The st. croix river no wake law is in full affect. As a avid fisherman of the st. croix river. I just love this law. I can fish on a nice day like this on the weekend without the jetskis and houseboats throwing up 6 ft waves…lovin it! 
I Agree

Me too! I don’t even fish up there. 
Sounds like pure heaven. 
Nothing better than the no wake on the river. Really makes for nice fishing.
Not when I just picked up my new 618VS w/ 115 Yamaha on the back. I kinda wanna open her up, and see what she can do 
hey, not a problem. put her in on the Miss. We’ve got plenty of logs that me and my mechanic friend have been draggin into the main flow.
Looking for someone to advertise my new PFD business. You know, a woulda, coulda, shoulda ad campaign???

On the “will it, won’t it” scale, the question of whether the St. Croix River will jump its banks is leaning more towards the “it won’t” end of the spectrum.
After heavy rains earlier this week, concern was growing that the river would swell past its flood stage of 87 feet. However, the St. Croix was expected to crest the afternoon of Saturday, June 2, and as of 3 p.m. had topped out at 85.89 feet, according to the National Weather Service’s Advanced Hydrological Prediction Service.
Reminiscent of last June.
Hey plungepool,
Sounds like a nice ride!
seen some people on their jetskis and thought maybe i should tell them. the old me would have yelled at em..but all i could do was laugh and wave!

Yes sir!! 2005 boat w/ a 2006 motor with only 45 hrs on it
and u want to take it out on the croix, on a weekend, and beat the urine out of it?…lol
No, I work weekends. I was just hoping to get out this week on my days off
i see. during the week is the best.
A buddy just picked up a new to him
triton with 200 horsies. He can’t get it in the riv either. Lake Malileau just wouldn’t do it justice
Since the water is literally right up to my door steps, I can see why they have a mandatory no wake regulation.
I’m not trying to make this into an anti big boat thread.
The cruisers that are made to plow through the water really raise heck with the shore line. That’s just the way they are made.
Since there’s more dirt/sand banks on the Mississippi then the St Croix, I wonder why there isn’t any restrictions here(?)
(Not that I’m advocating them)
No it wouldn’t, not to mention it’s kind of a pain to get in and out of there 
I’ve been racking my brain all day to find another good alternative and I can’t think of one. Well I guess I’ll just have to make the treck to Tonka to sling some of those big baits

I yelled at them. I saw them going 50mph north bound and then about an hour later they were going 5 mph southbound. I’m guessing the sheriff caught up with them around Kinnie.
I’m surprised at how few people were out yesterday. It made for a great day trolling with the kids. Picked up 4 saugers.
never understood the point of putting a big boat up on plain….whats the hurry? if i had one it would never be up on plain if i could even afford for it to leave the dock…
Looks like Friday afternoon the no wake restriction will be lifted.
