Heck of a deer. Had a few encounters during bow season in MN with monsters like this but nothing on the ground.

I plan on making it up to Everts before the end of the month as well. Please check in a let us know how it’s going.
Not sure who you are having take you but I always find the drift straight back from the second pylon of the dam to produce a fish about every drift within a minute or two. Last year I took a few buddies 3 different times and that drift was the hottest for keeper fish.
