    I was finally able to get Lund85 (owed him a trip for website) out on the Croix for some walleye action. We didn’t get started till later in the afternoon and things started out slow. We zeroed the first 2 spots and picked up a couple dinks on spot # 2. By the time we got to spot # 3 it was game on with an 18″ eye. After that we decided we were going to have our own no stake in boat tournament and any fish caught besides a walleye or sauger was going to result in a -1 fish penalty. By the time we left spot # 4 I had a 3 fish lead but after a sheephead and Russ catching onto to the way I was rigging my crawlers he had a good come back and we were tyed, but a walleye at the time to go bell for him put him into the lead for the night so now Russ there’s going to have to be a re-match. All in all between the 2 of us we ended up with a mixed bag of 12 walleyes and saugers and only 3 or 4 sheepies.

    Russ it definitly was a great time and I was glad to finally be able to get you out on the Croix. Thank you for all your help with my website I really appreciate it.

    Pics are a few of the fish we caught and the 3 fish Russ decided was enough for him to take home for a meal

    Thanks for taking me out Jesse! It was a blast learning a little about the Croix. Now when we come fish the SCVWL I won’t be completely helpless. Next time you go out you may want to practice shaking off the sheepies Thanks again Jesse, I had a blast

    Come on fellas. Real Croix anglers eat Drum. Above the Taylor’s Falls dam its the law of the land to eat Drum. Get it together down there!

    Stop down at Lakefront Park next Tuesday night at 9:00. I’ll save my drum for you. You might want to presharpen your fillet knife.

    PS. Do you remove the rock from their skull before you eat them?
