JohnMickish Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Believe it or not open water is going to be here in the next 4 to 6 weeks. Where are you going to go first? Anybody planning on going to Iowa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattL Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I'll probably swing over to pool 4 in a couple weeks to get my open water fix. Still chasing walleyes through a hole in the ice, but that's coming to a close soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creepworm Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Small river outside of town generally opens up early and can be some good fishing so I will probably hit that first, while I wait for the lakes to open up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick in Mud Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Pool 4 for an early fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPN LIPS Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Pool 4 if the weather warms up a bit and based on the way this winter is pool 4 maybe the only open water till june. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMickish Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Pool 4 will probably by my first few outings too, but sometimes that zoo isn't worth the trouble. I'm thinking I may head to Iowa a few weeks before the MN opener to get some lake action in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattL Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Got out for the first time of the year today. Only 2 other rigs at Evert's. It was darn cold out there with the wind and I even started to miss having a dual console boat on a couple runs. The Alumacraft is looking good with icicles hanging off her though.

gloomiseye Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Probably the Des Moines river and then pool 4. Hoping for my first trip to the rainy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nhamm Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Did pool 4 March 1, soon as the ramps open over north side be chasing channels on the river, opener have to keep local due to kids stuff and still try to get up to the Coon rapids dam in the boat at midnight. No matter where it is the snow can't melt fast enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turk Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 St. Croix River opens soon. Looking forward to it! Cranks and crawlers is the ticket traditionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
