ATV Moron


Recommended Posts

This is to the driver of the ATV that I saw get onto Hwy 5 just east of Waconia and drive it all the way into Victoria:

I don't know what you were thinking or what you were trying to accomplish, but you came very close to critically injuring or even killing yourself--not to mention the innocents on the road that you could have victimized as well. 50+ mph is much too fast to be driving that thing half on the road and half on the shoulder. I would have thought you'd have slowed down after one of the many times you very nearly lost control, or the time it threw you completely across the lane and halfway into the oncoming lane. But I guess you were too concerned in quickly getting to where you were going without the police seeing you driving illegally. You didn't do anything to help further the cause of the many responsible, law-abiding ATV riders. What you did was more than simply irresponible, dangerous, and illegal. It was just plain idiotic. I hope you realize how stupid you were and straighten out. If you don't think what you did was wrong, then I urge you to check yourself in to the nearest screw factory to get rethreaded.

I happen to know Waconia has a very good ambulance service. They need work too.

This lends some credence to the theory of natural selection, the gene pool tends to get thinned out when the lesser endowed members of the species eliminate themselves through stupid acts.

survival of the fittest= The weeding of the stupid, people like that probably are not even members of this site, in my mind.

I think our ex-gov Jessie said it the best, "it's god's way of weeding out the idiots". He was refering to snowmobiliers but it works here to.

This type of post is obviously lost on someone like the aforementioned rider - too many words longer than 3 letters. A little too much chlorine in that gene pool........
If it was just himself he was hurting it would be fine, but it does give other riders a bad name, and he put a lot of other people at risk, too. I've said this in other posts, "common sense" is more and more an oxymoron.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
