Am I the only one that thinks the Vikes will go 8-8 at the very absolute best this season? The Dummies I am referring to in the headline is the new Vikes commercials with the dummies claiming the Vikes will go to the Super Bowl this year- they either need to yank these ads or have new ones made where someone is slapping some sense into these (Contact Us Please). Actually- leave the ads on TV- I need a good laugh every once in awhile. BTW- I truly believe 8-8 is a pipe dream so please don't say I am dreaming, I know it isn't going to happen. (7-9 is my guess)

They've got one of the best defenses in the league. With any help at all from the offense and a little luck 8-8 is not out of the question.

Maybe they will be the surprise team of the league. No wait I am dreaming. I am a die hard fan but even a diehard has to have some common sense. No names getting it done??? Good luck. I hope by December I can look back at this post and say I was wrong, but highly doubt it. I know the defense will be there but even if the score is 7-0 or 3-0 they still count as a loss.

One of the best defenses?? C'mon, where did they finish vs the pass last year and they lost Tomlin. I say 2-14. Plus, ChiliDog is a buffoon. My reasons they will suck:

worst pass defense in league

ChiliDog

No QB

ChiliDog

No WR

ChiliDog

No "star" power

ChiliDog

No history of winning

Childress does need to go- he reminds of that nerdy guy from the old Burt Reynolds-Marilu Henner show Evening Shade.

He's a cross between Ned Flanders of The Simpsons and Bernie from Weekend at Bernie's.

HA HA HA HA, no seriously, he is.

Slaughtered by a MLB??? There will be pain felt, no doubt, but not from AP, I can't wait to see the slow-mos of Urlacher eating his chin strap grin.gifgrin.gif Suprise team, yes. Playoffs? Probably not. 8-8 seems fair.

The only thing I am looking forward to is seeing exactly how good that Iowa kid Greenway really is.......

I think they will be better than last years team and remember they get to play Greenbay twice. 8-8 (which could make a wildcard)

I love the Vikes but am realistic. Id love to have 8 games that were good to the end but will settle for 8 halves.

Quit setting up the Viks for failure. Why must you pick apart all the negatives of the team. I know it can be comforting at the end of the season to tell everybody "I knew the vikings were going to stink, I said at the begining of the preseason they'd be 3-13, yadda, yadda, yadda". I don't know why I waste my time reading people talking smack about MY VIKINGS. If your predicting 3-13 then don't watch them this year and do something productive with your time this fall. I on the other hand, will be cheering on the Viks with a cold beer in my hand!

P.S. They WILL be 12-4 at least!!! and I can't wait to tell you at the end of the regular season, I told you so.

If you can not be oppitimistic and enjoy the game then you can not be a fan. A fan will be optomistic and cheer until the game or season is so far gone. then they will just sit and cheer the good plays no matter the final result.

Fan short for fanatic.

      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

      As I get older it's really not just about sending bullets down range.  Some of it's just the workmanship of the gun and the wow factor. The other two guns I have really wanted which I'll never have now because of their price, is a 8mm Jap Nambu and 9mm German Luger.   Just thought they always looked cool!

      I had a guy hit me with a lightly used 1969 BAR, he wanted $1650 with an older Leupold scope. More than I think they are worth, I made an offer, he declined end of story.   You know if you look at the old brochures, a grade II BAR sold for $250 in the late 60s, $1650 would be a good return on your investment.    Why would anybody want a 50 year old gun, they are heavy, have wood stocks, and blued metal.  I guess mainly to keep their gun safes glued to the floor. lol   You can probably buy a stainless rifle that you never have to clean, with a synthetic stock you never have to refinish, is as light as a feather, and for half as much money, perfect.   I'm too old for a youth gun, although I've shrunk enough that it would probably fit. lol   No Ruger 10/44s.   Jim
