Sorry AintheH, no guarantees on that one! Heehee!

[teresa]

I am so chomping at the bit. I will have an electric griddle and bring batter for a fish fry on Saturday night. I've got a canopy so if it rains we'll still be able to stay a bit dry. I'm bringing some steaks for the bbq Lisa, can't pass that up! We sure won't go hungry. Oh gosh...how quick can Friday get here!

[teresa]

Tammy....I'd like to try the kayak if it works out. No waves for me though......I've only canoe'd but might switch to a lighter form of floatation.

[reelemin]

teresa - yes to the kayak. I'll have 2 there. Donna's is a great beginners yak and also has a rod holder on it. The weather is looking great for this weekend. Mornings and evenings the winds should be calm enough for some yak fishing !!!

I eat real simple when camping so I'll have some hot dogs to throw on the grill, to go with my margarita

I am going up thurs after work and also have a canopy, but don't think we'll be needing them

Anyone hear any reports as to what is working out there lately. Leeches, crawlers, crankbaits ???

Mayflies yet ??

I am totaly looking forward to this.

[Hotspotter]

Was just there. Tammi or Lisa or both email me for more information if you're interested. Paul will have more up to date information from this week, but I'll help out where I can.

Everybody must be too busy getting ready and can't find time to post.

[glenn57]

that must be!! packing a couple suitcases takes a while. hehehe. have a good time!!!

[Gary Crichton]

You guys are stirring the pot up. I LIKE it.

[glenn57]

ok then i will stir a bit more.in about 19 hours from now i will be at the cabin sitting at the table with a cup of joe trying to figure out what lakes to fish, i hate all that pressure. any help would be considered. n0te; i posted this on the deer river site also.

[Gary Crichton]

And I answered you too.....

[Lisa Almquist]

I've been busy packing! I'm getting pretty excited too! My next step here is to set up my tent on the deck to make sure everything's there. Hopefully we won't be needing our rain fly's! There's still a chance of thunderstorms in the Mille Lacs area the next couple days but only 20% with mid to lower 70's. That sounds more like summer than what Carlton's been having!

[Gary Crichton]

Well You ladies have a great time and try to relax a little. I am sure you all have earned it. And look at the un intentional present you are giving your better halfs. (see what you started Glenn).

[Lisa Almquist]

Don't make me go all a marriage counselor on you two-glenn and gary!!

[teresa]

I think my father will be smiling down on me this weekend knowing that I am enjoying something that he taught me a long time ago. Hey...it's not husbands day anyway, so the better halves are the ones fishing....not the ones left to assure dinner on the table upon our returns..they would be considered the left overs. Now....that being said. Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there, whithout them, well, we just wouldn't be here.

[Gary Crichton]

Everytime my now 21 year old daughter says can you take me fishing, I get a smile on my face. I LIKE THE FEELING.

Glenn I think were in trouble here.!!!!!!!!

[teresa]

boys....tread lightly. I have my flu flu's and Lisa is armed with fish nets. We're taking father's day to a whole new level.

Ladies, I think Saturday night we should share father's stories. And....maybe a beer.

[Lisa Almquist]

I just got my tent up! I didn't put the rain fly on it yet but how hard can that be? Yay Lisa!

I'm sure after this weekend teresa, you're gonna wish I wouldn't share so much!! I'm teasing...but as you can tell I'm not super shy. I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone. I hope I have enough stuff packed. I'll be buying leeches when I get down there.

[Gary Crichton]

How are you going to transport your set up tent from there.

Had to take the shot.(sorry)

[Lisa Almquist]

Oh it just straps onto the top of my Honda! I'm absolutely sure that's what those little straps are for!! You and glenn are quite the pair aren't you gary?

[UdeLakeTom]

Calm down now boys.

[Gary Crichton]

Kinda slow at work today and in one of those grief giving modes.Sorry

Good luck and be safe Ladies. Appledorns look out, get ready to mark the calender.

G.C.

[hopeforfish]

Two hours of work left and then I am free. I still have not packed but did a little shopping over lunch. I can not tell you how ready I am for this weekend. See ya'll tomorrow.

[reelemin]

I can't wait you guys, its going to be a great time!!!

I'm not headed up tonight, but I'll be leaving very early tomorrow morning.

See ya all tomorrow, - yippy

[Iambjm]

I spent the day, cleaning the boat, put on an anchormate (trust me a tough job with the old grouch standing around telling me what to do), cleaned the car, made potato salad, washed clothes, went through our rods and realized most of them are junk (I feel a shopping spree coming), now I am going to spool a reel, tie some snells, organize the tackle box a little better and crash. I have to make a side trip to Mora but should be up in the afternoon.

[reelemin]

Barb - you are one amazing women

this is going to be a gooood weekend !!!
