Looking for recommendations for Lake of the Woods, Leech or Winnie to bring some customers out. Looking at a group of 20 max. Just looking for day houses and lodging at night. Looking to go during the week, like Monday - Wednesday. Does anyone know of an outfitter that can handle a group this big? Last few years we have done Red Lake and has been great. Just worried with this new slot on Red we won't get enough keepers for the clients to bring home their limit.

Thank you

I have only stayed at zippel bay so I Can not say if they are they best out there but I can tell you that I was really happy with what they had to offer when I went. The resort is nice they put us on fish.

If you are looking for keepers for them to take home I might suggest Devils Lake. Woodland resort is awesome out there!

1. From the metro its almost the same drive as LOW

2. The resort is nice and has many pricing option packages with day house.

3. The restaurant and bar at the resort is really good

4. The staff works really hard to put you on fish check in with you and will move you to different houses to get you on them

5. Perch the size of footballs

6. When we targeted walleye it was some of the best fishing I have every done I caught 30 in less than an hour every one was a good eater as well.

I have a group of 16 that goes out of Border View in the fall and uses one of their bigger cabins. Outstanding to be able to have everyone in the same cabin if possible.

Grand Lodge has a big great room and 8 bedrooms.

Great cabin is also and option holds 12 people and they are next to each other.

Other resorts have big cabins that can handle big parties as well.

Look for something big where everyone can eat, meet, play cards and talk after the day and you will have fun!!!!

Border View has been great to us in the past as well. They run a great operation and we usually bring a coach bus of guys up for a Monday-Wednesday trip as well and have no problem getting fish to bring home.

I will also put in a vote for Border View!

They have a couple large condos that can handle your group, great food and good fishing!

      Those flooding problems are a sign of your needle and seat are leaking.  If the needle has a ring around the tip you can clean it if it's brass. If it has a black rubber tip then it needs to be replaced. You can clean the needle and seat with things like rubbing compound or even toothpaste I use a product called Semi chrome. It for polishing die pins. Just clean them up after polishing.

      All of those Polaris sleds from that era were notorious for flooding and leaking. I've still got a 2003 XCSP 600 Edge that my daughter rides. As you noted, you need to shut off the fuel in those situations.

      Yes, but it could make for an amazing walleye opener.

      How old is your belt?   My old Polaris 4 wheeler with belt drive was bogging at mid range to top end last year.  Changed the belt and that problem went away.

      Previous owner (22 years and 5,000 miles ago) said it was prone to flooding when sitting for a long time or trailering, so I shut the fuel off in both cases.   Primary is significantly worn.  I replaced several rollers and pins which helped.  I have two used clutches in much better condition that I could (and should) install.   It seems more like when I hit the throttle, but the bog could be from poor clutch shifting.  Will have to pay attention next time and inspect the clutches.  Thanks for the ideas.

      Nope, he beat me fair and square, all his.  This weather had been depressing. As it sits now we are looking at a later than normal ice out. I hate scrabbling with docks, lifts, boats right before opener. Also limits some pre opener crappie chances.

      In those years Polaris was known to put buna tipped needles in there sleds. They get a ring around the seat and don't seal shut. But if that would be the case your problem would be with the motor shut off and filling the crankcase with gas. If your plugs are brown that is were they should be. I wouldn't drop that needle down to the last grove. I would replace them before I did that. I have never had a carb with that setting. Have you looked at your clutches? They could be dirty or have a bad roller.  Does it bog as it's accelerating or when you hit the throttle?
