ATT: CANOPY SAM

[Boar]

Hey, I'm looking at moving ahead on the cat trip this summer to july 25-27 I expect to leave and be at you're place by 1 or so, so have lots of food and money waiting. I'll enjoy taking full advantage of you and you're home while I'm there. When I arrive, please take care of my gear as I will be tired from the drive. Buss me off to the best fishing hole and do all of the work for me as I will still be tired from the drive. Lindsey will have to entertain Amber as she will be eqaully tired as I. In short, do everything, feed us, and hither as we call. Let me know when you can start sending money for I will need alot. I'm so excited I can hardley wait. The irony would be if that weekend dose'nt work for you this sarcastict bit will be for not. I plan on catching bullheads at maple what size ya want? anything leagle on down? suckers? Let me know what I need to bring. Later, Boar

Ah Boar! My good old freind. You are welcome, as always. And, of course, I will provide everything: food, money, beverages, gear, conversation.....as always...
However, you have chosen a weekend that I am already booked to work. I'll make every effort to switch out this weekend so that I can accomodaate your every need, as I have for so many years. I'll have to let you know in the next couple of weeks if this is possible at all. Give me a little time.

[Boar]

Pick a week end that works and I'll let ya know. Probabley easier that way. Either way I'll be taking that friday off an going home earley sunday. Okeedokee? Later, Boar

The weekend of July 20th Denny and I are fishing a tournament here in Waconia. The first weekend in August would work (Aug 1-3). Isn't that when you were originally planning on coming down? Or was it Sept.?
I don't have any plans for that weekend right now, and it's a good time to get in on the steady cat bite. Hope this one will fly. Otherwise, well, I don't know otherwise.

[Boar]

Hey good luck in the turny, and remenber, the fish are afraid of the water. Taht weekend works at home but have to check at work. I'll be in touch. boar

Hey sam, hows it going? Sink some lead yet? I talked Eem into fishing the Red next weekend, Cant wait, with my 25 I'll be able to cover a lot more water. The river is really low, mature trees completley exposed almost. I've havent encounterd the river this low before,I'm going up river, seen some promising structure as I drive south along the river, I'm going to concentrate on holes though, any hints? Towards evening were going to the point in East grand mabey, depending on what I find in the river. Have a motor to carrie me far and fast with an extra tank. Later, boar

Howdy, Howdy, Howdy!

Yeah, I've fished a couple times, but haven't seen a whole lotta action. Probably get out for a bit this weekend just to say I was out.

Is the first weekend of Aug gonna work for you? Sure would be fun to have you down. Lemme know whatcha tink, ok?

[Boar]

Yea first week in Aug. works, have schedualed it off at work so its all a go. I'll be there unless something major comes up. I tell ya though, I'm not going to want to work to hard at it, I know that sounds wimpy but after work and a long drive, actually a short drive really. lets find a shoreline/sandbar/lawnchair/beer and I'll be happy. Just some easy happy fishy matty jeffy time. I'll be rigged and ready to go when i get there. I'll be in touch. Later Boar

Hay sam hows it going? havent been on for awhile to busy, did get one trip to red in with eem, two weeks ago. Hit three nice fish right of the bat on snage #2 then it was work hit a fourth in a hole that droped from 8-16 ft snages didnt produce after that on the hit an run think I should have given them a little more time with 15 mn max pushin 20. water temp temp was still in the mid 50's. One lat last hole produced three hits but no takers and eem finally set on the 4th but horsed him to just under the surface and bink "aaawww" Fun was had by all. His first cat trip, had fun, he likes it cause he can power nap after we set up. Verns got my blood boiling for lockpor going to try to get up there end of june. Later boar
