The other day, we went to Rockland to run some errands. The recent weather had been warm, wet, and windy, but I was not prepared to see Grassy Pond in Hope almost completely free of ice. I had to look multiple times to confirm that I was indeed seeing open water, and it is a fact.
The forecast this morning called for scattered showers with the chance of a thundershower. I have had today’s reservation for some time and the 
day could not be changed. So off we went!
Since the day in this picture was taken back in 2008 I have known that there are pike in the Saint George watershed. Since they are most likely here to stay and might grow to significant size I have been 
thinking that they might be something that my clients would be interested in fishing for.
