I’ll go out anytime the weather is half decent and I have the time. Right now I’m saving for the annual outboard service. Can’t wait for the warranty period to be out and I’ll be saving money by DIY. More $$ for gear.

Boat and trailer ready to hit the water.

Need to service reels, make up a few more rigs and make a heap of sinkers.

Might go for a fish towards the end of this month if there is a nice day.
