We headed out bright and early for the 1st of a few trips to the gorge for this extended bash. The sunrise was awesome as we rolled thru the wind farms

Arriving at buckboard we were a bit early so we went down to the shore and tossed some stuff around but had no love on what ever we thru at them. We decided to go up and wait to check in and that's when the snow started to fly and it came in more than once on this weekend. not dropping more than a few inches at most. After a bit of a wait and a short drive out lost dog we arrived at our location for the weekend.

The ice tents provided us with a nice sleeper for the weekend and my 949i worked great. No condensation and the heater was only on low. Some of our other friends had already staked the spot to the south of us and ill tell you im bringing my boat next time as this is the only way to get good numbers of burbot this time of year

Now I didn't get any pics the 2nd night as we were pretty busy hooking up and missing, I mean alot of missing of fish. We ended up with 8 burbot, 10 bows and 5 pups that left the lake with us on sunday morn. Ton_def made it up Saturday and started us off on the burb's. Also met shanty member Bighof and them boys from team bent rods tore it up with 1st place on most caught with 180 fish. All In all we had a great trip and will be back real soon. Tightlines everyone

What a good weekend! Good fishing, good people, and minus a few quick storms, decent weather! Not a bad start to the next 2 months of the tourney. Like you had said Musky, if it starts this early next year, a boat is a must!
