Please say a prayer for all affected that day. I hope that includes yourself.

Please also say a prayer for ourselves and leadership that we may stay highly focused on the elimination of the terrorists and support of our troops who are sacrificing to accomplish that objective.

May we all be of one mind when it comes to prayers for the elimination of terrorists and terrorism for any reason.

Remember 9/11

I watched the rerun of the 9-11 reports from 2001.

Still breaks my heart and brings a grown man too tears watching these attacks.

May we never Forget !!!

God bless the families and all who helped during that tragic day.

I wish the show on ABC about the events leading to 9/11 would have been on every channel. Too many people forget too easily. It makes me so sad and yet so mad at the same time. This event needs to be burned into everyones memory till we defeat those who would not think twice about killing you and your wife and children.

I thought the CBS special they aired on WCCO this morning was very appropriate! They had moderators read those innocent American's that were victimized by terristic acts 5 years ago. My prayers and thoughts go out to those families that lost loved ones.

I bought a VHS tape called something like CNN Remembers 9/11 and I watched it after the Vikes game last night. It contains a ton of footage from that day, some of which I never even saw that day (like the video of the first plane hitting the first tower). It was very stirring watching it last night. I had bought it a couple years ago and never watched it. Next year the oldest kid will watch it with me and we'll talk about what happened. When the girls get a little older I'll watch it with them too. Wish more people remembered that day as vividly as I did after watching that show. I didn't think I had forgotten anything, I've tried very hard not to, but I realize now that the intensity of the feelings had gone away, UNTIL I watched that again last night...

NEVER FORGET and GOD BLESS THE U.S.A.!!!!!!

      I might have missed a guess, but here are the ones that I noted:   JerkinLips – March 27th, then April 7th Brianf. – March 28th Bobberwatcher – April…. MikeG3Boat – April 10th SkunkedAgain – early April, then April 21st   Definitely a tough year for guesses, as it seemed to be a no-brainer early ice out. Then it got cold and snowed again.

      Sturgeon Fishing is Hot

      By LakeofthewoodsMN · Posted

      On the south end...   Lots of ice on the main basin, but it is definitely deteriorating.  Some anglers have been fishing the open water at the mouth of the Rainy River in front of the Lighthouse Gap.  The rest of the basin is still iced over. Pike enthusiasts caught some big pike earlier last week tip up fishing in pre-spawn areas adjacent to traditional spawning areas.  8 - 14' of water using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring has been the ticket.  Ice fishing for all practical purposes is done for the year. The focus for the basin moving forward will be pike transitioning into back bays to spawn,  This is open water fishing and an opportunity available as the pike season is open year round on Lake of the Woods. The limit is 3 pike per day with one being able to be more than 40 inches. All fish 30 - 40 inches must be released. With both the ice fishing and spring fishing on the Rainy River being so good, many are looking forward to the MN Fishing Opener on Saturday, May 11th.  It should be epic. On the Rainy River...  An absolutely incredible week of walleye and sturgeon fishing on the Rain Rainy River.     Walleye anglers, as a rule, caught good numbers of fish and lots of big fish.  This spring was one for the books.   To follow that up, the sturgeon season is currently underway and although every day can be different, many boats have caught 30 - 40 sturgeon in a day!  We have heard of fish measuring into the low 70 inch range.  Lots in the 60 - 70 inch range as well.   The sturgeon season continues through May 15th and resumes again July 1st.   Oct 1 - April 23, Catch and Release April 24 - May 7, Harvest Season May 8 - May 15, Catch and Release May 16 - June 30, Sturgeon Fishing Closed July 1 - Sep 30, Harvest Season If you fish during the sturgeon harvest season and you want to keep a sturgeon, you must purchase a sturgeon tag for $5 prior to fishing.    One sturgeon per calendar year (45 - 50" inclusive, or over 75"). Most sturgeon anglers are either a glob of crawlers or a combo of crawlers and frozen emerald shiners on a sturgeon rig, which is an 18" leader with a 4/0 circle hook combined with a no roll sinker.  Local bait shops have all of the gear and bait. Up at the NW Angle...  Open water is continuing to expand in areas with current.  The sight of open water simply is wetting the pallet of those eager for the MN Fishing Opener on May 11th.   A few locals were on the ice this week, targeting pike.  Some big slimers were iced along with some muskies as well.  If you like fishing for predators, LOW is healthy!

      Early bird gets the worm some say...   I have it on good authority that this very special angler caught no walleyes or muskies and that any panfish caught were released unharmed.
