How do I scan the back of my hand?

Hey Dave B

It sounds like you know the area really well. I am just thinking about next may. I may have a tourney(bass) on pool 2. Just starting to get prepared.

If open to it could I reply back to you early may and ask for help.

thanks the addict

How are you having a bass tourney-it is catch and release?

[fishingaddict]

I was not aware it is catch and release. If so it would be a paper tourney.(measure and immediate release)

I'd say beware of Dave then he had some of the nicest smallies I'm seen on that stretch the other day.

these two books can be ordered through the dnr. The Pool 2 one is back-ordered through April. They show lots of info, including daymarkers and wing dams.

Here's a link to a pdf of the Upper Mississippi River. It's an awesome document. It starts at the Coon Rapids dam, and finishes in the state of Missouri. It also contains parts of the Minnesota and St. Croix Rivers.

I've driven over the hwy 13 bridge and the 494 bridge for years and always talked about giving it a try but never did it. I've always been too chicken to go because I've never been on the river and worry about hitting wing dams & other hidden stuff but I think this year I'm going to resolve to fish the river at least once or twice. It's just too good of an opportunity to not take advantage of it.

Anyway I hope you all enjoy the map.
