    Want to go catch 26-30″ channels in Anoka? Bite doesn’t start till 930ish. Want to break that 15# mark. Can’t deal with the day holiday crowds so keep it to sundown angling.

    Hope the back heals, back pain is NO fun.

    I wss going to head north but its tough to drive a few hundred miles and deal with traffic when I have had great fishing within a half hour of the house all season.Probly stick to the Misissipi anywhere from Brooklyn Park down to pool 2.Smallmouth and walleyes will be my target.

    The St. Croix was slow today….a fish here, a fish there, lots of great looking water with no fish in it in between. Fred and I covered miles of river today, caught 6 or 8 Smallies and a couple of Northerns.

    Also saw a couple dump their canoe. The guy made it to shore, the woman was hanging onto a branch out in the river. We got there in time to pull her in and then helped them recover most of their gear. Those two made a lot of mistakes today and lived to talk about it.

    Chore tomorrow and then maybe my favorite east Metro Bass lake on Monday morning.

    Bp launch has been good so far this year. Come December you don’t want bunks.

    I havnt been down there since Thursday but the ramp was good then.If you have rollers your fine but bunks you have to back in the water quite a bit,well at least my buddy does with his bunk trailer.

    Rained out this AM, bummer. But that’s the first time that’s happened this season so I can’t complain too much.

    Hope everyone has a great Holiday and eats too much BBQ.

    Rain stayed off in the Mississppi Anoka area for me this AM, lil drops about it. Caught a couple walleyes, hand full of smallies, just can’t find the size, yet, in that area. Trolling fire tiger jointed shad rap on main channel current breaks was key. Got a couple on a spinner with plastic too, forgot the worms doah
