Just looking for a little info regarding water levels on the Red south of the border.
How much has she risen due too the rain in the FM region or for that matter in GF etc?

Stu I am watching it now. We should see a big rise soon...we got Boo-Koo rain the past few days on the basin. My yard is a swamp Eh.

Check this site to monitor the levels.

Stu, Water levels ten miles south of Grand Forks have went up 8 ft. I'm guessing that Fri or Sat it will be in Grand Forks. If we get anymore rain you might see more water. I'm guessing that eight feet here won't mean much by the time it gets to the wide red up there. I know that water in Fargo takes seven days to reach Grand Forks. So I'm guessing its about the same from Grand Forks to Selkirk. Hope I helped you out.

I made a trip to Cabela's this morning and the river looked a bit high, but not to bad! I don't know if it'll rise more or not. if it doesn't rise anymore, I wouldn't think the water levels would be a problem.
However, thats JUST MY thoughts on it?

Good Luck Fishing....

Appreciate the info guys!
I'm trying to get a handle on when to put my docks back in! I'd hate to put them in and next week or so pull them AGAIN! That really gets "old" if you know what I mean.
If the river rises it's liable to takes its toll on the Cats Incredible Tourney, hope that won't be the case.

Thanks again!

What does the flow and the levels look like up on your end Stu?

No significant rains here recently so the Central Red has leveled off to a bit higher then average summer levels.

I am stocking gear for next week and was wondering how much lead to tote, and cork'n do-Dads. Are you sitting preat on lead yet?

Just received a interesting package from friend over in MN. Some bait scent sprays that you and Canuck just might find usefully. Canucks favorite flavor is there, and a few more interesting ones too. I'll bring a selection up for you to check out.

Thanks Stu,

Ed,

Have a great trip up North. Be sure and give me a report when you get back. My bro and cousin are up now and my dad's going to be up in a few days with a crew from LOW. I'd suspect that you'll find plenty of critters willing to cooperate.
If you see my dad (you may have to recognize him by the fishing rods in his boat- you haven't met him yet have you?) be sure and say hello.
Have fun!

Thanks Scoot!

I'll be hitting the road here shortly. I will keep an eye out for you Pop and the crew.

Who are the other guys up there now, what do they drive so I can look for them? Maybe I can raid their hopper stash if they have any left when they leave. LOL!

Drop me a call Scoot on my cell number. 701-640-9986.

Things to do yet so I better get a Hop'n Eh.

I'll fill you in when I return.

      Heading up to LV a week from today with the kids. Any advice for us? Staying on the West side but open to traveling if the weather permits.   The way the last few weeks have gone, might stay for good!!!

      Do have Wi-Fi in your house. Your going to need that to work with any of the cameras that send a signal and video to your phone.  Hardwire is the best but battery power workers well for about two months then you have to pull them and recharge them.  It is nice to sit on a beach in Key West and keep an eye on your house when gone! 👌

      With all the craziness in the world I’m looking at getting an outdoor security camera setup for my home. Anyone have ideas on what works well without a huge cost  and easy to do . Or is it better to go with a company to set it up.  We have recently had copper thefts in the area at farmers fields and bin sites and I know it will only gat worse as these things always do. I probably want something that hooks up to my phone as well and wondering if there is a good one with either battery life or if wired is better. Any thoughts are welcome.

      Aren't they the ones that ran into problems about illegal bait? Anyone know how that turned out?

      You launch on Moose Lake to get to the motorized portage. It's called Prairie portage. To get to the portage you put in at Moose Lake. From Moose you go into Newfound Lake. From Newfound you go into Sucker Lake. On Sucker is where Prairie portage is. There is a dock on the American side and on the Canadian side there is big sign welcoming you to Canada. Latourell's Resort runs the portage and the cost for the portage is $40 for a round trip.

      Will that blond haired kid have that cool little orange boat in the show this weekend? Saw him driving around by Muskego Point a few times this summer.

      Nope, there are parts of Basswood that allow motors.   Entry is from Fall Lake, and there is (I think) a motorized portage.   It is really popular in the spring...
