Well I was one of the lucky fishermen that went to the "Great Red Wing Festival" this past weekend.
Thanks to Kyle for putting together a great trip.
Thanks to Doug & Phil for the fish frying event.
Thanks to all that brought extra fish & food to feed everyone.
Special Thanks to Doug for the homemade apple pie.
Best after supper drink I've had in a while, maybe some ice cream next year.
Thanks to everyone who brought food and caught fish for the fish fry and prepared supper:D
Even though fishing was tough it was great to get together and share fishing tips and stories. Even the the TOE story hooked a few guppies
Great bunch of people we have in our Club
Anyone should be pround to be the next Club President
I had a great time again this year! Thanks to all the guys that came up and made it a fun event, thanks to Doug and Phil for their hard work frying the fish, and thanks to the Border Lounge in Hager City for providing entertainment Saturday evening along with a tournament seminar from Brett King just before closing time! And for the record there were keeper fish caught for the fish fry this weekend, it was just slower this year than normal. Lets plan on the weekend of November 16th for next year!
I enjoyed seeing all the members on the water and especially Mr "No See'em". That's the 1st time I thought I seen him in his new rig. My group of farmer friends kept 29 eaters in the 2 days. We caught a lot handling and the other boat caught all theirs ripping sonars. RH
Rooster, I'm all shot to pieces,well you asked for it.
Oh I forgot to say we talked to the local fisheries biologist and he said the data they gathered indicated that the average size of saugers right now was 13" and that's why most of the fish ran small. The bigger 18" sauger are few far between he said. He said the food supply was enormous and the shad didn't die off last winter like normal. Also he said the walleye population was tremedious. RH
Rooster, I'm all shot to pieces,well you asked for it.
I just wanted to say "Thanks" to all the great club members who shared their time, stories, food and laughters this past weekend up at Red Wing. Phil and I had a good time and look forward to cooking again next year for you all.
God Bless and Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Your life consists of two dates and a dash, make the most of the dash!
