Opener Destination?

[Juan Grande]

Where is everyone going this weekend? I'll be in Zimmerman area, but am thinking about making a run up to Mille Lacs on Sunday or Monday for some smallies. Will they be on beds?

[Cecil]

They are and will be on beds. I will be on Leech starting Friday.

[Daze Off]

Saturday morning Mississippir River for smallies! Wahooo!

[bassfshin24]

I will be at a wedding in orange city iowa :-| Not a very happy fisherman!!!! but i will be back sunday afternoon and then will be heading right up to mille lacs for the smallies :-)

[Nick Kuhn]

It appears I'm not the only one with friends who like to ruin a perfectly good holiday weekend with a wedding. That was a couple year ago though, so this weekend I'll find myself once again over the border, fishing for the longer and skinnier brown variety of fish on their opener.

[Craigums]

I might take out my dinky aluminum on mille lacs if its not windy, whats the best way to target smallies this time of year? Are they going to be near isolated rock piles?

[TonkaBass]

I think I am gonna do some lake hoping this year. Annandale area and west... Should be fun though.

[Juan Grande]

I'm no expert Craigums but I'm guessing people will say shallow areas with a sand/boulder mix for smallies this weekend.

I might have an open seat if you want to join me. Not sure which day yet, probably the one with least forecasted wind.

[Reid G]

It's always nicer in Spicer. That's where I'll be.

[Juan Grande]

Reid,

Do you ever fish smallies on Nest Lake?

[goblueM]

i'll probably be out on a MPLS lake, haven't decided which one. hopefully not too many other folks will be out

/i'll keep dreaming, maybe that'll make it so

[BigGrassBass]

Waconia for me. Unless its windy or there is lots of boat traffic. Then I'll just hit one of the smaller lakes in the area.

[JBMasterAngler]

Snake river. No better way to stay cool on a hot day than to throw on the flip flops and wade for smallies

[Deitz Dittrich]

somewhere in the Chisago Lakes area.

[Larson15]

[Rick Reisewitz]

[Deitz Dittrich]

[g_anoka]

Clearwater, now the that season is open I hope I can still catch them.

[mamohr686]

Pre-fishing for the big bass bonanza tourney on the horseshoe chain for me! I would rather go hog hunting around alex though.

[NTW]

They are and will be on beds. I will be on Leech starting Friday.

Whereabouts? I'll be on leech also.

[Irish]

Either Sugar Lake in Annandale or Chisago area lakes for me.

[eyehead]

It's always nicer in Spicer. That's where I'll be.
