My brother in law and 4 friends are leaving Sioux Falls tomorrow afternoon picking me around 8:30 tomorrow night and onto Ohio arriving around 5ish AM , unpacking, buying some provisions and hitting the water ASAP . I've been on a few fishing trips with the BIL before they say the AVERAGE walleye is 5 -6 pounds and sometimes much more!
I'm breaking out my insulated rain suit , insulated boots and lots of layers of clothes. You can always take stuff off but I hate being cold AND wet
They're trailering 2 boats and bringing all the gear so I'm just bringing clothes, food for 1 dinner and some supposedly can't miss lures ............ we'll see
Hope to post some nice pics if it turns out good. 2 years ago the weather was so bad they only got out one day and caught 1 fish so I'm prepared to drink some beer if necessary.
Fishing!

Re: Fishing!
WOW! Great trip. Had a blast with friends and caught some awesome walleyes. They don't come this big back on the Mississippi!

Re: Fishing!
Killer deal my friend. Glad it was awesome! Trout opened here in Pa recently and we had a ball. 20 caught, 9 in the freezer and 2 months to go. Cheers!

Re: Fishing!
