Will It Ever Freeze Again?

Pine Barrens Winter Pickerel Thought I'd include a link, but Fred's the star again, with his continued largemouth and pickerel action down there near Long Beach Island, but firmly on the mainland. It was a cold day yesterday, but look what he caught on a 4-inch Senko. I like those pine trees over his head. There's definitely the sense that they invite you to something else, compared to the environment up here where I live in the Highlands.

And my wife tells me we're in for a freeze. I told her that's what we need, for ice fishing. Hoping so. I was just thinking today that Round Valley Reservoir hasn't frozen over since early 2015.

The big question--will it ever freeze over again?
