Would sound alot better if it were Harry saying it. Good luck to the Cubbies in the play-offs. I would much rather have seen them win a WS before the Red OR White Sox did.

Nice to see the Mets have trouble with the Marlins too.

Now if the Cubs can just stop being a streaky-type scoring team they have just as good a chance as any other NL team.

Hang in there with me guys....keep rooting for 'em.

HAAAAALOOOOO Again Everybody,

Harry Carry here from the great beyond singing the seventh inning stretch as my good friend Geno's Cubbies prepare to do combat in the playoffs. Geno spelled backwards is Oneg...Anyway

LET ME HERE YA.....AH ONE.....AH TWO......AH THREE........

Congrats Geno, now you went and stepped in it. You have just committed yourself to another few weeks of nerve wracking games with your beloved Cubbies. Keep sipping the Cubbie Blue Kool-Aid but keep the Pepto and Jack Daniels close at hand!!!!!! And enjoy the roller coaster ride!

Take me out to the ballgame...........

Your ole pale,

Windy

Alright Zam, hard NOT to root for the Cubbies (don't you just love the underdog?)...unless your name is Windy.

Windy,

Worst to First.........is better than First to ALMOST last.

PS BLUE Kool aid is the best (when they are winning).

Hot Streak??? The hot streak belongs to the Rockies and Phillies. Hot Streak and Cubs is like International Falls and South Beach. Sad to say, that since both play in a respectable DIv, they might not make the playoffs. Either way, I'am looking for an even 100 years-- how about you???

Go anybody but the cubs.

Alright Geno congrats to your cubbies! Represent the NL Central like the Cardinals did last year, ok!

It will be tournament time after today. Getting psyched for the playoffs and some good ball coming soon and even these wild card races going down the wire have gotten me stirred up for the post season. Good luck to everyones team that made it and go Cubs!

Windy-

Totally agree with you. Being a Twins fan, it's hard for me to cheer for the Sox, but you can bet your bottom that if it was the Sox representing the AL this year and Cubs the NL-- I'd go out and by a Paulsie jersey and maybe throw in a Jenks t-shirt!!!! Over in DSM with the farm club being the I-Cubs-- it's all we hear about on the news, Cubs and more Cubs. What about the fact that Boston won the east being the first team in 12 years to de-throne the Yanks?? I guess a loser gets more press than a winner??? I guess it comes down to the fact that anybody can win once, but a repeat winner with all gunning for you is a difference maker. I do think the Cubs take Webb and the Backs' to 5 games only to see Zambrono go Joaquin Andujar in Game 5.

Mud,

Not sure it will go that far, I would say the `Backs in 4. And if it were down to the Twinks vs Cubs I would shave my beard into a Gardy goatee and paint a big ole TC on my chest. Now that's a scary thought!!!

Hey,

Shut your pie hole and enjoy your Cubbie Playoff Kool-Aid, ole man! Me and my new buddy Mud are subscribing to the "misery loves company" theory and are soothing each others wounds. You have enough on your plate figuring out how your Cubbies are going to get past the pitching staff of the Diamondbacks. I hope you are packing your anti-venom because those Diamondbacks pack quite a punch! LOL

And for your information we are a 3rd and 4th place team if you please!!! LMAO

      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
    • leech~~
      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!  
    • jim curlee
      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
