent. I went up to the Darling Dam. The water was cut off yet it was still near "full pool" with beautiful emerald clarity. Within an hour I caught a 3lb walleye on a 3/8oz spinner bait and two "double digit" pike on a Super ShadRap twitched on top. As common with ShadRap lips; it became a glide bait after a bump on the rocks. I got pissed and realized I was hungry. I went back south to Hardee's (wishing they had a Mushroom/Swiss Burger in Minot). Got back to the house; cracked a beer; checked the weather and realized the whole of ND was in the same weather pattern: I gathered my shit, put ice in the cooler from the 'fridge and went down the East Bank. There was one guy on the "point". The weather hadn't changed. It was awesome: I caught my limit in a 1/2hr: The guy on the point was happy for me. FWIW: I KNOW what happens on the point...hue hue hue: That is all: [ATTACH type="full" alt="1744859815992.png"]75246[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="1744859955212.png"]75247[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="1744860177205.png"]75248[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
