Jarrid Houston Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 If we get the temps they say we are going to be getting, it is quite possible.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 51 on Saturday!!! All we need is a little open water and a lot of wind. I'm giving the long range forecast another 5-10 days before I get serious about getting the boat out of storage. Got some work that needs to be done on the boat and the trailer, then....anchors away!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am planning on getting the boat wet for the virgin trip of the year at the end of the month. Granted it will be on the Rainy River in northern MN, open water is open water. Can't wait!

Time to get the summer stuff ready! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider4ever Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Neighbors at the cabin are thinking ice-out this week on Big Minnie. I love tannin-stained water in the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarrid Houston Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 How was the fishing Nasty Nate? Fishing from a kayak would be a lot of fun.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nastynate Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Didn't make it out on the 31st,but did go for a bit on sunday. Ended up going to Wascot instead hoping it would be warmer! Was about 65 and little wind when we got there,fished a little but mostly just paddled around. Never caught a fish! Wind picked up about an hour in,had to stay close to shore,no fish around shore.With all the family stuff this weekend prolly wont get out until next week. My first ever rod build is on the dryer right now! Will post some pics when its done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
