Anyone going to Lake Of The Woods for the govenor's opener I know every opener in the last 5-6 years have yielded some very big catch and releases in four mile bay pictures for thought.

We used to hit Cass and Kitchi at opener 30 years ago. We got older and weaker and couldn't take the colder, rainy weather anymore - although there were plenty of 85 degree days in May which we spent overboard to cool off.

Plus our kids got older and we had to wait for school to be over so now we wait until June but it is still Cass and Kitchi for us. (Kitchi mostly for snakers though).

Ok lets get some of them famous stories in here!!! Tactics and tips! Or anything we may have to offer... We all know May is right around the corner, and im dancing in my pants for opener! A goood story of mine is just getting there and fishing. Every year i love getting up at 2 in the morning and going to bed at 6 the last night. Then packing up and the boats already hooked up. Pulling out of the driveway and driving there (St. Louis River, Boyscout Landing). Nobody else awake, first ones there every year, get the boat in beach it go back to truck and sleep for an hour then have breakfast in the truck, go out to boat (still dark). Then we head up the river trolling rapalas trying to stay warm, claim our spot and jig down troll up the rest of the day!!!

The best tips I can give is have fun and go pick up the book presision trolling. This will increase your odd by far.

Insula,it`s a little work but it is worth it

[Ranckenstuff]

Vermilion....Oh Yeah!

[kingkidfisher4431]

What about the river... Lets get some tabs on people who are going to the river and those who are go look at the thread called River on Opener!

[SuddenlySummer]

Would you call the WhiteFish Chain a river? That's where I'm headed.

[waterwolff]

No I would call the Whitefish Chain a reservoir and depending upon ice out you should have fun

[early007]

Tough to beat the Brainerd/Nisswa area! I'll be working the bait shop Saturday morning but Saturday night I'll be trolling Raps on Gull or Round. Early in the week I usually slip on over to Mille Lacs for a little rigging on the north end with a Sportland Jumbo Leech. Can't hardly wait, less than 2 months away!

No sense of Humor? Seriously I usually fish Clearwater in Wright Co. Plan on gettin there early though the parking at the launches fills quick. Most of the Walleye guys there are pretty close to the vest as to where, How deep, and what there biting.
