Fished Saturday of opener.  Morning was cold and slow! Fished the birdhouses sugar and ravens couple walleyes dropped and a few decent perch and 1 pike.  Headed to stony and had a nice afternoon kept enough for a nice meal for my family, and had several releases.   Sunday was blustery to say the least. Drank coffee and had a nice breakfast and hit the road.  Normal jig and shiner bite.  Put in at Richards townsite I have a roller trailer and a 2o foot lund alaskan  and had no problemss.  Guy  with a big ranger on a bunk was not able to launch from there.  Local resorts have great landings and always are willing to take a launch fee.  Back up this weekend !

BRRRRRRRR!     I think I might shiver for a week! LOL  Got there Sunday and started fishing Monday with my BIL.  Mainly in McCavity Bay.  Tried shiners  a couple hours and no luck and lousy weather so went to bowstring for a couple hours to try it.  North end access is not much good right now with the low water.  I know the folks at Giegers so put in there and ended up with a couple northerns and some perch.  Tuesday hit McCavity bay again with shiners and still could not figure it out. Brought crawlers from the yard along and decided to try CutFoot. Found them on the second spot we tried. :)  3 just under 18 and a 16 to keep and 9 slots went back in, biggest was 22. All on crawlers.  Went back today and we netted 1 17 incher right away, a dandy gill and 3 perch.  Froze by 1230 so headed back to break down the pop up over at The Pines. So much fun to do while frozen and wet. lol.  Nice meeting John there a chatting a bit. Hope to get back up there sometime and give it another go.

      Fish Newton lake is great for walleyes. Everyone goes to basswood and forgets about newton. The late fall pike bite in pipestone is amazing and it’s a great time to catch the big walleyes are up there feeding too.

      It would cost you 830 bucks to watch every game this NFL season under multiple platforms.   I don't have peacock or espn+ or whatever they want me to have, so I'll just have to relent on being able to watch a few games.  I refuse to cave in to their demands just to watch the Packers play the Eagles in Brazil.  I think last year peacock had the exclusive rights to the Miami/KC playoff game too.  I'm sure that will occur again in January.

      Well it's a win, but it wasn't to Purdy with all the turn overs and penalties!

      Another prediction.   Under the cloud of "Woke Inclusion" Just like the Mn state flag and the Mn Twins, the Vikings name will be going away in a few years! Their already making them look like Snow flakes!  We can't have the uniforms of angry Norwegian people!  Sounds funny but. Wait for it! 😒

      New frontiers.  Expand the market; make more money.  Despite some PR moments, they’re not in it for charity.   BUT, they might want to take a moment and see how that worked out for NASCAR.  Not that having to buy premium channels to watch races was the only problem but it sure helped kill the fever for a lot of people.

      Get ready. Any bets in a few years the average Joe NFL fans aren't going to be able to watch their local teams, unless it's pay for view!  Sounds like their greasing the wheels now.  There are 5 international games this year! ☹️ "The NFL will play a regular season game in Madrid, Spain in 2025, as the NFL prioritizes global growth and expands the International Games to new cities and markets around the world."
