OPEN SEAT OR LOOKING FOR A FISHING PARTNER?

[Northlander]

I saw Team Otter do this in another forum and thought it was a great idea.

So if your looking for a person to fill a empty seat or need a ride post it here. Heck even looking for someone to shore fish or smelt with later.

 

 

Ill start it out.

I have a open seat at 3:45 today on the St. Louis River. Launch out of Clyde/Smithville landing.

E-mail me at [email protected] before 2pm and we can set it up.

[Wade Joseph]

Good Idea, I often have an open seat. Maybe its cause I don't know what Im doing round here yet.

I'd take you up on it today, but still couhging too much.

[Northlander]

Ya take care of yourself man you dont want that stuff in your lungs too long.

[bronzeback]

I'm up in Duluth for the school year while my boat sits at home in Brainerd. I'd really like to get out on any type of water, but seeing as how the only rod I have up here is my muskie rod and 2 lures, which I accidentally left in my car the last time i went home, I guess all I could really go out for are muskie. If anyone in the area is going out alone and needs someone to net their fish for them I'd like to tag along, I could pay you for gas in a couple of weeks. haha, after I get a job.

[Northlander]

Bronzeback Ill keep you in mind next time out. Look here daily and Ill post when Im getting out. I would love to trade a few trips with ya. I love that Brainerd area but havent fished it much. Whats the best walleye lake down that way besides Mille Lacs?

[bronzeback]

To be honest with you, walleye are really the only fish I don't actively target. I've gotten a couple bonus eyes fishing on the river for smallmouth, even a boatside strike from a walleye on a muskie bait believe it or not. But seeing as how I don't really target the fish I dont ask anyone what the best lakes are. I have heard shamineau and alexander are decent walleye lakes though. Apparently the bite was tough on both this summer though from the little bit of news I did hear.

and also to be honest with you the only kind of trip I'm really good for in Brainerd is one down the Mississippi. I've got a small aluminum boat that's seen just about all that the miss. has to offer down there.

[Northlander]

That would be cool Im a river rat anyways.

[Dano_the_jigasaurus]

bronzeback have been doing any muskie fishing up here?

contact me [email protected]

[bronzeback]

you've got mail.

[ricerdude69]

might have an open seat to go out on the river tomorrow afternoon if I decide its nice enough lol

[Northlander]

Im headed to Island or Fish tomorrow about noon so if anyone wants to jump in and enjoy a nice fall day and hopefully pop a few walters and slabs let me know at the below e-mail address.

[gritsnham]

Great idea on starting up this forum northlander ive seen it in a few other forums and it seems to work well. Its also a great way to meet other fmers face to face. Im a college student up here and dont have a boat but would love to get out in a boat around here. So if anyone ever has an open spot I would be more than happy to buy some bait and cover some gas!

Happy fishing

[basssmasher*]

I'd LOVE to go, but am 4 hrs from Duluth! :-((

Dish, I completely forgot you were on here man. Did you sign up for the club yet? Good way to get some of the younger guys on campus out onto the lakes for some hardwater!

[andrew chadwick]

[gritsnham]

Hey fretch I did sign up when Tony had the kiosk going in the plaza and the list he had going was long...im starting to look forward to the hard water season as well just need to get some venison in the freezer first!

[blf8518]

good good. You mean you haven't stumbled on a ditch rat walking through the back yard yet...Chadwick, i noticed you are a UMD student. My buddies and i are in charge of the rod and gun club on campus so if you want in drop me an email or something we are gonna try and do a meeting this week....fishing trips, meetings, club tourneys and more this winter and its a good resume builder.

[email protected]

[andrew chadwick]

hey blf, I know tony. I was going to try to make it to the meeting yesterday, but I was cleaning fish and it took longer than anticipated. I wasnt done until 720.

Im going to make the next one though

andrew

[Northlander]

Ill be hitting fish lake tomorrow about 11am. I have room for someone. Drop me a e-mail if interested.

[Northlander]

Guys its getting to that time of year where we can use this as a spot to hook up with others to ice fish with as well.

Dont forget Dec 13th at Fish Lake we will have a gathering out of Highbanks Resort. It will go all day.

[SKIPPERS KID]

steve, I have it marked But I hope there will be ICE??? I have the permanent house ready and it will be out this year if we get good ICE and now slush early. We need a good freze for two weeks at this point.

[Northlander]

We ran sleds and wheelers all over the lake for last years event and that was on the 8th I believe so Im betting we will have plenty of ice. May be some slush like last year but we will find a way to our spots. We always seem to. The slush is what sucks. Not to mention last years COLD morning then warm afternoon made getting back a "adventure". Remember Woodies house? LOL.

[Wade Joseph]

I'll try to be there...should be provided I can save enough jing for the new sled for my portable.

[andrew chadwick]

would someone be able to pull me out on their wheeler? I don't have one, and its a good distance to walk pulling a house.

[Papa Woodie]

Thanks Steve - I think my wheeler and house are still thawing out! I think if i had left the plow to my wheeler @ home i could have never got my house off that place. I had to plow a road through the water to get the slush out of the way so my house (on 2x4 skids) could make the adventure through the water. UMDguy got a heck of a ride on the back of the sled on the way back. It was nice to plow a road out there during the day when it was froze...but wading in 2' of water to get ice wasn't fun at all!

Not to mention me launching my wheeler off the back of my truck and off the ramps when i got home due to my brakes/calipers freezing up solid. It took a good 2 days @ 90 degrees in the garage to get it to thaw out so i could bring 'er to the shop to get fixed.

Lesson learned. I'll definately have a battery pack this year. After all the issues last year starting wheelers and sleds....a battery pack on the lake isn't a bad idea!

Steve/Chadwick - see the other posting about the gathering. I got a treat for you steve in my wallet.

[traveler]

"I got a treat for you steve in my wallet." man, that just isn't right...

[Northlander]

Good deal Woodie and thanks.

[bobbersup!]

thinking of heading over to washburn or bayfield area i have a sled,truck,and an open seat. just wondering if any one was interested heading over within in the next few days.

[deerwoody]

Where are you leaving from?

[Sailordude]

Bobbersup! I was just out there yesterday for the first time (Chequamegon Bay), 2 White fish and 1 smelt. Thinking going back on friday morning. I have all the gear but no sled so limited by how far I can pull. Hoping for trout and salmon but will take what I get. I'll find out in AM if I'll have a spare seat. Maybe swap phone #'s and try different locations to find the hot spot.
