My brother and I were at the Tot lot Wed night and got about 3/4 bucket for 2 1/2 hours of pulling, starting around 10pm. Last night (Thur) we did MUCH better (so did everyone!). We ended up with about 3 buckets for the same times and we were NOT hard at it! We did a pull, maybe 2 and then sat down to listen to tunes and watch others. Most pulls gave us about 2-3 dozen with our best pull being close to 1/2 bucket. It looked like everyone near us right in front of the lot, were getting great pulls. We met a really friendly Amish group and a few people from Coon Rapids right next door to Fridley where we're from. We had a great time and will be back next week if they still seem to be running. Good luck to everybody going up and remember to stay safe and treat others with respect

Things are going just as expected. Other than the order of the how the run usually unfolds.
So you have to choose between walleyes and smelt this weekend. I would choose smelt, walleyes will be around and biting all summer long! Lol
The Lester is likely close to it's peak. And when it does trail off it will be faster than the building phase. So enjoy it now!
The beach is just starting to get cranked up! Wait till people are hooping over 20 gal pulls! The run here will drag on for a couple weeks. So enjoy it all folks! Our patience is being rewarded!!

No good tonight. This cold front shut them out. Tomorrow probably won't be good either. Sunday should be good.

Isn't it illegal cast netting? Hope the CO or DNR doesn't come out.

Last night was pretty rough last night. Got about 5 gallons from 9-midnight. Lots of debris, high waves, and cold. Still had a blast! Airport still iced up pretty bad.
