Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Yes, this is very early, but what the heck!

Just so you can get it on your calender, my 3rd Annual Trout Day will be held on April 26th at Forestville/Mystery Cave State Park in SE MN.

If your coming from a ways out, might want to call and make reservations for a camping spot!
Agenda and more details to come!!!!!

PS> for those of you who attended last years event I am looking for an evaluation. What can I add, change or omit???(other than the weather!LOL)

Merry Christmas!

Hey Rennenberg,
For sure there will be at least two seminars one on fly-fishing and one on spin fishing.
Haven't heard back from the boys down at the Lanesboro fisheries office yet.

I would like to create an impromptu hour or two of actual fishing into the day if we run dry of DNR assistance etc. MINN AQUA can't committ until a lot later, in response to the current state funding situation.

If there any ideas for topics or agenda items people would like to see, I am all ears(I guess eyes for the internet eh?).

There will be enough to do to keep everyone entertained until the door prizes are handed out at the end of the day.
(Need to be in attendance to win any prize)

Thanks for asking! Been busy with my other job and a newborn, so a little behind right now.

Keep the rods bendin'!!!

Rennenberg and all,

Just got off the phone with the Lanesboro fisheries people! A tradition of Trout Day has been the electro-fishing demonstration.
They have committed again for tis years event!!
Along with the demo they are lanning providing a biological perspective on trout.
So bring the questions people!

smellzalilfishee,

I'm glad you asked that. This year Steve K. from the Lanesboro office suggested we move this years demonstration to a new localle.

THe area we tried the first couple years was a matter of convenience, thus a section of stream not well suited for larger fish. However, fish were gathered and the demonstration successsful.

SO this year we will be either hoofing it or driving a tad to a better stretch of stream, hoping for larger trout!!

I was blessed with a new girl. I now have one of each. Couldn't feel any bettter about that!!

Look forward to meeting ya!!!

If I am busy that day, who cares, make sure you pull me aside for some fishing talk!!!!

I am pleased to announce that Kathy Beaulieu from the DNR's MINN AQUA will be presenting again at this years Trout Day.

Her program is geared toward educating our youth in outdoor related topics.
SHe teaches a broad range of topics, so part of my job will be to pick a couple.(yet to be determined).

So yes, as always, Kids are welcome at Trout Day! Most of the educational materials will be for children from grade 3 on up! However, if you want to bring younger feel free!!!

For those who attended last year, did you like tying flies? That is an option, not sure yet.

See ya all on the 26th of APril

Keep the rods bendin'!!!!

Cherndog,

Are you referring to camping in the park? Head to the DNR HSOforum, go to State Parks, then click on Forestville/Mystery Cave State Park.

Otherwise, no registration is needed to attend Trout Day. Just show up!

See ya there!!!!
