The money aspect isn’t the issue for me, but TIME is
I would have to waste 2 days driving time to get to LOTW vs. 1 day driving to Mille Lac.
Mille Lac leaves a guy with 1/2 day Friday, all day Saturday, and half of Sunday to fish.
LOTW would only give me 1 full day to fish and the rest driving there and back.
I don’t have vacation to use yet so that is not an option
Hopefully we will hear if something is even going to be planned for this year or not before too long
