MN Fisher

While Bemidji was my main 'fishing hole' when I lived up there...I have fished Beltrami, Turtle, Little Bass and Big Bass on several occasions. Part of my open water SCUBA training was in Big Bass. Some days, I miss living up there.

Hang around the street corners trying to sell some too?

Changed quite a bit since I left NE back in '74

Even if we had some open water here - it's still 50 days till bass season opens.

Note that my instructions above relate to Samsung phones. Some other brands don't have all the photo options that the Samsungs do. Found that out talking with @volzfan59

Reason I'm subscribed to 'Matt Johnson Outdoors' on YouTube. One of his regular lakes is Minnetonka. The Feiderman has also put out vids through various sites where he fishes 'Tonka...it is his declared home lake.

Where-as I've been a 'computer geek' for over 50 years. I may not have the latest-and-greatest, but I can still work it all.

Oh come on, Steve...I live my life by a quote from Isaac Asimov "The day you stop learning is the day you begin decaying." And remember that we're only a couple months apart in age...

All the fishing info you need is here at BR between the Articles, Videos and Forums.

If it's an Android phone Bring the pic up in the Camera app Tap on the 'pen' to edit Tap on the 3-dots on the right-bottom One of the options is 'Resize'. Pick the size you want, then save or tap the 3-dots again and 'Save as Copy' if you want to keep the original...then post the resized version.

Star Brite products are solid. Being as most of the hull of my F-9 is unpainted - I use their Aluminum Cleaner to keep it looking good.

Since I'm still pants at skipping with casting gear, I have a MH/F spinning rig to skip heavier lures like jigs with...though it has a 2500 reel on it with 20# braid.

Ya, little harder for you ladies to hide what you're doing, Katie.

That's about like some of mine.

One in the top 8 Other four down in the 30s. Come on guys.

Matt and Tim at Tactical just put out a 'budget combo' vid this morning. They also recommend the Aird-X/Revros combo.

^ Listen to the man where part of his job was enforcing boat regulations on the 'high seas'...he knows what he's talking about.

Tash is 'gender-fluid' - meaning that sometimes they consider themselves a 'he' and sometimes they're a 'she'. Ergo - the they/them pronoun. Has no relation to being gay...so 'gaydar' would not register.

FG should be fine - that's what I use for night-before prep with YZH. If I need to replace a leader on the water - Alberto

When I rebuilt the F-9, I used LED hull mounted for the bow instead of the dome style. Several people, including a DNR EO commented that it 'looked cool' - and the DNR EO even mentioned that 'Yes, we know that they're valid and legal'.

My spinner/chatter rig is a 7'0" MH/MF with 15#FC - not quite as much 'give' as a full Mod, but enough backbone to set the heavier hooks and enough action to keep them pinned.

Long as it wasn't a 3-hour tour. Myself - I could probably go two seasons Will I? Probably not.

On a fast rod, definitely. And don't assume that 'new out of the package' hooks are sharp...I've come across dull ones.

And Brian has gone classic with B&W photos. Any catch is a good catch....
