Sleeper questions

[gkl]

I'm taking my Dad up 29-31. We're staying in a Schuster's sleeper. I fished LOW before bu never stayed in a sleeper. Besides fishing gear, what should we bring? And, is Schusters selling shiners this year? Thanks for the help!

Sorry I can't help you as far as what to bring because I have never stayed with this particular outfit. I know you will need food and sleeping bags for sure. Call them to find out what is needed. Some sleepers are equipt with pots, pans, ect. Others just have a hot plate and give you 5 gallons of water. You need to figure the rest out for yourself. Look at it like a camping trip. I personally love staying in Sleepers.<P>Have fun .<p>[This message has been edited by Dr. Bob (edited 12-20-2003).]

I was at Schuster's last weekend and they did have shiners for sale. Not sure about how the sleepers are stocked. Might have to give him a call. I know there is a double burner cook stove in them.

I would bring a few things to keep you busy at night. Decks of cards, magazines, TV/VCR, stuff like that. The night bite is slow at best on LOW. At night have a line or 2 up about 3-4 ft, you might get a suspened 'eye coming through. Then put a another line or 2 real close to the bottom for the Burbot. Just don't count on steady action after the sun goes down.

I just drink beer, [PoorWordUsage] and listen to tunes after the sun goes down. I have not been board yet.<P>
