I think you forgot BEER. grin.gif

Oh and another cooler... not fun to sit and wait for beer to get cold. Do not forget the can coozy fingers can get cold hangin onto cold beer, look for one that has a catchy phrase on it... Then you can look at your beer holder and laugh... then you'll laugh everytime you get a beer... grin.gifgrin.gif

Something to go potty in, not fun to try and balance on the back of the boat, after having beer. shocked.gif

Hope this helps! cool.gif

Good calls. Headlamp and fingertip less neoprene gloves are in the tackle box.

How about winter jacket and bibs. Just becuase it's 70 and sunny when you're packing up the truck doesnt mean it won't be 30 and rainy when you're out on the water. I learned that one the hard way.

      As crazy as that might sound, May 18th isn’t a bad guess.  We were on the lake yesterday and had somewhere around 30” of solid ice with some snow on top.  This is hard January-type ice.  No honeycombing, no chipping or slush.  In fact, my Dewalt hammer drill couldn’t take it.  It’s dead.   Another foot of snow on the way this week?  That won’t help.

      depends on the lake, vermillion may 18th

      Try the area where Minnehaha Falls runs into the river up to the ford dam. I've just used jig and fathead. Been several years since I've fished down there, but saw a lot of people shore fishing there. Pretty snaggy down there.

      Never tried it down there, sounds like fun. Let us know how you did.  👍

      Entries sure rolled in when I offered the case of beer.  We could meet at my Stuntz Bay boathouse if that would work.  Close to the landing, could anchor in front of the boathouse, or could park your vehicle at by the boathouse.  Maybe we could require the winner to be present, LOL.

      Thinking about trying pool 2 (from shore) for the first time tomorrow morning, ideally looking for walleye. Anyone know any decent spots or what kind of baits I should use?   Thanks in advance

      I know the owner.  In fact we rode snowmobiles together a couple days after the fire.  He lost most of his belongings.  Sounds like it was electrical.

      Supply chain issues....

      I drove by the spot I thought it was on the snowmobile and couldn't find it.
    • MikeG3Boat
