Weather

The weather on spring break is supposed to be like spring isn't it? I guess that's not true for Iowa. We have some of the strangest weather patterns in this state. You never know what the next day will bring for sure. The week before spring break had a few days where it got into the seventies, and it was extremely beautiful like spring. We get into our spring break and that disappears quite rapidly. The temperatures plummeted back to freezing, and the rains began. This was pretty disappointing for many people. Especially people like me who want to be outdoors. I did manage to do a number of things outdoors despite the cold temperatures. I did things such as camping, basketball, and tennis. However, I didn't get to do my favorite activity which is fishing. When the temperatures are as cold as they are, the fish seem to not bite as well. Cold fronts can be devastating in the spring time. They turn the fishing off very fast. I have proof of this. My uncle went to the Mississippi River on a day when it was about thirty-five degrees and they caught one fish. You might say that's still one fish, but the Mississippi River is known for producing much higher numbers than that. That river is actually my favorite place to fish. Anyway, that is why I think it's a good idea to wait until it warms up a little more to go fishing. I can't wait to get out and try it for the first time since winter hit. The weather plays a big part in fishing, and I hope I will be able to time it out just right. In conclusion, I hope next spring break is warmer, and I'm excited for the weather to warm up.
