LAX, WI area gtg anyone?

would anyone be interested in having a get together this ice season in the La Crosse, Wisconsin area? there are a lot of IDA’ers from the area and we have tons of backwater pool 8 and lake onalaska acreage to fish. anyone interested in the thought or interested in helping to plan an event, drop a line here and/or pm me! I would hope that everyone would be interested, but just wanted to post this to see if we can work together to actually make it work!

Thanks,
Cade

WHY NOT??!!!!

i agree, from what i hear. bout the fishing up there, it would be worth the drive! i say we should do it.

I’d be willing !! just change the PdC one to LAX !!!

What do the rest of you guys think ?

No, No, No!!! We need to keep the PdC event! I love going down there and catching all those Bass through the ice….

Actually, that PdC event is a heck of a lot of fun. We could squeeze in a LaX event for sure!

Mr. Mack, I’ll have no say in the matter, other than to say a La Crosse event might be neato cool. My work load likely won’t allow me to go to either one anyway. (gotta get a different job)
But, if you cancel out the PDC event, the PDC police might be very dissapointed. I think they’ve come to expect Jake and Mr. Funny Pants to blow into town every winter.

Any more thoughts for or against ?

I would show at LAX or PDC if I do not have a Wild game to attend!!

i say why not do both. i mean the PDC we need to have its a good time plus we’ve been doing it. the PDC can be the big blow out type like 2 years a go. then have the LAX just a little GTG for people to meet and just have fun fishing. i wouldnt see why we couldnt do both. i think we need to do more of these, its a blast.

I’m likeing the LAX idea too…(both that is)

but the LAX plan is that I get a motel for the night…send the wife shopping while I go fishing and just meet up with her later in the day…it’s a win win situation

We definitely need to KEEP the PdC GTG That is a good time and gives me a chance to get away for a weekend. We could for sure try to get a LAX area GTG as well a little later in the year

I think doing both would be sweet also. I was really pulling hard on my dad last year to just drive down to PDC and go to the event but then it got cancelled. I don’t know if he would of, but it wouldn’t suprise me if he did. Thats where I got thinking: wouldn’t it be cool if we could have one in LAX too, so all us kids that live here in Lax wouldn’t have to worry about major transportation. But I would really like to go to the PDC one too, because I love trying new water. My only problem with the pdc event is not getting a ride, seeing as a drivers license is still 1 full year away from me.

lets here some input from some other LAX ice-heads?? Bret? Where are ya?

If you stay between the tracks a LAX GTG would allow MN residents to fish without having to get the Ia or Wi license.

Count me in. I’d also be happy to help organize.

I will be willing to go to both,always have fun at them.ICE JOHN TEAM ICEHEAD

Hi all,
La crosse rookie here. I would definitely be in for the LAX gtg. Hi Mike. Hi Cade. It must be getting close to first ice, I am back to checking the site regularly. Look forward to hooking up with you guys soon. Ted

Yo Ted Nice to see ya back I almost stopped in your office the other day to see of you were still around. Looking forward to hitting the ice with you again this year. I have a few more days of work and I am done for the year

Ted! I was wondering what happened to the Laxrookie! Glad to have you back and I was thinking you would be back around ice time. What happened to Mike C., JP mason, and J_ERICKS?

Let me know when you want to hit the hard water Ted, I think this year is going to be my best one yet!

I heard Lacrosse has better scenery than PdC?

Just bringing this back to the top of your new post list. I’m serious about this idea and would hope that EVERYONE interested respond here or in a pm. I haven’t recieved any pms yet regarding the issue so i was thinking either some of the people haven’t seen this yet or don’t care for the idea. I really would hope we could do something like this!
thanks,
Cade

There was some talk about an ice gtg in LAX in the shoutbox today..so i thought i’d bring this back to the top!

Nothing’s final until we get REAL ice here in La Crosse, but I think we could for sure work something out.

Both places sound good
Aaron (favorite youngest son) and I would try to make it…
Favorite oldest son don’t fish,I tried my best… I keep working on him

Sounds like an excellent idea! Fishing in that area is always good. Looking forward to meeting fellow IDAer’s from the area.

Bob

I’d want to come if the date is right.

John

This would be a great idea if we get any ice.

What is this ice you men speak of

Count me in!!!

TTT
(now that there’s ice)

Yes, I’m thinking we should wait a little longer, but I still think we should have a little in formal gtg…I don’t know yet where we would have it…I have some spots I’ve been hitting, but they aren’t very big and I don’t want to give them up…I think we should get the ball rolling and get together in the next 3 weeks before indian summer strikes again The best possibilities I was thinking of are stoddard and lake onalaska, since they are community areas with large area. But with minimal parking at stoddard, and who knows if the fish will be biting…its hard to say.

Anybody got any more ideas?

Is anyone going to revive this now that there will be some ice?
