BigRock, I was kinda thinking some of us guys could get together somewhere that morning and make the drive up together. Maybe that way if someone needs some extra room for people of equipment we might be able to make it work.

I was on a bus and just happened to be sitting on a news paper. This guy came up and asked. "Are you reading that ?"
I said  yes, stood up, turned the page and sat back down.

As I have never been to Brushy, could you give me some idea where everyone is fishing ? I won't be able to get there until the middle of the afternoon.

Sounds like a good idea to me. I'll see if my BIL wants to go and maybe one other guy. Not sure where everyone lives and how they drive up to Brushy but we usually take 141 to 17 to Highway 20 which might influence where we meet.

I am on the south east side and generally run the 5/65 up to 80 then 35 north to 20. The 141 route is just as easy though. Sending you a pm with my cell # call or text as I am off work for the next couple days with a sick kid.

Sounds like this is getting to be a good turnout. I met a guy today on the ice that lives in ogden. He says there are some being caught up there so I got my fingers crossed.

My girlfriend said she'd come with. It'll be her first trip ever, severe cold hater. I just fried some gill fillets though. I think that helped. Nothing like fresh fish through the ice.
I'm gonna miss her,when I get home.

Ok everyone the way the plan sits as of know myself and a couple others are gonna be meeting up here in des moines early friday morning. Then making the drive up. If a bunch of you guys wanna meet up at the north ramp at a certain time just speak up and say so. I for one would kinda like to be fishing sometime close to daylight but if enough say otherwise I need to hear it. Over the next week or so please pm me and let me know your coming and an approximate number in your group. I would like to keep track of who is there. I am also going to make up a tag with my screen name for my hut and would be more than happy to make you guys one as well.

so right now doing a rough count im at 22-25 guys in for this. Would like to make it to 35 if we could. sounds like the fishing has picked up a little bit and I really think its just going to be better.

It is a 2 hour drive for me from Shell Rock but I'm up for it.  I'll be in MO this weekend chasing Pheasants and Chukar.

I've got room in my pickup for any one local to the Shell Rock area (non-smoker) who would like to share my fuel expense.   I have an extended cab F150 with a closed topper for gear.  I should be able to put another single man flip over in back along with mine.

I'll check back in Monday for any messages and any further details as to exact time and place and such.
take care,
Dave  :>)

Dave I believe the plan now is there will be some of us meeting in des Moines and then most of the group meeting at the north ramp around daylight. I know some won't make it till later but that's not a big deal as I will be flying the militia flag on my truck so everyone can find me. I will also update our main location here on the forum along with posting my cell # the day of. If you guys need to get ahold of me for any reason feel free to pm me.

As of right now I have room for one guy to ride with and help share in the fuel bill. Other wise we may consolidate some gear and run three guys in one truck. If anyone wants to go get in touch with me

OK guys its getting down to crunch time. I hate to sound needy but I was wondering how may of you guys are bringing quads and how may are planning to drive out. I myself am planning on driving out if possible but I would like to have a plan in place if that is not possible. I would hate to have the whole group contained in one are cause noone wants to walk a long ways. I would even be willing to help someone with the gas to operate their quad if needed.

I don't own a quad so I'll be driving out.  I'm hoping a four wheel drive pickup can make it around on the ice.
take care,

why does it seem that ALL get-togethers are ALWAYS the same weekend as the state AAU wrestling tournament.... I have maps that are waaay better than anything out there, been fishing 5 days a week all year, am pretty sure I've got brushy patterned for late season walleyes (north ramp is 12 minutes from my front door).... AND I CAN'T GO!!!!!    :'(
