    The Gf and I are looking to try fishing something other then the St Croix this weekend. Are there muskies above the fondu lac dam on the St Louis or are they just on the lower part of the St Louis? I thought I remember reading something about the Mississippi up around Grand Rapids. Is there a fishable population up that way? My other idea was to bring my camping gear and leave my cabin in McGregor and head up to the Big fork/Little fork fri-sun.

    That is where I decided to head. Fbrm I will be seeing plenty of tail when her swim suit falls off the first corner past the access.

    The Mississippi in Grand Rapids has some good fish in it for sure

    Well the Big Fork was a bust for us this weekend but I will take another trip up there sometime when the water is low. We put in at Big Falls and ran upriver 6-7 miles and fished are way back down. The plan was to stay and fish Saturday but with my new outboard not starting and new muskie reel not surviving. We made the drive back down to McGregor Friday night.

    We both neglected to take any pictures until we were almost back to the truck.
