Iambjm Sr IceLeaders Family Registered: 02/10/08 Posts: 1708 Loc: Grand Rapids MN	I went fishing at lake X last night and got skunked, well not skunked if you count the two little hammer handles I caught. My dear friend told me the locals have been hitting it pretty hard. His son and about 30 other people were there camping and his 2 grandsons were out fishing by me. I gave them some leeches and trolled down the shoreline, pretty soon they came racing over to me to show me the 20" walleye they caught on the leeches I gave them. At least they caught a fish, when I was loading up their dad told me they had been out there fishing all day and hadn't caught anything. I guess I helped "make their day" _________________________ I want to be an outrageous old woman who never gets called "Old Lady".....

hopeforfish HotSpotOutdoors Family Registered: 02/17/08 Posts: 266 Loc: Brooklyn Park	Did not get much fishing in this weekend, too many people on the dock, swimming or using the boat for water fun. We did get into a bunch of nice sunnies for a little while on Sunday. The sunnies will be the first fresh water fish that my sister in laws mother will ever taste. She is from the Philippines and has been wanting to try the local fish. Hope _________________________ To fish or not to fish... NOT TO FISH?? Like thats even an option!!

fish-n-fool Sr FishingMN Family Registered: 02/12/08 Posts: 756 Loc: Fgo/Mhd	Tried for a couple hours yesterday myself... but yeah.. Lots of boats flying around pulling tubes, kids swimming... Too much traffic to do much of anything but try keeping the boat upright from the waves of the recreational boaters. Oh well.. still have some leeches left for next weekend, even after I gave some away. Sounds like I fish like ULT, don't it?? Hope someone else had a little better luck. _________________________ Heeeere fishy fishy....I've got a little snack for ya... Fish on!!! No wait.. that's just my minnow..

mngirl Sr FishingMN Family Registered: 08/20/08 Posts: 429 Loc: Robbinsdale, MN	I had to work all weekend...but I get to have a fishing fix in a little bit... But in more exciting news, my twin sister (well only sibling for that matter) got engaged this weekend!!!! He popped the question on the 4th! It's about time, they have been together forever...so in the matter of a couple of weeks, I have become a maid of honor for two ladies...their weddings will be about six months apart...so...if I am in two weddings in one year does that mean I get my own next :P!?!?!!? If only...those bundles of flowers are MINE!!!! Glad to know everyone had a great 4th...only Labor Day left!!! I'm hoping to not work them all... _________________________ Life is random, so am I!

mngirl Sr FishingMN Family Registered: 08/20/08 Posts: 429 Loc: Robbinsdale, MN	That's what I'm starting to get worried about . Oh well, at least there's fishing . I am heading up next weekend to my dad's and hoping to maybe see some muskie swimming by if I can get on my neighbor's dock up there . Otherwise, great bass fishing too . I just need to get on some water!!!!! _________________________ Life is random, so am I!
