Starting to get Ideas for the Hard Season!!!

[bassNspear]

Ya i know its not even September, but I think its only right for use to start talking about where we are going to do the 2 get togethers this year. I know we had a post that we were talking about it. Lets get some ideas, and ill add the lakes into a poll in the middle of October, and we will go from there.

So start shooting out lakes, and we can get them on a roll. Please copy them over, so we can keep it simple for people to see what we have suggested for lakes. Copy the lakes and numbers please.

1. Winnie

my ideas, maple lake wright county. winnie, leech, or merckmans bathtub. hehehe.

[bassNspear]

you and the bath tub. i just dont get you sometimes.

[Gordie]

what dates are we talking about?

1. winni

I'll second winni

[glenn57]

bns, see getting closer posts, you will then understand only i noticed its elwoods bathtub not merkmans.

[Gordie]

thanks glenn57 I did notice but I said I'd leave it alone

[bassNspear]

i got it, thanks

lets get this back on track please. we need to get a few lakes figured out so we can plan it and people can put it on the calendar. Planning to two this year

[glenn57]

bns, what gives you the idea we done run off the track? we gave you our imput,did we not.

[merkman]

I need to do some research.

A clear lake,

Stocked with walleye in the last 3 years,

Near the metro,

With good structure,

Hummm... off to the lake finder

Or we could just pin BNS down and I could sit on him until he gives up one of his "secret" lakes.

P.S. This year it is steak on the menu... not sushi like last year.lol

[BigWadeS]

all I know is I want to attend a spearing get together this year, not only to learn more about it but to build more relationsips within FM

[bassNspear]

your more then willing to come and hang out. i have room in my house if i dont have others in it, and im sure there is going to be others that will have room themselves.

Dude, i dont have any secret lakes at all.

[Gordie]

sylvia/twin

what dates are we thinking about?

I screwed up my back on friday and I hope it doesnt effect my spearing season

[bassNspear]

the dates dont matter as much to me.

sometime after Dec 13th and then again in in Late January

[Gordie]

sounds good to me and lets try to do it on a saturday that way we can stay longer and not worry about work on monday

[bassNspear]

we can do that. I dont have a problem with any day.

[glenn57]

i really think we should try maple lake by the town of maple lake. theres a dnr sign on the acess off of hwy 55 that says please take your limit of nords. if thats not an invite i dont know what is. just my .02 cents worth.

[merkman]

For the out of the metro choice:

I vote for Lake Winnibigoshish in Dec or very early Jan.

There are many resorts there that rent dark houses

Get a bunch together of people together and rent a cabin.

People could have their choice of renting a heated predrilled darkhouse or bring your own darkhouse.

Bunk up with others or rent your own cabin.

Do a google search for Lake Winnibigoshish darkhouse rental and there are quite a few that come up.

[Gordie]

I like merkmans Idea, make a weekend of it. have a big BBQ on the lake or at the resort. I was thinking of BBQing a hind quarter of venison any ways.

I also am going to take up the offer the DNR posted at maple lake this winter.

[bassNspear]

we could go to highbank resort. there a sponsor of FM on winn

[Gordie]

nothing like staying at a sponserd resort. got love that

[bassNspear]

thats what i was thinking. I will check into it and see what i can come up with.

[glenn57]

i agree, staying there should be first option. id have a tough decision to make, we have a cabin 40 minutes away from highbanks and we go threw there when we fish winnie during hard water season.

[bassNspear]

why dont we all stay there!!

[glenn57]

if i would outright own the place i would of suggested it right away but seeing as my mother pays most the expenses shes still the boss and we all wouldnt like her answer. NO! sorry man.

[bassNspear]

i understand.

Im looking into a few different options for it to see if it would work.
