Back at it!

I hope every ones winter season is flying by faster than mine has, spring can't get here soon enough! I was doing just fine dealing with the cold weather up until about a month ago; now it's really getting to me.

Hunting season has come and gone and I'm becoming tired of starring down through a hole in the ice. Luckily for the Iowa Bass Team and I, we will be heading 9 hours south in two weeks to fish the first FLW College Fishing event for the central division on Bull Shoals Lake. It has been an unusually cold winter for the southern states this year so hopefully it will warm up a tad bit by the time we get there.

Whether the fishing is good or not, it will at least scratch the itch a little bit until the ice thaws here in Iowa. Recent Bull Shoals local events have been kicking out some decent fish, so hopefully we can find enough to do well.

I'll also be towing my boat down to the event. On the way back to Iowa after the tournament, Tyler and I are going to prefish for the 2nd FLW College Fishing tournament from the central division on Lake of the Ozarks. It should make for a fun little trip to start off the year!

The Iowa Bass Team has scheduled a busy spring semester in terms of club, regional, and national events. I will do my best to try and give updates on how things are progressing with the bass team throughout my last semester here at the University of Iowa. The last four years have flown by, but I plan to make the best of it while it still lasts!
