We put quite a bit of thought in choosing the date and weather was a big part of it. Like you say usually dry that time of year. Usually......

Still warm enough to be enjoyable and not so late in the year to be cold but late enough after summer that temps and water temps in the pond should be ok for fishing. We stayed away from July or August because families taking vacations and awfully hot and hard on the fish if we allowed fishing.

Usually mid September is a very pleasant time of year around here. Hopefully will be on Sept 22.
