With a little over a week left until Christmas. Thought it about time I posted my Fishing Christmas Card/Poem again to you all. Made a few subtle changes to it from last year. Enjoy.

“Twas the night before Christmas and all across Saginaw Bayâ€

“The shantys were lit up with ice fishermen wanting to stayâ€

“I had just sat out a Tip-Up that I positioned within viewâ€

“But concentrated more on my jigging as Tip-Up's take fewâ€

“My Do-Jiggers flutter had just settled and awaited it's fateâ€

“As a thick band of red appeared next to it on the OL’FL8â€

“My pulse soon quickened, and my rod hand started to shakeâ€

“I sat almost motionless, while awaiting the takeâ€

“With the first twitch of the rod tip, and a snap of the wristâ€

“I drove home the sharp trebles, in the jaw of the fishâ€

“His struggle was valiant, with violent bends in the poleâ€

“But with slow steady pressure, I worked him up into the holeâ€

“Her girth was impressive, Her length 30 inches or soâ€

“My buddy looked puzzled, when I said...... "I think I’m letting her goâ€

“Some things need explaining, and others fall into placeâ€

“I had to say something, from the look on his faceâ€

“Think of this buddy, before we call it a nightâ€

“Tomorrows Gods birthday, and He's blessed everything with lifeâ€

“I’ve caught plenty of walleyes, and taken home my shareâ€

“I’m giving this one back to him, it would only be fairâ€

“So down into the hole, and under the iceâ€

“Now swim away, swim away, and give someone else a good fightâ€

Capt: Dan.
