Wow, thanks guys for the great welcome!

I was on my way to Proctor for the stock car races when I found the rod. I really hope the owner See's this because it's a expensive set up. I'll be putting it in the Duluth news paper as well.

I live in Tower and spend some time on the big-v, so I have room in my rod locker for another rod but, the person that lost it would be out a lot of money not to mention that it could be his favorite rod! And I have to be honest about it and give the person a chance at getting it back.

I did lose a rod about two weeks ago. It was a guide series pro select rod 7' MH with a Abu Garcia 6600C3 reel and it also had a rod sock on it. If it is mine let me know or shoot me an email at [email protected]

Jaws, let me be the first to say your an honorable person for returning this equipment. Many would have celebrated their luck in finding it and put it in the rod rack at home. Hats off to you.

Great job Jaws!

For those who use rod socks make sure you strap them rods down. All those socks do is turn your rods into kites. I quit using them for this reason unless Im putting the rods in the rod lockers.

Im glad you guys got your rods back.

Wow guy's thanks cool.gif I guess it does pay to be honest!

I guess I looked at it this way, the person that lost the rod I'm sure was pretty bummed out when he noticed it was gone. I sure would have been! frown.gif It's great that we found the owner and made another fishing buddy happy, that's what life's about. ( I'm sure some of you guy's asked around also, so hat's off to yous also for the help! ) Until next time, Good luck fishing and take care!

Jaws, a tip of the hat to you.

Steve your not kidding about the rod socks catching air. I just about lost 4 rods combos in my Ready Rig rod bag.

Anyone find that 16' Lund that I lost with the 125hp 4-stroke? grin.gif

Nice work Jaws, and welcome to the forum. What a way to make a grand entrance!

There is NO WAY Jaws could feel as good about finding/scoring a lost rod and reel as he does finding the owner and handing it back. We should all be so lucky to be on either end of this "transaction".

      End of April is my guess for lakes along the I90 corridor.

      Great.  Have to swing by soon to see what they have, then over to Petti Bros for some jerky and sticks!

      Great news. They opened last Wednesday. Sounds like it’s about twice as big. Looking forward to checking it out soon.

      Last weekend I was monitoring a bay on Tonka whether people were still driving out. I saw 6-7 vehicles. In one spot there were 4 trucks with 3 wheel houses. One of the houses was 20 ft+. On Sunday I arrived to see the sheriff put up a thin ice sign that 6 vehicles had driven past.   I returned to fish it last Wednesday late afternoon with 4 vehicles already out. Drove to the spot I fished 2 other times in the last month and drilled the first hole. LiveScope showed the fish 30-50 feet away. Drilled a cluster of 5 holes in that spot and game on. It was almost as fast as you could put your line down. A lot of up bites. After it slowed down on the small jigging spoon, I switched to a 4mm tungsten jig and caught more. The fish shifted 10 feet away once where one of the other holes was and then went back to the initial hole. For crappie, I ended up with a 13, a couple 12s, couple 11s, three 10s and a handful of 9s. Also 4 bluegill either side of 8” plus several smaller of both species. All fish were released. The pictures I posted are the 13 with me, both 12s an 11 and a dink. I measured them on a Li’l Dipper which is accurate from the middle of the hole at the top of the handle. I am going to order a Ketch board. The rod for the tungsten jig is a Tickle Stick and for the spoon a Panfish Sweetheart.   All three times I’ve fish this spot the big fish move out about 60-90 minutes before dark. I suppose they are moving to a different area (weedline?) to feed. If I get out to this spot again this year I’ll try and figure out where. When I drove off the bay there were still 6 other vehicles out.

      Yup. Bullseye on the Ricochet . Bit o simple St Pats humor as that’s how I live n guess this flows thru my fingers.   Always interesting to see how close guesses are here.   where my island is clears out before the bay n large sections of lake so that is fun also. In past a few times last 28 years I hit it right on. Silly icy fun Big Smiles n Keep on Rocken! T
