That's his story and he's sticking to it! :laughing4:DIRTBALL2

Well somebody needs to give her the business...

naw/nope.....she gives everyone else...... !!!!!!!!!

and now I'm DONE for the day..  and heading to Alexandria for the all famous all fishermen skunked derby bright and early tomorrow..  or should I say DARK and early.. Sun won't be up when we be leaving....  But at least they have it on a lake that has FISH this year...    <{{{{{><  

 

i dunno know???? DB2????????

Heading up to Glenn's area this am to see if we can catch some cats....Hopefully I'll see Glenn.

Well, no fish.  But I did win a hardwater tip-up, my grandson won some fishing line and some jigs and my son-in-law won some jigs and rattling spoons, so the trip was worth it.

No fish...had a good lunch, about 60 or so people showed up, not much to show for it.  Saw the big guy, but he was just hanging out.

Here is the only fish that was caught by our group.  Right when Andrew dropped the line in, he had a bite.  Nice size rock bass.
Grandpa can't take very good pictures.

i already have 2 ofthem!!!!!!

Maybe Swanni can use one.

It must be catching cuz I'm also headed out to a fishing comtest this weekend on LOW. It's put on every year by Springsteel Resort and the Warroad Chamber of Commerce. They have some pretty nice prize's, none of which I will win I'm sure. Polaris has donated a kick-butt 4-wheeler! There is also an Ice Castle Fish House being given away. If I were to win it, I might just give it to swanni! :laughing6:Yeah right, as my grandson would say. They will also have a drawing every 15 minute's during the contest for a $100.00 bill! I've gone to a gazillion fishing contest's in my lifetime and during all those contest's I've only caught 2 fish! One was a dinky crappie at the Winter Festival contest on White Bear Lake. Not big enough to win anything. The other was a walleye I caught at the same contest I'm going to this weekend on LOW. Wonder of wonder's, it was the 3rd biggest caught which netted me $250.00! Of course I took that money right home and gave it to my wife! :laughing4:The reason I won that was because of a good tip I got from my fishing buddy! If anybody want's to know what the tip was you will have to PM me. Dammed if I will put it out here right in front of God and everyone else! I'm still kicking myself for not thinking of it myself, it was so simple! Well I hope everybody will wish me good luck! Yes! That does include you sparcw, ULT, and glenn57! :wav:DIRTBALL2

P.S. for swanni-Don't forget to use that little trick I showed you! Of course if you win anything big I'll expect my usual commission!

The amazing thing I just learned on this thread...to catch fish, you need some kind of bait.

THATS JUST WHAT THIS THREAD IS ALL ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!

We keep telling ya... this thread is chock full of USEFUL information....... next topic will be "Always have a lure at the end of your line.."  must be what keeps the bait on...
