Minnesota Fishing Opener 2012- A Foggy Start


Hey, is that an island off to the right?  It was a foggy start to the Minnesota open water season this year, and in more ways than one.  This photo was taken on our way from the shack out "the spot".  One quick walleye had us optimistic, but after a quick start, it was close to an hour until walleye # 2.  We were on the water by 5:30 and fished most of the day, with only one walleye per angler to show for our efforts.  We made it through plans A, B, C, D, E, F, and G by lunch time and ran through a few more letters after lunch, while also going back to give a few others a second chance.  Other than very slow fishing, the weather was great, and the company was better.


This is "The Shack".  My good friend Jason has hosted me more times than I can count.  No electricity except for a generator, no running water, but just about as comfortable as living can be.
