Oh, I'm around...been deer hunting Bemidji/Turtle River area and then some Pheasant hunting. Have a young dog so I'm trying to expose her to as many birds as I can. I've exposed her to a 40" er last weekend though...now if I can keep her from wanting to pee on the boat it'll all be good...

I take many trips down to the land of corn in the spring. Some good fishing, It is the only place I know that you can be fishing in 40' of water and have your hat knocked of by tree branches in the middle of the lake. First trip down to brushy creek I thought I had hit the twilight zone, casting around the tops of 30'trees.

I've never been down there and don't know if I ever will. But I was noticing that the musky season never closes in Iowa except for on East and West Okoboji and Spirit. Those lakes are closed from December 1 to about the middle to end of May. Anyone know the reason for this? Are those the only 3 lakes in the state that have any kind of natural reproduction?
