    Rouges, and Husky Jerks were the key for the most part allowing us to pull in nice fish like this

    The biggest fish that came into my boat was caught by Shed10. He was pulling a Clown HJ doctored up for some added attraction. Shed’s walleye was 29″ long and weighed 9 pounds 1 oz Well done buddy

    numbers for my boat per night were in the upper teens for around 8 hours of fishing (including lunch time on the lake ) but lots of fish in the 20’s. 22″ to 25″ were the most comon size, but real nice 27″ fish like this were the highlights of the night

    My longest walleye came on an orange craw HJ in 11 feet of water 120′ back..

    thanks to all who made my trip to Mille Lacs an enjoyable time…And to the owners of Hunters Resort…..you and your staff are top notch, and second to none

    I agree with your “Old Man”. What could we do to make things more fun for you??? Snakes, spiders maybe? Pick on Bob some more? You name it! But remember, I have a low pain tolerance…

    Thanks for the memories of a great Mille Lacs fishing trip to all. Dave thanks for the brats, maybe next time I can bring some real Iowa steaks from work. Tuck thanks for the ride. Hook good to see you again.
    Nice to meet you Koote, keep those MN guys in line. It takes a tough SD guy to do that from what I can see.
    Seriously I met a great group of guys while there. Scoal to all!! I know Craig(pothead)Petersen and Terry(Nelsen) had a great time also. We had lots of laughing and talking on the way back to Iowa.
    Craig and I will try to send reports from Chamberlain,SD trips next year as we chase the old eye fish.
    Best wishes to all,
    Lon Boysen Ia-musk-eye though I better join the best web site on the net.

    Is it just me, or do other people think that Hooks and Tuck could pass as twins now that Hooks has lost his razor?

    Poor Denise, her troubles have doubled!!
