Its been quite the week here on the shores of upper red lake. Of course, I’ve lost track of all our customers results but we have had some great fishing with last night seeing California with Bruce and his son catching not one but two elusive but still catchable upper red lake crappies. Weve also had some family up from Christmas to just yesterday so have had some extra hosting as well. Matty our grandson that helped me last year spent quite a bit of time hanging out with his sister little brother Wesley and Justin. Oliver the dog Cortney and Sam caught quite a few overs in the Montana fish house but managed a couple under 17s there last night. Plus, Ashley poo got me the recipe for her roast beef sliders can’t wait to make them. One time we had a group that yangs wife made a cold salad that was to die for. I ask for the recipe when I got it it must have had 40 ingredients with many, I had never heard of so I never did make that it was so good. The coleslaw I make came from some guys that raced cars at Princeton.
Ben was up with his two boys in North Dakota Solly and Louie they had great fishing. Ben proposed to Shawna many years ago in Old Minnesota
Alaska also so had some great fishing with the owner of that house.
Bob who owns Colorado was here for a week. They moved twice and also had some great fishing.
Elvis showed up with a new Yeti that we will now be renting named Wyoming.
I have personally had a few hiccups with my booking but have been able to manage to make sure everyone still were able to fish with a little Scrambling. I like blaming my mistakes on getting old and not as sharp.
So far running our own access road system is working out with close to 7 miles of road, there is so much space out there to find a spot just remember on red lake the bigger the open space can the better fishing. Travel is still pretty good with good common sense; this warm weather could change the ice with pressure ridges as the ice expands.
The general was here in his wheelhouse and slammed them also catching 4 elusive yet still catchable upper red lake crappies. The second day they did the cookie shuffle and hammered them again. Dave group had old Minnesota and caught fish.
Jeff and his crew got to break in Texas one of our new 6 person sleepers They had a gas and really enjoyed that we checked in on them and also moved them once or twice I lose track.
Cory and his crew had Idaho and Tennessee for the past weekend. One of their crew drove up from Duluth and ended up in Fargo Donny Lane took over 8 hrs. to get here what normally takes 3.
Curt and Jeff are here from Oklahoma. I had asked if they had any things for decor, they brought quite a few nick knacks as people call them. A few native things and also the Sooners memorabilia as Jeff works and the collage Thanks guy much apricated.
Tracy and her crew stayed in Nevada and did really well also.
The hammers sister and Hubby Kevin also came up with their son Max, and his friends they found the motherlode of crappies with help from the cheatmaster 3,000 fish eliminator. Got a great pic of max with a trash can of fish. They also had 22 people in their fish house Friday night. Its been one busy busy week on a grand lake that owes us nothing.
