Rocky Point vs Sirus? or neither

[WILLOWBROOK]

We have a potential party of 4 looking to go up fishing right before the 1st of the year. Have been up there fishing in the summer but not in the winter for many years. Would like everyones input on Cyrus and Arnesen's Rocky Point, and any other suggestions people have for pro's/con's. It will be 2 dads and each's son on the trip. Any help would be appreciated. <p>[This message has been edited by WILLOWBROOK (edited 12-03-2003).]

I have stayed at Arnesen's for the last 4 years, this January will make 5. They take very good care of you and make sure you go home with fish. The guides check on you through out the day. The lodge is nice and has good food. The cabins are nice also.

Morris Point has several american plans that include Ice house rental. The one thing I like about Morris is you don't have a long ride out to the house and the new owners are great. Take Care!!!!!!

I can't say anything on Cyrus because I have never been out of there. My dad and I for about the last 8 years know have been doing and annual trip to LOW in Feb. out of Arenson's they have alway done us good. Great service for as big of an operation that they are. We alway leave with close to our limit. Out of the 3 day that we go out of there usually one of those day is really good day. Both area's that you are talking about should be good this time of year. <P>------------------<BR>Grip it and Rip it<P>IFFWalleyes<BR>I Fish For Walleyes<BR>[email protected]<p>[This message has been edited by iffwalleyes (edited 12-04-2003).]

Arnesenes is booked for all the weekends in Dec. That might help with your selection. I've never been to Cyrus's, But I have never heard any complaints for either resorts.

I've stayed at Cyrus. Great people there!!!

I beleive they are all booked every weekend through mid January. You can get in if you go during the week. I called every single resort in that area except for two and they were all booked for Jan. 17 and 18. Good luck. I ended up booking at the motel in Baudette...bum deal!

If you would want to consider Reel Adventures out of Warroad they may have some openings. I have used them several times and I don't know of a place that has houses at are as clean and well taken care of as theirs. They have sleepers but I don't think they have any cabins I usually stay at a motel when I go there. They primarily focus on 5 mile reef. I know they are going to be at the Sportsman Show this week check them out see if you can get booked. <P>------------------<BR>Grip it and Rip it<P>IFFWalleyes<BR>I Fish For Walleyes<BR>[email protected]

We have been going up there (Cyrus) for 6+ years & have NEVER had a problem. Great people!

I would stay at Arnesens hands down! You can't beat their food at the lodge and the fishing is usually pretty good. They are however booked every weekend through January and the beginning of February. Go during the week or after that.
