Thursday, March 4, 2010

As of a couple days ago, there was still ice in the boat wells at Pier Park--and ice shanties--and ice fisherman.

Lowell said...: Why doesn't that look like fun to me? Hmmm...maybe 'cause I don't much care for cold weather or snow?

Great portrait of a fisherman's concentration, though.; March 4, 2010 at 8:03 PM

Andree said...: I've never gotten this close to these guys. A bit nervous to do so! You really should join skywatch friday, you know.; March 5, 2010 at 10:47 PM
Mary Stebbins Taitt said...: I do do skywatch Friday sometimes, if I remember.

I LOVE fresh fish! MMM.

Some ice fisherman are friendly, others less so--I have a LONG lens!; March 6, 2010 at 10:19 AM
