Greetings and welcome!

I think that I finally got the date right.. Thanks Mike.

Just a quick update with a few things..

Item one, we have been having some cold nights. Last night we got down to 30, the night before was 33. That is according to Athelstane Weather.

When I woke up this morning the far back field by the creek and the pond basin looked frosted up. I must have caught the last moments of it, by the time I rubbed my eyes and headed for a camera it was gone. I am going to guess that the low areas like that where the cold air settles went into the upper 20s last night.

The big color show still hasn’t really started, but I am expecting it any time. There is some general dulling of the leaves and yellowing as they die back, but the real fall colors aren’t here yet. I am wondering if the cold will set them off.

The last item is a picture of a sturgeon that Slug sent in. The Menominee River is to my knowledge the only place that you can hook and line fish them in WI and the season is open.

This is a63″ 55# female caught downstream of Bear Point by Paul Schmidt.

As always, Bear Point Yacht Club is the HQ for fishing that stretch of the Menominee River.

That’s news for today. Have a good week and thank you for visiting!
