    I’ve been saving vacation for this event since….last year. I’m working on my list of must pack and getting the boat all ready to go. Sorting out the first run of lures. I can’t wait to get up there a week from Thursday. Got two old friends from SD the first two nights. Feeling a little pressure, been braggin’ this bite up for 3 years now. Finally got them to come fishing with me. I hope I can put them on some fish!!!

    Send me a PM if you are going to be up next weekend and chat on the radio about what is working.

    Kooty, I will be up after work on Friday the 16th. You should have talked your buddies into the October Full Moon . That would give you a little bit to figure it out and also make them frezze a little more

    Rob, I will be up there too. I have to go to Spencer’s now and find some stuff to hide in Denise’s house while she is gone…
    Unless by some weird circumstance she decides to be nice to me…

    Doesn’t anybody hunt forest chickens anymore? That is where I’ll be. Sure has been tough the last several years, but still a good time.

    8AM might be a little early for me. I’m typically not getting off the water until 6ish. Depends on the bite, weather and my partners. I’d say a lunch deal would be better for me personally. I can suck it up and make just about anything you get planned though.

    Fellow members

    Sorry I can’t make the lunch on the 17th, but I will be up there on the 10th of October. What I need is help with a place to stay for the night of the 10th of Oct. I will be arriving around 10 am and plan on fishing till around 4, coming in to a cook dinner for my guide and myself and going out to fishing the first half of the night until 12 or 1 AM. Sleep for a few and have a home cooked breakfast and head back home around 11 AM. to pick up the bride who will be visiting our Grand-daughter in Shakopee. Any names and phone #’s of kitchenette type two bed resorts would be GREATLY appreciated. I would like to stay in the Garrison area.

    Thanks “skpike” – Roger Budny

    two words

    TWIN PINES

    you can make your own food but theirs is great and pretty inexpensive.

    or you could try the country in by the blue goose, maybe their suites have kitchenette

    other wise I think your out of luck

    The fish houses at Hunter’s Point may have cooking facilities if not they serve a great breakfast!

    Hunter’s has cabins as well! They are an IDA sponsor!

    And as a new visitor to Hunters, when you enter the bar for the first time, ring the bell. Its a great way to make a bunch of new friends for the night, quick.

    James why do I get the feeling that besides getting new friends I would be getting a LARGE BAR TAB?

    Well that would be a fair trade, right?

    But you are right, ringing the bell does has some consequences.

    Just got off the phone with a lady from a resort in the NW corner. She said the fishing has been pretty good the last couple evenings. Lots of slot fish! I take resort info with a grain of salt, but I’m still confident the bite will be good.

    I think that’s right Chappy. I’ll have to verify with Tuck though. He told me the other day, but I can’t remember for sure. Chris?
