Name is Eric and I work for a software company in Eden Prairie, but my role is Support aka Cust Service.

Any who, as my handle will show I love bass fishing. In the winter I chase eyes and crops.

I also like to go catfishing in the summer to. Favorite lake is Tonka, Favorite River is a toss up between the MN and da Sippi. Bass or cats, bass or cats, it's such a hard decision. grin.gif

Welcome aboard sir!

Another computer geek here. I work as a helpdesk analyst/tech. Live in Corcoran and work in Minnetonka/Eden Prairie border. Love fishing. Started surf fishing when I was kid in the Philippines. If I'm not fishing for walleyes, I'm river fishing for cats on the MN. I also love trout fishing.

cabinfever,
I don't know alot of trainers, but I do know one real well and he is a very good trainer and a good guy. His name is Phil Mathiowetz, he owns Windwalker Kennels in Goodhue.
phone: 651 923 4348
web: http://windwalkerkennel.com

Shameless plug coming... I've known him for 10+ years and trained with him on weekends for a couple of summers. He is a horseback field trialer and is the field trial chairman of the GSPCA so he has connections all over the country. You couldn't do much better for a trainer. He usually has a winter camp somewhere down south (So. Iowa, Kansas, New Mexico) and a summer camp (SoDak, Iowa) for dog training. The question would be what are your needs. If you're into NAVHDA he might not be the best fit but overall he's a great trainer. He trained the 2000 (I think) GSPCA National Amateur Gundog Champion and has finished many field champions so he's quite accomplished.

I just got a new pup from him last September and am very excited for next hunting season. I will probably send the pup to summer camp so she has a clue next fall.

If you talk to Phil or his wife tell him Clark sent ya. He'll probably roll his eyes and mutter something under his breath. 8^)
Good luck.

I am an official ROF.(retired old fart)Owned my own business,a beauty salon and suntanning studio, for 40+ years. I love fishing, hunting, and wild women.Not necessarily in that order. Grew up in the country near Cambridge,MN fishing the length of the Rum River, whenever I could sneak out from under my mother's watchful eye. Recently sold my house in Maple Grove and moved up here to where God would live if his wife let him. Warroad,MN. LOW, Manitoba, Ontario, lots of places to explore. Biggest fish this year:46 inch muskie, caught in Pipestone Lake,Ontario. CPR'ed it.

I am a person who just made a major change of direction after 30 years in engineering. After almost a year of fishingafter being layed off, I was hired by Gander Mountain in the fishing department. It is a fun place to work.
I fish as much as I can year round. I like to catch whatever swims, but target bass and muskies in the summer. I live in the south metro, so I fish lakes that usually are heavily pressured. Love Lake of the Woods in the spring and late fall.

Royce here. I am a sales rep-mgr for a home improvement division of a lumber yard in St. Cloud. Moved here from ND in 1990. Been fishing since I was about 3 so that would be 46 years. Thank you Lord!! I really love chasing smallies on the mighty mississippi. Eyes of course are my next favorite. But any time my line is wet I'm a happy camper what ever I'm after.

Joe from Maple Grove. I was told about this site during casual conversation with another angler on Medicine Lake a week ago.

I'm 31, Account Manager for a Creative Design company (print and interactive). I love to hunt and fish. I spend a lot of time at the family cabin in Spicer on Nest Lake.

I've only recently been seriously hooked on fishing since a serious motorcycle accident ended my pursuit of that sport.

I plan to spend a lot of time soaking minnows this year.

Even though you couldn't tell by reading all the magazines and online articles...there ARE actually Ice Fisherman outside the Midwest.

Colorado is starting to become renown for monster trout (bows, crowns and cuts), and a good day on 11 Mile Resevoir will get you at least 4 Trout (2 of 'em over 18 inches) in the shallows, quite a few Salmon deep, and a monster pike if you happen to be in the right place near the weeds.

I do Software Management Consulting, but won't fess up to geek status.

Welcome to the Forum!!

i too am a computer gee......... no wait, i build elevators. my name is kris and i work for the elevator union. i mainly fish in the winter(shore fishing drives me nuts). i started ice fishing last year when my duck hunting buddy wanted to repay me for a good duck season, so he took me crappie fishing and now im hooked(no pun intended).

i'd tell where i mainly fish, but i haven't been doing this long enough to be local anywhere.

i hunt waterfowl. ill hunt other things if friends take me, but i really don't have the interest in anything but ducks and geese. and crappies to fill the off season wink.gif

take care and have a safe season........loc9

I dont think that I am qualified to be a computer geek, but I enjoy checking this site out. I started out to be a Marine Bioligist but ended up getting a degree as an Aquatic Bioligist at Bemidji. I enjoyed a couple of quick years with the DNR and moved on to a career as an Environmental Manager with Control Data Corp and now as a consultant. If I am not on top of the water/ice fishing, I am under the water SCUBA diving. I live on Minnetonka so I spend most of my time there.
