OK. As the newly appointed vice president, my first point of order is to impose a slight rule change as follows:

No team or individual from such team is allowed to prefish during normal business hours that I have to work, or on Saturdays when I have to babysit, or any other time that I am obligated to perform activities other than fishing.......

Cuz gosh darnit that just aint fair......

Yes I'll take some cheese with that whine. And yes I am unfortunately just kidding about the rule change.

Here....Fisheeeeeeee!!

We'll be there Sunday... going to be a tough bite with the water still rising... should be a lot of fun though... as for experience on the river, only have made it out once this year. Plan to get out Thursday night again...

Team WalleyeWackers

Here's a question, since its a multi specie tourney, and certain seasons aren't open(bass) for the first tournament, thats means no bass right? Or am I not aware of a pool 4 rule? I am new to that part of the river, but I'm sure it'll be a blast. Whats the weather supposed to be like?

Lunker,
Everything is in season all year on these border waters. The size limits on pool 4 are more stringent than the size limits outlined for the general tournament structure however. I'm sure they will go over the size limits at the rules meeting...

14" size limit on bass on pool 4
15" size limit on walleye on pool 4

LETS rule #1
All rule and regulations of the state of Minnesota will be observed at all times.

This would include following the minimum lenght for species on Pool 4.It also includes the limit of fish.Note that Pool 4 also has different limits than inland waters.You are allowed to weigh in one persons limit of each species listed in the LETS regs.
Could make for some big mumbers on the scoreboard.

One person's limit at weigh in? Oh...okay, so you could have two person's limits in the well and cull just before weigh in? Umm, is a fish still healthy after 4 hours in a livewell? I'm igg-nuh-rint.

If its a good livewell and water temps are not to high, fish should be swell. We should have very little mortality probs. Jimmy and I got temps around 56 or so Monday. The rains really cooled things off.

Do I need a Wisconsin day-license?

Nope. Your MN fishing license is sufficient.

Brian,

You can be a nuetral observer in my boat.

Well I don't think I can get away with that, but it was worth a shot.

Dennis, have you composed a list of cell numbers, and who has VHF's??

Hey Brian at the very least you should come down and say HI any way.Always can use a hand at weigh ins too.You could be the weigh in Official.And waste can write the scores on the leader board while I record them.
I do have a list of cell numbers but I don't know who will be using radios.We will need to decide on a channel that morning.

Where is the weigh-in and what time?

We will be doing the weigh ins at Everets at 11:00 am, and break for lunch and then again at 4:00.

Question. I recal reading a post about getting directions down there, but can't find it. Any help? We are comin from s. mpls.(near southdale)
