No list here. Just threw it together last night and I'll find out what I forgot when I get the duck blind!

Hopefully I didn't forget the gun, waders, or jacket grin

I suppose I should add Shells or the gun is useless shocked

Don't forget the hunting reg's! Don't want to confuse anybody so you better have them with you in case the "Gustoppo" asks questions about what you are doing! grin

I have an uploaded list on my phone of all the CO's in the state, which area of the state they cover, and how each will inturpret each law. Its about 189 pages long! Only took about 2 years to compile. Hopefully all are still working and working the same area or I'm screwed!

Don't know how I forgot to mention that grin

Tape and gauze for cuts and what not. Got my thumb good when I was loading an a5 last weekend and hit the button before I cleared my hand away from the inside of the gun. Bled like a stuck pig. And a multi tool. Buddie jammed up his Winchester pump shooting wet rusty shells from last year! I used a key and a buck knife to tear it apart three times unjam it and kinda clean it. It was actually pretty comical because every third shell or so wouldn't totally ignite and the shot would barely make it out of the blind and into the water. Man we would laugh til it hurt. The cheap sob.

Important: Gun Shells License

Obvious: clothing

Nice to have: bottle of water/Diet Coke/Snickers bar

Should have: Leatherman

NECESSARY - ziplock with roll of TP in it smile

good luck all, I am actually going to bow hunt this weekend as have a couple big ducking trips ahead, and I am still on the "traditional opener" timescale.

I didn't notice this until we were at the boat landing and too far from going back to get them. had to hunt in my tennis shoes! DOH! sick

TP??

I perfer a good cattail stalk flossing. It's "green" and keeps me light on my toes as I don't have to pack it in.

Oh man.... talk like that belong down south shocked

ha! wink

Yea the humor went a little south there.

I actually like to bring flushable wipes these days. They wipe off the face paint at the end of the day, are compact so don't take up much room and take care of "cleaning up" when nature calls.

      Back when the DNR was seining our beach in July I asked, and apparently they were through oak narrows.   But long way to go to get to us.   I'll keep my eyes open and my mask and snorkel on.  Didn't see any sign off them this summer.

      Nice job Troy.   We are happy with our opening day for ducks.  2 man limit of mixed species by 10am.  LOTS of people where we were today but that was expected.  Other than getting beat to our spot, no issues that would keep up away.  Not even the rain.

      Thanks, I'm riding this now TW200 so not sure I can get on any of the ATV trails. Might have to sled by in the winter! 👍

      There are actually 3 tree carvings on the trail from Soudan to Ely.  I saw 2 of them but missed the 3rd.  I believe that trail is the Prospector Trail #4 or #6.  You have to start from the parking lot on the Murray Road 2 miles past Soudan since several property owners on the old railroad bed didn't allow off-road vehicles on their properties.  Another option is to travel from Tower to Embarrass then on to Ely, but that adds a couple hours to the trip.

      I've seen that caving on a few web pages. What trail is that on?  It would be cool to ride by. 👍

      The colors are getting good. Beautiful time of year. Maples are full red and birch and aspen are going too.  I’m not finding a formula for walleyes. Best luck when fishing saddles and shoreline drop offs 10’ down to 20’. I’m using old crawlers, too, because a) it’s hard to find minnows although Northwoods in Cook has them and b) it’s been too warm to keep them alive.  We do have a change in weather happening right now. Wind is coming up and the temperature is dropping. It’s going to be hard to fish Saturday through Monday but the change could be good after that.  Good luck, you’ll need some. They are out there and you’ll get dinner but you’ll have to work for them. RLG

      Thank you. Yes, weather does look sketchy but we'll make the best of it. Looking forward to the colors and just getting away.

      Some more heavily fished lakes are tough ALL season.  Lake Minnetonka and Mille Lacs come to mind.  The water is clear, there are tournaments all the time, and the fish are not easy to catch.   That is why I focus my efforts on lakes with less pressure.
