no boat but I did get asked to guide media rep shore fishing the river. turned it down cuz dont want to sit someone all day on a spot. that can get boring. :) I like to move around and hit a few spots when I shore fish. A few guys from a club I am in will be guiding on the river with River Pros. None of them are guiding the Gov that I know of. @BassThumb.   you interested in taking somebody out?  I can get you contact info if you are. you too @Rick G  if interested.  700 bucks worth of goodies to guides. :)

I had Carlson as a biology teacher. He's such a tool. My dad loves him. Jerry never stopped talking out of his a**.

What sort of goodies? I can only bring the boat out in the stretch north of the dam.

We will find out in April or even early May. My bet would be Dave Genz, couldn't find a better river guide for the area. After all, it is his backyard. Lives in River Haven just south of town. One thing for sure, it will be one h E LL of a logistics nightmare for our area. @BassThumb contact info sent.

I was a Media Rep in 2010 for T-Paw's opener on Kab and have gotten an invitation back ever since.  Maybe I should do it again this year?  Well, only if I could pick my guide. :grin:

 

They would be blessed to get you St. Cloud guys involved!

 

FWIW, it was a great time and an experience I'm glad I took advantage of.  They treat you very well.

I try to avoid the circus of opening weekend.  This will be a super circus I'm sure.  Will be hard to find that many folks with their Captains license, although I think you can still guide under another guides if you work for them.  It's required for the Mississippi. 

Posted

Is a license still required if you're not getting "paid" with cash money?  I think it's pretty much all volunteer but people get stuff for participating from sponsors.

that is the deal that I know of.

Jerry is not guiding the Gov. He doesnt know who is. Still looking for guides if anyone is interested. 

Posted

I would do it but it would cost them some real nice gear, gonna need a few new St Croix rods, humminbird, and a few other spendy things I haven't thought of yet.....

Posted

But really I'd take a guy or two out. I fi h that river all year long and a bunch of local lakes. I'd be in if someone gives them my info. Or pm me with theirs.

info sent :)

Just wanted to inform anyone that is interested in participating on the water, "Hosting", a guides license is not required. Also if your only goal is to get "free goodies" you shouldn't even apply. My guess for Dave Genz hosting the Gov. was debunked today for several reasons....

I dont think anyone in this group would do it just for the goodies. It would be a fun thing to do. 

Posted

It was an experience.

 

And I mean that in good way.

Yeah I was only talking smack about the free stuff. I really would enjoy taking people out fishing on the river. Heck I do it all the time, and just love to fish with different people. Plus I think it would be fun.

      What a difference a day makes.  Fishing was very slow today.  Biggest I caught was only 13 inches.  Marked a lot of fish but couldn't get very many to bite.   The wind was very strong today and did cause a little bit of drifting, but travel is still good on the latke.  Just avoid the snow banks and drifts.  Saw one house get pulled off the lake, and didn't see any new houses come out before I left the lake at 4pm.  Lots of snowmobiles and trailers in Tower.  At least the city and lake will be busy with those.   Good luck fishing if you go out the last weekend of the winter season.

      Ice condition didn't change much in the last week as shown in the McKinley Park photo from today.  The holes in my house froze all the way down in the last six days; 40 inches of ice now.  I drilled my two holes 24 inches and cleared the shavings out before reaching water.  Much cleaner way in a permanent house.   Fishing was pretty good today.  Caught two 24" walleyes, including the 5#-7oz fatty pictured.  Also caught a 19 incher.  Best bite was from 11 to noon.  Much better action with chubs than shiners today.  Never tried the pike suckers I had.   Good luck fishing the last weekend this winter.  Going to be very windy Friday, but drifting shouldn't b a problem since there is no loose snow on the lake.  Saturday and Sunday look to be very warm.  Still about 35 houses left out from McKinley Park.

      Too bad she’s after big game when she leaves home.  Your one eyed trouser trout might not lure her in. 😉
