The other day, we went to Rockland to run some errands. The recent weather had been warm, wet, and windy, but I was not prepared to see Grassy Pond in Hope almost completely free of ice. I had to look multiple times to confirm that I was indeed seeing open water, and it is a fact. Round Pond in Union also shows a significant amount of open water where the river current flows, and Seven Tree Pond is free of ice enough to launch a boat.

Almost feels like spring here today! Windy, foggy with temperatures around 50 degrees. The end of winter is in sight, but spring has not arrived to stay. To prove the point; the wind is supposed to switch back to the north tonight and temperatures will plummet. Well it is coming.

Last fall, Maine Outdoors made the decision to discontinue our endorsement partnership with Orvis. During our collaboration, I had the privilege of using and recommending the latest Orvis fly rods.
