    Just wanted to mention it was June 25-28. Fun, fishing oriented event to take the family. Way more stuff for wive’s then men but nice. I accidently caught it last year for the first time with my wife and it was cool. Middle of the day live band in the street. I’m plannng on taking her again this year. We go in the middle of the day and dont stay long but I’ll bet the nights are really fun too!

    I heard they were gonna have free shuttle service to this place just north of town…. I think the place was called something like the Phipps?? My wife really enjoys hearing about going to that place. Or maybe not.

    How does a musky fest post turn into a strip club discussion?
    There’s one of those babies right near my cabin in Trego too but it looks pretty discusting from the outside. Never been in yet.

    Sure, now you are going to make me remember everyone’s name. As for boating and fishing, Nelson was a superb lake to fish. I remember getting into a bunch of walleyes the first trip up there in a NW bay filled with wood. Never produced much after that, but we used to love the first ice trip there to fish ‘eyes and panfish. Great place and even greater people!!!

    That’s what I keep hereing is it’s a great lake. And great people. I’m excited to get there and get some fish and slide up to the bar and a good camp fire at night. To me the priorities are perfect. Fish and relax

    you will probably catch a ton of stunted largemouth bass unless it’s gotten better over the last 5 years or so..

    I’m leaving after work today then gone until July 7! I know the time will go way too fast. Not sure when I’m hitting Musky Fest. Either Friday afternoon/evening or Sat sometime. Going with a group so I cant run the show. If it were my choice I’d go a couple hours early Sat. I got all next week to fish. Would have been nice to hook up with one of the regulars up there. Plan to go bassin on Spooner Lake at least once along with my other goto spots. Mostly fish my lake.

    I’ll be on Nelson Friday the 26 thru Tuesday the 30th. Got the father inlaws rig too so I can’t wait to put it thru the paces.
