Might be a bit to soon, but oh well.....

[bassNspear]

maybe we should start thinkin of some lakes we would like to do this year again. GOing to have 2 of them again this year, so lets think of ideas for get to gators!

[Laska]

Up for anything around the cities in december, and I'm free in february

[bassNspear]

im really thinking about doing a 2-3 dayer this winter for a change. What you all think of something like that?

[Fish Toys]

BNS it’s not too early to start planning. Start early and you might get more people to come and make suggestions. I’m so busy I don’t get much time to check the forums.

Its never to early Bro I will be up for a trip this season I hope that I can go to your new years spot this year.

[Laska]

2-3 day trip would be ok, ya need to get some polls going soon, come a month from now I won't have much time available to take off schedule will be full, winnie on the 3rd river flow would be cool nice resort up there. Plenty of pike from what I hear.

[bassNspear]

ill get something up within the next few weeks. Just want you all to start throwing stuff out there.

If we are going to do a 2-3 dayer, i would like to do it early in the year rather then later, but whatever works for most of you. The more people the better ya know.

Ideas?

[merkman]

winnie on the 3rd river flow would be cool nice resort up there.

+1

Lotsa people up there that are more than willing to have us too!!!

I like that idea.

[Laska]

And I think they have large party size cabins

[bassNspear]

i will look into that, i think there is a few sponsors that are on winnie that might be able to help us out!

[BOUNCED]

I would be game for Winnie, schedule permitting.

[bassNspear]

so looks like we can book winnie................. lets start throwing dates out there??

[Laska]

Week before xmas, 17,18,19 or 18-19 I think I still have a brochure from the people who rent darkhouses on winnie. Figured week before xmas was enough time to have good ice up there or the week before that I'm game. They have 8 person cabins for $190 a night so 2 nights is $380 divided by 8 is less than $50 a person for the whole weekend, darkhouse rentals look like $40 a day if ya need

[bassNspear]

what place is this?

[Gordie]

I will try and make it what ever date you guys throw out there.

as I have always said: have spear will travel

[merkman]

I will have an empty seat in the truck elwood.

what place is this?

Here are some of the places I have talked to in the past.

High Banks - HSO Sponsor - does not rent darkhouses (as of last year)

Dixon Lake - Full support for darkhouse spearers - Not sure if they are a HSO sponsor? Very Willing to work with a group of us.

Little Winnie Resort - Full support for darkhouse spearers - Not sure if they are a HSO sponsor?

[Laska]

Dixon resort was the pricing I talked o the guys last year at the ice show big pike out there too, if we decide on a place to go I can makethe phone calls or who ever gonna prolly want to reserve something I have myself n heidi so there's 2 plus however many others are going, thinking of making 1st 2nd n 3rd place deaks for the gtg this year if that's cool with you guys plus the nord lord trophy elwoods got

[Gordie]

hows that gonna work doesnt seem like any one spears anything at the GTG's any more cept me I'm gonna have a lotta hardware to take home

[merkman]

plus however many others are going

Laska you can count me in no mater what happens... GTG or not.

If the plans don't firm up here in the near future I will be staying at Dixons.

[merkman]

Looks like your gonna have to make one as big as Elwoods ego!!!

Maybe previous contender or his wife will come out of the wood work?

[Laska]

Lmao you guys, merk I want to stay at dixons too, I can't make a decoy big enough for the nord lords ego, I figured with the decoys we have 3 days to spear fish other than one like normal so I'm sure we will spear some fish! Merk I wish that nord would came into the hole more at the last gtg!

[merkman]

Merk I wish that nord would came into the hole more at the last gtg!

He did come into the hole... who knows how long he was there. lol

A little less talkin and a little more paying attention it woulda been a different story. or if my sucker woulda had a hook in it we woulda had him..... but that's not how I roll... lol

They only come around when you don't expect them.

He will live to fight another day, I didn't clean any fish that night, and we have a good story to talk about. I'm OK with that.

[Laska]

Same here it was priceless and I have never seen a northern move as fast as that one did, I gotta make some cheaters one of the shows ill have to let ya borrow it for the gtg, how's ur wife feel bout winnie or haven't ya said nothin yet? She's gotta get a spear in her hands this year! Another thing you makin the park rapids decoy show its Nov 20th; ill be there with heidi.

[BOUNCED]
