June 1st was one of three days spent on Mille Lacs. A unique SMB / LMB double. A nice 21.5 SMB (my PB). And my partner that day Oly got a nice 21 inch SMB.

14 years must have some real blessings. Marriage is very tough and requires a lot of effort on each spouse’s part. I am always finding changes I need to make in my own life in order to have peace in our marriage – 43 years in June. You can’t change her, only yourself. I find Christian values to be a tremendous help in overcoming marriage relationship issues. Although Christian marriages fail at the same rate as no christian, I believe it can work all things out given a full commitment. If you have interest, I can help you locate the spot on the spot in Scripture to start looking for help. PM me for more info and some web pointers for some Christian marriage help.

I plan to be there. What a great night to hear about mobile ice fishing.

Which app did you try?

I was looking at the Fish Tales app – a fishing journal that records info along with picture of fish caught. wondering if anyone has any experience with this app.

Daryle Hamlin will plan to fish with one or two others in my boat. Had a great time last year. Still using the rod I won – Thanks Dean.

I was on P2 Thursday with no luck. I am going again Monday. Can you share some spots an techniques.

I can agree that these are 60 great ideas. #61. Fish together sometimes when it is nice out

WOW! Very nice fish. Congrats!

Steve, Happy Birthday. May God continue to provide abundant blessings in your life. Daryle Hamlin

Jeff, Happy Birthday. I used to call you JR (Jeff Rudy), or SG (Sturgeon General), or Tiny, or President. Now it will just be OF (Old Fart)! Daryle

Bushman, thanks for the details. Daryle

Mike, Thanks for taking the time to respond. Daryle

I plan to attend. I enjoy reading Steve’s column in Outdoor News each week and look forward to his presentation tonight at the Apple Valley American Legion at 7PM.

That number gets a ” disconnected message”??

With an iPhone you can download the Navionics App for $10. Works great.

Yes, a great event. Thanks for putting it on.

I had a great time at the tourney. My first year. I also greatly enjoyed all the great info that was shared and the prize donated by Dean Marshall of a new rod (especially since I won that prize). My partner Oly Olson and I caught a few walleyes including this 25 incher on a firetiger blade.

Jack, Congrats on selling your boat. What are you planning to buy? Daryle

Sounds great – I will be there.

How was the fishing? My day is Monday, but headed down Sunday afternoon.

Steve, Happy Birthday! Daryle Hamlin

Jeff, May God provide abundant blessings to you on this special day. You are a real special guy and I appreciate knowing you – let’s fish toghether sometime soon. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Daryle

Thanks it was a great day.

Thanks for this information. I am considering purchasing an HDS-7 and I am still trying to understand what Insight will do for me – your article leads me to think it will be a great help.

Agreed, there are many more important concerns than a reasonable increase in fees after almost a decade.

I fish the Canadian waters of Lake Of The Woods regularly in the summer and fall. I get an RABC (Remote Area Border Crossing) from ontario by mail each year – this works great – but everyone in the boat has to have one – it was $35 (if I remember correctly) last year. The first time you apply you need to send a copy of your passport. I love Canadian fishing – it is just more remote and more beautiful with fewer boats – on Lake of the Woods, they do great in the US as well.

I am also looking at the Lakemaster SW. I also am considering an HDS 7 – my old unit won’t accept the new chips – it sounds like a real great capability – hopefully I won’t spend all my time fishing on the computer at home.

I recommend the iPod. Apple invented this application and there equipment is the best. The new iTouch is the hot item (although not cheap) and has nice features including ability to do movies.

I will certainly attend and take notes! I am looking to improve my P4 results. See you Tuesday.
