Lake Gogebic Here We Come

[hugonian1]

A few of us are heading up the 28th thru the 1st. The anticipation is killing me. The reports from Otter and Hawkeye make the wait even tougher. I hope my report is as good as theirs. As a bonus I found out today the "Hog-A-Thon" perch contest is being held on the 29th. Just that name, Hog-A-Thon, is going to make me lose sleep. Perchking has been a huge resource in helping plan a trip. I can't thank him enough. What a neat guy. Man it's gonna be a hard couple of weeks.

You are in for the time of your life. If you need anything e-mail me and if I can help, I will. Sign up right away for the Hog-a Thon., Man I wish I could be there. A couple of friends left today to fish the next 2 days, they will be on the water early. Have Fun!!!!

hugonian1,

I will keep you posted on how I do this weekend, they are always on the move but the good thing is the never move that far. As for the Hog-A-Thon, my prediction is a 2.6lb fish will win it this year. Pretty good prizes a good meal and alot of nice people and for $25 for an entrance fee, you cant go wrong... Unfortunately my wife surprised me with a trip to Sarasota Fl that weekend, I tried to get out of it but that wasn't going to happen.

Have fun...

I forgot you were heading to FL Greg. Have fun and if anybody needs any info. feel free to email me as well. Have fun up there guys!

[Northlander]

shiner when are we going? Lets do it man.

[Nate McVey]

Greg, when are you coming back from FL?

Steve, midweek would work best for me.......let me know if you're down for a one day trip (maybe two) it is only 2 1/2 hours from Duluth..............

[Northlander]

I have this wed/thurs off but Im going to Canada to chase Crappies. Maybe the week after? I have Tues Wed off then.

2 days would be better. Maybe get 2 other guys to go?

[Nate McVey]

Sounds like a plan (at this moment right now)......let me see what work looks tomorrow and I'll shoot ya an email or give ya a call...........

[hugonian1]

We are heading up tomorrow afternoon, a day earlier than planned and staying thru Monday. It sounds like winter is holding on up there with new snow and cool weather for the time of year. I am looking so forward to trying new waters with the opportunity to ice a true sow. The Hog-A-Thon will be a blast to participate in on Saturday. I hope to return with a great report.

[Nate McVey]

Good luck hugonian1, I've heard nothing but good things about the bite for the last week or so, you should have a great time! Be sure to check out the Hoop n' Holler while you're on the lake (at the north end, west of Bergland). Can't wait to hear the report.

[hugonian1]

Thanks Shiner. The Hoop n' Holler is now on the "list".

[Team Otter]

Gogebic Lodge "ain't" bad either...

[Nate McVey]

Yup, the Gogebic Lodge is another "must stop". The Hoop and Holler gets missed a lot because it's not really near any of the ice fishing hot spots..........
