It's supposed to be active all night and tomorrow night too. It comes in waves (substorms) so if it isn't visible when you go outside, wait 30 minutes and try again. It's not this brilliant to the naked eye, but give your eyes time to adjust, it's there.

One of the best days I've ever had fishing for lake run fish in the south shore tributaries of Lake Superior...3 steelhead and 3 coho salmon. Beats the hell out of working #fuckmoneygetfishes

Another (inland) trout season in the books, glad I snuck out of work today for one last trip.

Unannounced power line work on my block this afternoon, and no power means no working, so I called in #fuckmoneygetfishes
Right call. Beautiful day, caught some great fish. 10/10.

Only a couple more days before these two head off their forever home...I'll definitely miss them, but goodbye is the goal, right? #fosterkittens
One lucky person is about to have two of the most affectionate kittens I've ever met.

@governorwalz.mn.gov why is the state patrol flying aimlessly at low altitude over a residential neighborhood at 2 AM? Why do they do this ALL THE FUCKING TIME over this neighborhood in particular?

Forgot to post my Wednesday afternoon adventure! Was a chilly, rainy day, but work was slow, so I called in #fuckmoneygetfishes for the afternoon.
Landed some really nice brook trout in one of my favorite streams, got soaked, and stank like a wet dog by the time the sun went down.
Better than work!

Caught not one, but two, incredibly rare tiger trout while blowing off my work this afternoon. A tiger trout is a rare (but wild in this case), sterile hybrid created when a male brook trout fertilizes the eggs of a female brown trout. These two bring my lifetime total to five.

Have you ever seen such an adorable batch of kittens? (If your answer is yes, you're lying or you need to post pics to prove it)
Available for adoption (and so is their mom, an adorable tiny tortie) in about 2 weeks from Bitty Kitty Brigade in Minneapolis

She (the tabby) was in "his" (oramge) chair. He wanted to be in his chair, so I placed him there. There was a brief interlude of growling (her). A peace has since been established.

The horrors are still horroring, but I took the afternoon off and went fishing. 35 degree days in January in MN are a rare treat.
