Fishing report? No..Not really..but I can give you my 2 cents worth of report on...
... all this DAMN WIND!!
The winter of 2012 will surely be known in our area as The Year of the Wind.
On the Mulege fishing scene we are frustrated fishermen...not a chance with all those backbreaking whitecaps out there every day...day after day..with
nothing to do but play poker ...chase blowing skirts...dream of big ones..(yah, fish!)
Argggh!!
Is it windy where you are at, too? Please tell us this is not just OUR curse?

We've had a mild winter in regards to snow, but the winds have been incessant. We had our dogs out for their daily exercise the other day and after
walking for about ten minutes my wife stopped abruptly and asked, "Did you hear that?"
"What?" I replied. "I don't hear anything."
"That's just it," she said. "There's no wind. It's all quiet. I can hear Fred or Jenner banging on some machinery." Fred and Jenner would have been
over a mile away at Fred's equipment shed.
And that stillness in the atmosphere was well worth noting.
My anemometer a couple of weeks ago hit 58mph and the evening news that day said a "wind instrument" on top of Soldier Mtn (about 40 mi distant)
topped 100mph.
For what it's worth, P, a flock of geese flew overhead this a.m. heading NE.

How windy is it?
"It's sooo windy, my dog has to back up to bark!"
"It's too windy to haul rocks!"
A WINDY ACCIDENT:
Two men were riding a motorcycle on a windy winter day. When it became too windy for the passenger, he put his jacket on backwards to keep the wind
from blowing it open. A few miles down the road, the motorcycle hit a tree, killing the driver instantly and stunning the passenger.
Later, when a detective visited the scene, he asked a policeman standing nearby what happened. "Well," the officer replied, "one of them was dead when
I got here, and by the time I got the other one's head straightened around, he was dead, too."

Just got back from fishing.
