january trip

[wmn luv me walleye fearme]

Theres about 4-6 of us heading up there in january. Was wondering if its any better fishing to try and go in the very begining of the month or to try and go closer to february? Also does anyone know if gibbons is still up and running? There website looks like its been shut down, and if not anyone know of some good sleepers in that same area that they would recomend? <BR>Thanks a lot<P>------------------<BR>To be the man you have to beat the man....Wooooooooo

Danny Gibbons sold his sleeper house business a couple years ago. Last winter he hired on with Sportsman's Lodge who for the first time entered the sleeper business. You can reach him thru Sportsman's Lodge. Good Luck. Ol'Sneller

Thanks for the info, I used gibbons last winter but maybe it had already beed sold to the sportsman lounge by then, If I can't get a hold of them would still probabaly looking to go out of baudette. But i'd give them a try<BR><P>------------------<BR>To be the man you have to beat the man....Wooooooooo

Early in the month of January is usually better than late in the month, depends where you're gonna be fishing though I spose.<P>fiskyknut

Just for clarification. Danny Gibbons did not sell to Sportsman's Lodge but to someone else whom, I believe is still operating as "Gibbons Sleepers" while Danny went to work for Sportsman's on the ice. In addition to the abovementioned operations most of the resorts now have sleepers. You might check the resort locator on this site. Good luck. Ol'Sneller

Try Schusters 10 of us went out of there last year had a blast. We stayed 2 of the new sleepers they had just built very nice. Were going back this jan.

I would say January is usually better than Feb but we've done just as good in Feb some years. Guess that's what fishing is all about, trying to hit the good bite. Sportsman's Sleepers are real Nice!!<BR>If you can get in there I'd say go for it! They do what they can for you and the houses are in great shape with a lot of items included.<BR>Nic

I just booked a weekend with Bryant (Gibbin's) on Wednesday for the second year in a row. They have nice sleepers and Bryant does about anything to get you fish.

I would try Lyons Sleepers. They have always treated my family with respect and always have put us on the fish

Thanks for the help, I ended up getting a sleeper from schusters for 1/7 and 1/8(couldn't find a number to the sportsmans lounge at all) It does seem pretty cool that for the most part all people have to say about any of these resorts are good things (flipped through some old stuff as well) Can't wait to get out there<BR><P>------------------<BR>To be the man you have to beat the man....Wooooooooo
