I believe my fishing is done for 2012 but there might be a couple more chances for me to get out and fish before we get snow.  This year has been rough the biggest Cat I caught was almost 5 pounds but here is the report.

Though I tried many different baits or concoctions I had some success an posted those in my bait recipes page.
I also tried to follow best times to fish but however a lot of my times were off but at least I tried.
I also have been upgraded in technology and now have an IPhone4 and have gotten a lot of good apps for when I go out to use but the one thing I came across and will try next year and that is watching the barometric pressure simply in one of the apps I have it showed that if pressure is rising poor fishing steady = good fishing and falling = excellent fishing something I will look into for next year and so far I tried it once when I went out Nov. 10th the pressure was rising and I only had a couple of bites.
A lot of anglers may already know this but I am still learning and trying to prefect my fishing if this fails I will just go with what my wife say "The fish will bite when they are hungry".   
See you next season till then tight lines for those who fish the winter.
