    Does anybody know where the zebra mussels checkpoint is on the Croix above Stillwater and could you give me a good reference point on the river for it? All water above it is offlimits for the upcoming AE Championship.

    I’ll shoot Commancharo15 a note to check out this post….He’s an expert up that way…

    But the checkpoint is just above the Arcola High Bridge…if that helps.

    Direct from the National Park Service website:
    Zebra Mussel Check Station – A closure for boat traffic traveling upstream exists at the High Bridge (mile 28.5) to prevent the spread of zebra mussels.

    You can get maps direct from this site: http://nps.gov/sacn/visitor/brochure_rack.html

    Nuts…I’ll be out of town.

    It’s always fun to watch the rockets shooting up stream from the kinni!

    Where’s weigh in? I know last year one of the tournies took all of MY fish down to Treasure Island and released them…

    Actually we could use our bass population thined a little.

    The weigh in is at Clydes. Weigh in starts at 3. Oh and I will try to thin out your bass alittle for you.

    Steve…take it easy…it’s a White Bass event…the only one that’s going to be upset is Turk…he LOVES those things!

    Sports Anchor? I’m guessing this isn’t an “OPEN” event? As you might be able to tell, I know very little about tournies and less about bass fishing…(except Slop Bass look pretty handsome in his bass shirt )
