    If you had to plan a trip .............

    If you had to plan a trip to go fishing "tomorrow"( and it was nice out- like April/May time frame- not ice fishing). Where would it be (2hr distance limit) and why that location?

    What about that location would make you go there and what tackle would be your favorite for the location?

    Just a thought to get some reaction. I was training a guy last night and we were talking about where we were going fishing together this year. I'm jonesing for spring time.

    Pool 13, Spring Lake is all you need to know. St. Croix Flippin Stick and a St. Croix Sniper spinner bait rod.

    If you want to catch them on pool 13, do like Joe does. ( call Wags)

    Dangit, your giving away all of my secret spots and secret techniques! Just kidding, I live on 13 and can't really think of anywhere I would rather go in the spring with a 2hr limit. April/may is just so good just about anywhere on that pool.

    Pool 13 I understand, Sping Lake I do not. Are you referring to the Spring Lake Resort in Joslin? or another

    If you had to put in some where on 13 where would it be? My father in law likes Follits (sp?) at the clinton/scott border.

    Rick you and those St. Croix rods !!

    go to this site and click on map 50. The ramp below Spring Lake is good.
    Big Slough boat ramp.

    I will give you a ride like I did with Joe the one day, the look on his face was priceless when he looked down.

    JJ you name the wed and give me two days notice and I'll get it off.

    Wags, not sure how to take that :):) but any time on the water is better than staring at my lures on my workbench :)
