Co/Angler needed


Guest

Recommended Posts

Morris I agree with you in that there are alot of tournie anglers that are given everything. however most of those guys that I know are bass anglers. But if you know you work hard for something than that is all that matters, there will always be another guy out there that is given free stuff, has more time and what not. That is why I have just learned to be happy with what I have. as for this next year? I will not have any money for tournaments. and I am not getting a new boat this year. I am student teaching right now so I am not allowed to have a job. so I will not be able to afford to fish tournaments, and get my new boat. so I am not fishing them this year. it sucks but oh well what do ya do.

I know this thing has gotten off the subject, but if any of you guys still want to fish as a co let me know and I can put you in contact with a few boaters looking for co's.

Well morriscode, I guess I could say I am productive enough to own a nice pickup, a boat, and a nice lease on a townhome. Im happy, I think my boss is happy with me, and my family is with me for every tourney. I guess thats all I ask for in life. By the way, I dont go to school during most of the fishing season, so you can subtract the 45 hrs of school you so graciously added for me. MWG

Pig- you got it buddy, if I get another name of an angler you will get it if eye doesn't want it. Morris they may close this thing on us if it is just a p#ssing contest, I don't know how people get there stuff or why, frankly I don't care!

Things are getting terribly personal here, morris and leadcore if you have some personal issue please leave them out of this forum. Otherwise anyone interested in fishing as co-anglers post here and bigeyes can take your e-mail and maybe help you out.

Please stick to the topic guys!

P.S. Bigeyes, if you know of anyone else looking for a CO let me know.

Morriscode,

If you're not here to make friends, then there's not much sense in being here, is there?

I'd appreciate it if you'd clean up your language, too. This site is frequented by a lot of kids and there are already many sources of lude and vulgar phrases in our world....let's not make FishingMinnesota.com another source, okay?

Remember the motto of this site???

"We Have More Fun"

thanks bigeyes. i have been talkin with ted, he doesn't say much that is for sure lol. but i think i am registering tonight hopefully. maybe i can catch a few walleyes on mille lacs. i have never been there and chances are that will be my first time ever fishing it and probably catching a walleye over 3 pounds if i can. that is my goal this year is to surpass my biggest walleye, i know it isn't much either so dont laugh smile.gif.

pig_sticka and eye, you guys are welcome, I am glad it helped. Maybe we can meet at the event a little early and bs? Pig, My understanding is there is a field of 75 boats, angler is not allowed to bring tackle or rods/reels of any kind in the boat, and yes I think that 3 pound walleye record will be in jeperdy when you finaly get out on Mille Lacs. When conditions are right you can get a trip with a 7+ pound average! The size of your eyes has nothing to do with your fishing ability and everything to do with when and where you fish, so don't feel bad. I went years without breaking the 7 pound barrier, now break it many times a year, difference is I target big eyes!

Derek you are probably right about letting a 16'9" in, I thought about checking with them to see if they would bend on the 17' rule, I probably should have! I was actually wondering how you were doing yours because I was pretty sure you had a 16 lund pro angler or somthing simmiler. BTW spend last Sat. on Clearwater and as always, not one bite! We were in the clown show of houses at 50' se of the island. I just need to give up on that lake it hates me!

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!
    • PSU
      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
