    I had to run up to Reeds and grab a couple chips for the solex’s.
    Got there as they were opening the doors. I was about the 20th person in line.
    Everyone was happy and smiling.
    I can’t wait til 12:01.

    Good luck everyone!

    FYI – Shiner inventory not lookin good sad

    I like when the lakes thaw, folks chase panfish and leave the river. After opener, you really have it to yourself!!!

    It’s pouring rain in Ottertail County, but i’m still ready to go out after work and get an early start. I think there might be some walleye in the river by Saturday

    Solix graphs if linked together share mapping. You don’t need one in both. Helix graphs do not

    4 bait stores around Mille Lacs were out of shiners by 230…good thing they eat sucker minnows or plastics or just about anything this time of year.
