I've been looking for a 2003-06 1800 Lund Pro-V, Ranger 1850 Reata, Alumacraft Tounrament Sport 185 or a similar boat, but haven't been able to find "the one." Let me know if there's for sale up there!

Hi Justin

Didn't spend to much money this winter, I did get a new Diawa reel that I plan on using for jigging this spring.

It is hard to belive that we will heading up north in less than a month, hope there will be no problems with opening up. Seems there is always something, we just need to keep them to a minimum.

Have a good week

Paul

Hey Tom,

Welcome to the board!!

You and Barb will love your new revo toro reels. Did you get the high speed or the regular 5.4:1 ratio? I picked up one of each over the winter myself after getting one for my wife last year.

They had a good special involving revos at the MN Muskie Expo so I could justify the purchase of that one. HA!

You must have 3-4 black/silver jakes in the box just in case something bad happens to the one that you have been throwing so much the last year.

We'll try to corral a couple of big fish for you to harass on the opener. If the weather holds and the water stays low..the shallow bays will be dry land and the fish will be on the rocks!! HA!

Hey Jeff,

You are probably up here as I write this so I can't tell you to stop over and say hello this trip.

Can't wait to see that big screen on the ranger! You must have scored two of the few winches that were left in north America...we couldn't get one at the expo in MN..at least not from someone that had a special on. I'm waiting on a back order from pure fishing for a couple of those bad boys.

More baits? I thought you only used top raiders and stump hawgs up here?
