The Gov fishing


MT Net

Recommended Posts

Just seen Kent Hrbeck Outdoors on TV. Jesse the Gov was on, carp fishing on the Mississippi. Kind of a neat show. Funny to see our former Governor in some sort of braided beard deal.

He is a odd duck! President? Oh man! crazy.gifOne thing is at least he is his own person and dont seem to give a crap about what others think.

that is what i really liked about him. he was definately not a politician. we need to find a president that doesn't care about party politics.

I didnt live in the state when he was in office, what did he do? Good things, bad? Can you sum it up?

Chad711,Here's my take on Jesse. He got us the light rail (good/bad, depends on your outlook), he was always in the news for some reason and if you where in Jesse's inner circle he was a great gov. If you wherent in the circle he was just a figurehead. My 2 1/2 cents.

I think he was going for the Lou Albono (sp) look. Ya know, All Star Wrestler with body piercing and paper clips.

I guess I was set back when he said he was a gov that "talked and listened to the people" or something like that. Thinking how he slipped out the back door and did the Navy Seal Extraction out of hostile territory via helicopter during the State Employee Strike Talks to escape a whole lot of questions came to mind.

All of us poor college students sure appreciate the hike in tuition rates he was a part of. We're still getting fallout from that, even though he's long gone. I definitely agree that we could use more candidates that share 'jesse the body's lack of party affiliations, but i also believe that we could use someone a little more intelectual than 'jesse the mind' grin.gif

      Just gotta use some common sense and have some ice safety gear.  If I hadn’t duffed the shot on the buck on the last day of rifle season, I’d probably be on the ice this weekend also.  Instead, I’ll still be chasing some vennie.

      just seen a report on fartbook the pines resort on winnie had 8-9 inches in the bay.  they did warn any further out the ice has not been checked, like over by the river!!!!!

      Looks like Vermilion froze overnight on Monday, which would make it officially frozen Tuesday, December 3.  I am going out to McKinley Park Friday morning to check out the ice conditions and possibly fish.

      Looking at the webcams, I don't see any open water. Is Big Bay completely frozen over yet?   The forecast looks like a few inches of snow Sunday/Monday followed by temps below zero.

      I'd say lakes under 500 acers less than 40 ft deep. They're targeting panfish. We're making ice everyday. Windy today, terrible roads, lots of people decided that they needed to drive fast and that unfortunately led to some vehicles doing some incidental off roading

      Falls gone Gim, time to move to ice fishin!!👍

      Fall was like a month long.  Maybe even less.  I'm quite a bit south of you but I can recall fishing in short sleeves in late October.  Less than a month later, prior to Thanksgiving, winter arrived.   September and most of October were way more like summer than fall.  Kind of too bad, I like fall.

      is that 5-6 inches on smaller lakes or ........... bigger water bodies. i'm guessing knowing the lakes i fish or would like to should maybe have more. i will be seeing a former coworker who livws of hwy 6 north of deer river saturday, hoping he's got a good report.   he's a neighbor and good friend to CO Fairbanks so should get some good intel. i know Mike well too!

      It's definitely winter, we have about 4-6 inches of fluffy snow on the ground which has predominantly blown off the ice. I have several friends out on the ice as of late 5-6 inches of ice. I work the next two days, will get the gear together Saturday and go Sunday. I'd be completely fine if we have an early spring like earlier this year.
