First time to LOW!!!

[SouthernMinnyRookie]

We are headed to Arnesen's for my first trip to LOW on open water. Any good tips for the rookie?<P>I see posts about hammered gold spinners and crawlers in 8-12 feet. We were thinking southern shore of Muskeg and a couple of areas just north of Arnesens.<P>Any help appreciated.<P>Thanks,<BR>Jason

right out in front of Arnesons is pretty<BR>good in June. Further down the South Shore<BR>the first stop is Lambertsons Rock, then<BR>Willow Creek, then Swift Ditch. The other<BR>direction is the Twin Islands, that is good<BR>in June there are a few good spots between<BR>Rocky Point and the Twin Islands.<P>This will give you several good spots to <BR>check all within 20 minutes of the boat<BR>dock.<P>Spinners & Bottom Bouncers, Spinners with<BR>Walking Sinkers, Live bait rigs (Lindy style), Jigs and even Crankbaits in the <BR>shallows. Keep switching until you find<BR>the right stuff. Crawlers, Leeches and <BR>Minnows you'd better get em all<P><BR>Good Luck, Last fridays wind storm threw<BR>everything off kilter a bit but this time<BR>of the year the fish will want to bite.<P>Your trip should be a good one.<P><P>------------------<BR>Curt Quesnell<BR>NorthCountry Outdoors Radio
