Will anybody be bringing a propane grill, small or large? I would just need to heat something up on it, some goodies wrapped in foil, they'll already be pre-cooked.

If not, I think they will taste just fine cold. smile

Sure there will be some there, but usually are hogged by the beans and chili...will see if I can find my camp stove. Thought "mr camper extraordinaire" would have something like that....oh wait you just use two sticks rubbed together for fire and rocks for cookware......

Don't worry about it PB, I need a new table top one anyways. I'll just pick one up. I just don't feel like putting one together tonight. lol

I've got a bunch of little backpacking camp stoves, but they wouldn't work in this case.

It's a good excuse to buy one, at least in my mind. smile

Hey everyone,

So this is my first Cool Cats and I am very excited. I lost my partner to go, so I will be coming up alone.

I will be bringing minnows and chicken liver.

If anyone is on the way on 94W, I am coming from St. Louis Park going 94W.

my email is: masoct3 (@) g mail.com

I'll be bringing a large propane burner base (the deep fryer variety). I'm sure it can be used a multitude of ways. smile

Just got back from the store with all my ingredients for Fish Balls. Time to start cookin.

Would it be wrong to sneak a few pieces of liver in the mix? grin

I'm bringing a Coleman cookstove.

I got home from work kinda late last night so I missed a chance to go fishing. I did, however, cut up a bunch of onions for the missus.......who then made a big arsed pot of chili.

My house smells really good right now.

Glad your still coming! If you cant find a partner just look for a black suburban and a fatfish and clam tent with a little kid running around. You can set up right next to us and can help you out with anything.

Add those chicken liver's Darren. They may be just as good as the deep fried ones we had a few short years ago.

Look for Shawn and myself in "The Tin Man" fish house. She may be ugly, but she's comfy! See everyone around 7:30!

Thanks Pushbutton!

I was wondering what arsenal I need to bring with me?

Specifically, do I need my sled? I would rather not bring it but if need be, okay. It just takes up quite a bit of room in my Toyota Camry. I would love to park near my Bigfoot and not bring sled.

I plan on bringing the following (please let me know about adjustments):

-Big Foot XL2000 (I can house more than myself, it might get really boring if I have no one to talk to..

-Mr Buddy w/ refills

-Vex FL-8se

-Chair

-Tackle

-Rods

-Bait

Anything else?

I really appreciate it, and plan on having a great time with all of you!

-Michael

You pretty much got it covered. Nope, no sled needed. Just drive on out, park it, and your good to go. I wont be there till around 8:30, but if you, or anyone gets there earlier and does not have an auger....go find the guy in a tin shed, he has a gator and loves to show it off grin Seriously though, this is a helpful bunch and just ask if you have questions.

I'm hoping to got there around 830. If anyone needs holes drilled let me know I will be in a frabill cabin next to a red jeep Cherokee. I brought my auger in the shop and got the carb adjusted for the real cold. All I ask is that someone let me know what depths the cats are at my vex got ran over last weeken.

Funny guy! grin But he's right. I love showing off this awesome auger built by small company. They've done me right, and enjoy helping them any chance I get.

I'll explain the ION vs. 'Gator business off forum at the event, though.

I'll be there a bit after sunrise. Silver Subaru Outback and dark green flip-over portable. I'll have a spare seat in my portable too if someone is fishing without one. Gonna be chilly on the ice this morning.

      Bait

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Bait

      By SkunkedAgain · Posted

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      Bait

      By CigarGuy · Posted

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      By SkunkedAgain · Posted

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.

      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
