Who saw "The Truck"?

[hanson]

Ooops...

[CrappieAttitude]

I don't even want to ask how that happened...

Bummer!!

So what happened?

CA

[DJH]

I'll ask, Who? What? How? When?

[marine_man]

I believe Curt Quesnell told us that it will have been in the drink for a month today (monday).

It's not every day you can tell someone you were out fishing by the truck!

So what kind of fish could a guy find holding in that kind of structure? lol

[Old Guide]

I wonder how many pictures were taken of it? After every thing was said and done,what was the biggest one caught?

[curt quesnell]

There were ducks living in the darn thing.

Legend has it two dudes were Sturgeon fishing from

shore sittin on the end gate of there truck. Nobodys

seen them fellers since..........I reckon

[gorrilla]

Thats one way to rinse out the interior...

[Kaz]

How are they going to retrieve it that far off shore. There isn't a cable long enough. Dragging it back will not work. Can they float it with some inner tubes under the frame?? Going to be something to see happen.... Kaz

Maybe they can use those planks that are hanging out in the back of the box. I guess they probably intended to use them to bridge open water in the first place.

It looks like the truck is on a nice shallow hump, I would cast off the hood in the evening and see what you can catch. You could store your minnows in the back of the truck.

It is now lying on it side, looks like some ice got it.

Really, it was pretty banged up for sure. We head out on Sat. and saw that and I said well there is something you don't see everyday. So the joke for us was where did you fish today "by the pickup". It is going to take one big wench and cable system to get that out.

[HaywardBound]

What is that thing poking through the door?

[marine_man]

I wonder if they tried pulling it in? It looks like there's a chain connected near the rear axle. I don't recall seeing the floating jug tied up to the front last weekend either.

Wow, thats unreal!

Bunch of pelicans must have all sat on the same side of the truck to tip it over like that.

[night bite]

I was up there a couple weeks ago for the end of walleye fishing and we stopped in at wheelers point for a drink. The bartender told us that they were going to have a boat from canada come down with a crain on it to lift it out. dont know if that is true or not seems a little shallow.

[deano]

Where is this at?

[the squirrel]

I have never seen anyone spear a truck before.. The front end is busted up good.. I wonder who ever owns this would sell those rims and tires at a water damaged price.

Right at the mouth of the river on 4 mile bay, on the west edge of the river channel.

[hattrk4me]

Not sure what the laws are but don't they have to retrieve it by a certian number of days before big fines happen? I'm not tree hugger but what a enviromental hazard.

[Esoxmn]

I would think if it has been in there that long, it has to been geting spendy.

[gorrilla]

I don't think that's what is intended by the term "Off Road Use".....

[papabear]

How do you explain that to the wife?

[Milkdud]

You don't! You just go out and buy another one that looks close to the old one.....most women would never know!

[benelli_dude2002]

A buddy of mine in town said he just put a new motor in that truck ( think he said it was v-10 ) he didnt say how deep of water it will run in though.

[ishgood]

Pelicans. Heh heh. Pretty funny.

Truck for sale.

Very clean.

Hasn't been driven since March.

Located near LOW. Very near.

You pick up.

[BigTipUp]

I am sure it is posted somewhere on here........but....

Can someone tell me what really happened?? or could someone tell me where I can find the true story behind this pickup?

Thank you

[big musk411]

I heard this from the Bartender at Wheelers[not sure how true]. Some guy came up to Baudette to work the ice fishing season for the first time. He intended on making a name for himself. Supposevly it was his bosses truck that he took out after they closed the road. He hit a crack off to the side of the road and went through. Then he left town.
