Rebel and Rebel,

A lot of us cross pathes on these N Metro lakes and don't even know it. I've ran into several FMers up there and ended up fishing in the future with a few. Makes it nice after work if one guy can sneak out early and get a rig while the other heads straight to the lake from work for an evening.

It's interesting to see how others fish and what their tactics are on the same lake. "Lals" gave me the keys to his Ranger one day and said "you the guide". He commented on how I was more patient, both with spot/structure selection and time spent on a spot and my commitment to a presentation. In fact, my avatar pic to the left is from a day with him on a north metro lake! He probably switched lures every 5 to my 1, a great learning day for us both.

We'll set up a few very informal evenings, mostly just to compare notes and shoot the breeze this summer. Fun to see boat set-ups and modifications, equipment, and techniques. I've learned a lot this way.

Yeah thats a great thing about this forum... if not for this forum I would've not met Luke and gotten the monkey off my back last sept at Mille Lacs...

I wouldnt MIND going fishing with you, Chris, at all... I'd welcome the chance for that...

The informal evenings sounds great!!! Im all for it...

[Esox_Magnum]

If anyone wants to try out NW Iowa I'd be glad to show you around.

[Rebel9921]

Esox... Im definitely GAME for that, especially Lake Okoboji!!! I hear theres some good big muskies down there!!!

[Esox_Magnum]

Theres a few but throw in the Gin Clear water evens the odds. Seening one or 2 aren't the problem catching one is LOL. 31 boated in 07 off West O 23 over 40", 3 of those over 48" 1 over 50". At least 3 other 50"+ boatside on follows. And possibly 1 lost last trip out but just a guess, never had a fish turn my boat before.

[Rebel9921]

As I may have gotten the major monkey off my back catching my first ever Muskie... I still have the 50" monkey on my back... and thats what Im gonna go after in 2008 for sure!!! Im sure Okoboji holds couple nice monsters...

[Esox_Magnum]

I'd post up some pics but the pc is smarter than me.

[Grant Pearson]

rebel 16.5-

I'd be game for joining you and doing some musky fishing. I'm always more than willing to pay for gas, any dock fees, etc. Send me an e-mail and we can try to set something up.

Rebel9921-

we still need to get together and go out on BE sometime!!

[polarsusd81]

Esox magnum...if you email em to me, I can post em up when I get home from work tonight. My email addy is polarsusd81 @ yahoo . com (minus the spaces of course).

I get out on the water quite a bit myself and would love to get out with some other FMers. Makes for a lot of fun, meeting new people and sharing tricks and tactics.

[cjac]

We can do a west side evenning too, there's plenty of water over here too. A 'tonka evening out of Gray's access would be kind of fun, just to see where people hit, etc.

[Grant Pearson]

ole matty-

I'm up for fishing on FL with you. You show me some spots on FL, and I'll show you some spots on BE.

[Rebel9921]

Chris... I just realized... I do have other monkey on my back... Tigers!!! I finally got the boat title issue resolved... but thats another story... so hopefully I'll be getting the boat out of storage in March then gonna go work on it seeing what needs to be fixed or replaced then... I'll definitely be doing whole lot more fishing... and anywhere I want to!!!

Yeah Grant... we still need to fish BE...

Matty... You're welcome to join... Still need to solve the mystique of Forest Lake...

[cjac]

You have tigers 2 miles south from where you've been fishing........yeah, that's meant to be a teaser!

[Rebel9921]

Chris... 2 miles from where?? Forest?? French?? Mille Lacs??

[cjac]

Just down the road from Forest, Clear Lake. Check the DNR site on the lakefinder tab and you can see lake stocking and sampling statistics.

I plan on hitting it this year for sure.......
