Full moon special

Walleye fishing isn't something that often equates itself with a full moon or high moon phase. Actually, I take that back – it's something that actually does, simply not in a really good way. When fishing through the ice, paying attention to moon phases is a must. And while this week's waxing gibbous wasn't great for  fishing, it was a scenic night on the water. Noticing the stream lining jets going across the sky, backset by a number of different dots of burning gas was the end to the evening. It started with some warm west winds, good conversation with some fishermen from out of town, a sunset, cold PBR and one dandy walleye that sits inside a bowl of water in my fridge.
