Who is totally stoked for opener this weekend?

[thrax]

I know I am! Been looking at/getting stuff ready all week. Lots of new equipment and stuff to try out, new things to learn, and hopefully some slime time in the boat! Geez I am full of adrenaline already and its still only Wednesday night! Good luck to everyone who gets a chance to get out this weekend!

I sure am if i can get work off, no high hopes think the water temps a tad cold yet, but i wont be throwin any oversized stuff, just smaller, hope everyone gets a big one, Good luck!

Last weekend in WI was a complete bust for me. I'll be in Madison this weekend so I'm going to try for one from shore, but I really think it'll be nothing more than practice casting.

[Scoot]

Not me- I'll be at a wedding in the Cities. I'm taking Monday off though and I'm looking forward to that.

[porterhouse]

I'm ready! Can't fish until Monday. I'm working the weekend.

Good luck everyone!

I will be out saturday am for sure. Probably throwing small stuff as mentioned above due to cooler water temps. I do want to try out the double dogs to see how they look though...

I'm not as pumped as I would be in the fall for perfect conditions but I am pumped to hang out with friends at thier campground, hit a bar or 2 and have a great weekend! Throwing some big baits is just a bonus.

Fighting a bass to the boat and watching it nearly get smoked by a muskie doesn't help anything...The water was 63-65 so not as bad as I was thinking a couple weeks ago.

[SmellEsox]

Yeah, I had a muskie chase a bass jig to the boat on Sunday. I'm not one that really gets too cranked up about opener, I have to miss it anyways. My 11-year old has a double header that day. Maybe I'll get out Sunday.

Actually it sounds like we may be renting a boat for the day. My friends kid will also be making her very first fishing trip. Not sure what sort of reaction she'd have to a good sized fish.

Totally stoked here, ties with walleye opener. Got my gear already to go, now its clock watching. Good luck everyone and lets have a blast!

[MuskieJunkie]

I'll be setting the alarm for 4am, heading to Minnetonka in my friends new Pro V until we get chased of by the 30' boats churing up the water and milfoil. Then head to another undecided metro lake.

[RuKiddingMe]

why waste 4 hours?

LOL - Will be 5+ hrs by the time you get to the launch and on the water.

Haven't even gotten my stuff out of the basement yet. Why kill yourself obsessing about it when there are other fish to be caught in the meantime???

Because catching small fish is boring and the only other big fish, flatheads are sluggish right now.

I guess I'm like Sir Mix-A-Lot, I like 'em round and BIG.

[JBone]

So stoked for my first opener!

[neptune]

Good luck on Tonka but watch out for the 100+ bass boats running around for the Minnetonka Bass Classic tomorrow.

[Shoot2Kill]

In anticipation of just getting out on the water again, seeing the sunrise and set, playing with the new GPS some more, trying the new bucktails I tied up, time has officially stopped where I work.

Good luck to all of ya!

[MuskieJunkie]

I'll be setting the alarm for 4am
