marine_man HotSpotOutdoors Pro Staff Registered: 12/09/02 Posts: 3863 Loc: Lisbon, ND	Originally Posted By: Kylersk Does that mean I can fish for them without a tag if I'm not planning on harvesting them. Yes, that's correct. And to boot, you can only keep one, with a tag, from April 24 - May 7 & July 1 - Sept 30. marine_man _________________________ marine.man1@yahoo.com Fishing Minnesota Sponsors

dtro HotSpotOutdoors Specialist Registered: 08/19/00 Posts: 6507 Loc: Southwest Metro	marine_man is right. Don't worry about buying a tag for this event, as the season will only be catch/release when we are there. _________________________ DTroFishOn@Gmail.com King of the Cats 2007 Champion 2008 King of the Cats Champion If knowledge is power and ignorance is bliss, then fishing must be somewhere in between.

Tippman Sr FishingMN Family Registered: 08/03/06 Posts: 996 Loc: St.Cloud, Mn	I'm bummed. I was excited to finally make this event but the one weekend I coulnd't do it was April 19th. Got a half marathon and wedding that day. Guess I'll see some of you at Cool Cats though. Maybe next year. _________________________ bgradin@charter.net

Warning-it's 10 minutes long! Do the sturgeon thing this year folks, I don't care if you have to sleep in your car it's a ball! _________________________ Fish Hard or Go Home! FishingMN Sponsors

Big Country IceLeaders Family Registered: 01/06/06 Posts: 235 Loc: Up North	Biggest one I ever caught was a baby on the St. Louis river. All of six pounds. Count me in. I have never fished the Rainy and almost have a few times. I can't wait! Does anyone know if walleyes are open then, or not? They use to have an early season, but not sure if they still do. BC

crazyice Sr FishingMN Family Registered: 12/01/06 Posts: 955 Loc: Rochester	Walleye season is closed when the excursion is going on. What a monster in that video! I can only hope to get something half that size this year. _________________________ A steady job and a woman can ruin a good fisherman!

boilerguy HotSpotOutdoors Specialist Registered: 01/23/03 Posts: 6836 Loc: Avoca, MN. USA	Good thing he had music in the background. He's probably saying,"My arms are tired, my arms are tired, my arms are tired!!!" End of April can't come too soon after watching that!!! _________________________ Dude, where's my bobber????

Shamu HotSpotOutdoors Family Registered: 06/06/07 Posts: 73	I can't wait. Now I have the itch. I am buying a new rod and reel for the event. I am going to be replacing my one that I lost last year. With the same pole and new Aubu 6501c catfishing reel.
