On the Chain we catch fish all the way to Ice up casting. You just need to slow it way down, Gliders like HellHounds and Phantons that you can run deeper at a really slow pace are key and soft plastics like dogs and tubes realy work well. Right now…

I agree, Very, Very tough Conditions. It seems that the fish were scattered and had no real pattern and of course the wind and barometric pressure change mid morning did not help. Chris and I picked 6 spots to fish and stuck with them and it paid of…

IMTT matched a 600 donation from the Shawnee Club this weekend, giving us a payout for the state tourney of: 800-1st 400-2nd, in addition to some tires. We are debating much change for next year, stay tuned...

Congrats Russ, you should be very proud of yourself and Chris. You were very close to the triple crown- but your feat is no less impressive, you put yourself in position to win it, but good for Frank and Rich, returning to the leaderboard! I won a Rodd Umlauf Musky Print so I did not go home empty handed! Also had a st croix snap during a cast (thankfully not during a fight)- so I have a new rod to pick out- any suggestions in the st croix lineup?

Russ- you ever been to Anastasias in Antioch for Pizza? That is some really good pie! We were out there last Saturday. Also stopped at Sequiot Creek Northwoods Lodge Bar- a neat place to grab a beer for sure!! I looked at the forecast, and it isn't too shabby for the tourney. Good luck to you and Chris and see you then!
