Anyone heading down to Iowa for the muskie opener? My brother and I are going down to West Okoboji. We will be in a green/tan Lund Explorer. If you see us, stop by and say hi. Man, I can't wait!!!

Only four more days. Man, I can't wait. Have the boat ready. Have all my gear ready. All I have to do is sit here and wait for four more long days. Heard that a few muskies were caught last weekend by people fishing for walleyes. Looks like the weather is going to be good too.........Is it Saturday yet?

We managed to get one muskie in the boat for the Iowa opener. It was a very healthy and fat 35"er. We also caught a 33" pike and a 35" pike. The weather kind of sucked. Very very windy. Good Luck to everyone next weekend.

Sounds like a good way to start out the year. 8 more days and counting.
