Found Tackle Box

[IceHawk]

Found a tackle box up on Lake Osakis this morning. It wasn't in any of the community spots or I wouldn't of found it with amount of guys up there. LOL!  Wow you would think the Caughren point area was the only place to catch and sight fish.They should of been there a week and a half ago when we found them fresh    Glad I have better spots where social or should I say solo distancing was happening If anyone lost one out there off the beaten path I found it feel free to PM me with the contents and Ill get it back to you somehow. If nobody claims it I'll donate it to a kid (and No not you Smurfey ) to get him a good start into ice fishing some good stuff in there!

Hope you can get that box back ro it rightful owner iceyhawk! 

 

Not all of us spend every day on that same lake... so we fish where the crowd is sometimes 

Take yesterday for example, Tommy and I hit 7 spots between us, picking up junk fish with a good one now and then pretty much everywhere.... so by mid day I was wore out from walking and drilling... We too opted to fish the point area... btw also a lot of junk fish there ... infact that whole noth end has been a lot of junk since early ice.  Skinny fish, lots of parisites and some strange greyish mold in the meat of two fish I tossed in the garbage... Big O really isnt what it used to be

Well, I know whose tackle box it isn’t

I very much congratulate you on wanting to find the owner and getting it back to him , not all would surely do that , much to be said about your ethics , well done !  I hope the owner does indeed get ahold of you but would suggest the returning to him waits until after all settles down . With the shelter in place order that begins tonight , the owner going to your place to get it , or you going to his place to get it to him  becomes impossible to do as that surely is not necessary travel what so ever .. I guess if you could somehow package it up in a box after sanitizing it , place sufficient postage on it and only if you have mail service at home , because a trip to the post office would not be able to be done with shelter in place , then it could be sent to him , but with that said he would have to have direct mail to his house service also because the same would hold true for him not being able to go to his post office to retrieve it ...  I hope you all do your part .  If the owner never reaches out to you your plan to give it to a kid sometime down the road sounds like a splendid answer to this dilemma..

Hopefully I do  find the owner it had some good stuff in there. It would be nice to see someone get it back we have all been there on lost or forgot a item it stinks! 

 

HMM  but you do on others didn't you just have a photo and post up couple weeks ago about how you fished hard for 5 weeks on the same lake  best local bite you've seen  and had to be in a certain cabbage bed.with numerous 9's released  LOL!   Glad you and Tommy dialed some in yesterday was a beutifull day better weather then todays up there. Sight fishing is a hoot! I thought  the gills were real thick this year infact  bunch of us commented on it. That grey mold your talking about can't say I saw it in any of my fish all winter up there wonder what it was ? Has me concerned but never heard any of guys I know that fished there mention it. Did find a couple with worms but very very few. I would beg to differ on Osakis having all junk fish on that N end it was a strong year out there. Where we were fishing by ourselves was about as good as you could get. Especially out of the bay and in the main lake.  I know few other guys that had great bites out there some you know.  Definitely not the numbers of 10's like years past that I will agree but still plenty of 9 inch plus fish and some sumo craps. Tossed back 2 over 14 this year.  She might not be what she once was but I love it!  Looking forward to open water out there for sure!

We were going to indian leg wrestle but opted out with social distancing going on. It honestly didn't take much twisting or convincing. LOL! I'm always up to fish

All it takes is a hot bite and photos to prove it.
