OK, I think we need to cut to the chase here...Does a guy chance a drive up this weekend? Or wait until something gives on this forum. It started with me last Friday, My senses told me to look up the Happy Hooker forum for some action reports..  As the days this week progressed, I found myself dizzy with anticipation. I can't work, I can't talk to the wife & kids anymore without mentioning the S word!  Somebody please help me, I coming unglued...Silver fish, the dip net frenzy, the sleepless nights..OH the batter!!!God help me!!!! |

i was up to Ashland two nights ago we got twenty-five gallons all night  We did better than everyone else that was there we also stuck around later than them too. The run came in at one in the morning had a couple pulls with five gallons after that it was not so well. The guys we talked to said that the weekend is supposed to be the peak up there. Friends are heading up tonight. Waiting to hear from duluth wanting to go pretty bad. I've never been up there i want to give it a try with dip nets. Besides the wife keeps bugging me to take her with me. Good luck to who ever goes up there this weekend I would gladly appreciate any news. |

Ok people, enough is enough, I'm going tonight. It seems that a couple of "bad" reports have people sitting back and waiting for the "good report" before heading on up. I got that fishy feeling. I will report what happening before the sun comes up. See you on the beach and/or at the Lester. Woo-Hoo!!!!!!  I really do think it's time!! |

So I looked at the weather report. Yes, I'm still going. I'm going to start at the Lester. 7 foot rollers coming in at the Pointe!!! Yeh the Lester is looking real good. I know the big rollers can wash them smelt in, but 7 feet, I just don't think that I'm that hardcore.

Heading up that way this weekend with my posse. I'm not as overly convinced as they are that this weekend will be the "Gold Rush" but its our last chance to go as a group, so what the heck eh? So I will give ya the lowdown on Monday!!
We will be on the Lester, so come say hello if you are over that way! If ya see a Devilishly handsome guy, very well chiseled and all the ladies are flocking around him...that ain't me. Say hi to the homely guy in the cowboy hat. That be me. I'll buy ya a Rum...they are cheap at our fire.
