Man, that was a tough one. Not tough to decide, but it's 85 here today and my hand was so sweaty it kept slipping off the mouse. As soon as the water warms up to around 76 we can head out with our shorties.
pretty terrible today in TX. 73 @7am and high today of forecasted at 85 degrees. terrible cold front rolling in this weekend thou, highs in low 70's

i prefer a heater top in the high 60s, why be uncomfortable if you dont have to? would be in the water but im tyumen russia still, half way done though, when i get home in 1.5 weeks it will be on!Quote:

I've never actually worn my wetsuit other than to try it on. I'll go out as early as anyone will go with me around here. Last year the water was 62 and air 77 when I started in Feb. This year, no takers so far. We have had warm weekdays and cold rainy weekends so far. Looks like more of the same this week.

No hurricanes, no floods, no earthquakes but we do have wind on occasion. Just bring money because the cost of homes is high because we never have a recession. Oh yea, I live further north than Minneapolis. Another thing..we have leaking nuclear waste tanks (they have been leaking for decades but don't tell the news people).
^^ That's how we warm up the water. Shhh, oh, I wasn't supposed to.... Nevermind.
This is when I know it's officially Summer!!!!!

I've got a cool video, but can't get it to upload!
Please tell me that's not like just outside your house or property... I can deal with a lot of nasty things in this world, but snakes... You'll find me running in the opposite direction screaming like a little girl.
Ran into this one today while at work! I used to scream and run in the opposite direction until one night at work I had to kill one before he struck at me (had no other choice due to the situation I was in)! Man Vs Wild style with a machete, I was shaking like a leaf!!! I got it mounted and left the fear of snakes behind ever since
Here he is! 4.5 ft with 13 rattlers!

You carry a machete at work? Geesh - tough neighborhood. :p
that would sooo not be in my house. dead or stuffed..
Border town, I would carry a machete at the very least!
man the last rattle snake we killed was down at white river lake in spur, tx and was only likr 12" long. he almost got my grandad though, he didnt see him while he was digging in a 5 gallon bucket for some wood blocks (snake was in the bucket)
Did you poke it?! :lol:Quote:
