It has been crazy here in Middleton, WI for lawn care already this spring.  We are poised to have a great season.  Please see the link below about National Lawn Care Month!

Saturday was a great day for fishing

I was able to get the ok from my wife to take the day and go trout fishing last Saturday.  What a beautiful day it was (despite the wind).  I was able to meet up with a good friend, Len Harris on a stretch of water that was new to me and Len was revisiting after a number of years.  It was truly one of the most beautiful pieces of water I have ever seen, and the trout fishing did not disappoint either!  I actually had two doubles (when you have two fish on at the same time, two flies)!  The driftless area of WI truly is under-appreciated.  Here are some pics courtesy of Len

My son's first trophy fish

I plan on going trout fishing tomorrow and will provide a report on that.  Dawson, my 10 month old, wanted to show dad his first 'trophy' as well.  As you can see, he is showing me how big it is (although he probably doesn't know it).  I truly look forward to the day that I can help Dawson catch his first fish.  I believe the younger generations are really struggling to have any sense of the outdoors as they are submerged in 'instant gratification' like video games, facebook, text messaging, etc.  It will be imperative to our children to have a sense of the outdoors whether it be hiking, fishing, camping, hunting, etc.  I hope to share my love of fishing and the outdoors with my son Dawson. 

Radio

Whether you are in the Madison, Milwaukee, Rockford or Fox Valley areas, you should be hearing Weed Man Lawn Care radio advertisements fairly consistently on certain stations right now.  We have really heard nothing but positive reactions from them so we really appreciate the positive feedback and everyone requesting quotes. 
I will also be speaking at 6:50 am on 1310 WIBA every Monday morning starting April 4th to discuss lawn care tips.  Ben, our sales manager will also be doing this in the Fox Valley market on 1360 WTAQ starting next week at 6:50am. 

Winter Damage and Recovery 

As we enter spring (I know it doesn't feel like it this week), Weed Man should be supplying the radio waves with many lawn care tips for those that would like to do it themselves or seek professional help from Weed Man.  It is certainly, always an exciting time of year for our company.

Also, I couldn't let a post go by without mentioning my beloved Badgers making an appearance in the Sweet 16!  What a pleasure to watch Opie Taylor...I mean Mike Bruesewitz and the energy he plays with.  Go Badgers!

Opening day of trout season means the opening of spring

I know that spring doesn't technically start till much later in March.  But, to me, when I hear the word March I think spring.  Last weekend was the opener for early trout fishing.  It felt so good to get outside despite the cooler temps.  The fishing was good but will get better as water temps rise.  Many native brook trout were caught with a spattering of browns as well, nothing huge this trip but it doesn't matter.  It only matters that March is here again.  March Madness is in the beginning stages with conference tournaments starting and soon after that Weed Man will be out treating lawns and helping them out of the doldrums of winter.  There is already a great buzz in the air in all four of our markets in Madison, Milwaukee, Rockford and the Fox Valley and it is going to be a great lawn care season.  We are in full swing in our marketing campaigns on foot and over the radio waves.  Oh, and I almost forgot, Thursday night at Red Lobster for my wife's birthday, her favorite.  Trout fishing, basketball, the start to the lawn care season and a birthday...

Yes, this month--March.  March is the best month of the year.
