I hear ya there.  I'm hoping for next week saturday.  We'll have to see if the forecasters completely blow it again.

Ok Fellas, a week from next tuesday the west metro MN will be fishing.  I know, because that's when i'm taking the new portable out, ice or not.  I'm planning walleye dinner that night.

Paradice - hope your portable is on a deep and wide sled if there's no ice.  Maybe you could attach a trolling motor for those walleyes.  Anyway - good luck fishing no matter what weather you have.  Here in Manitoba we've now got 6" on the prime walleye spots in the Red River, and I'll be out for the first time on Sunday.

Ah who knows.  I've gotta work till the 20th, then i'm making it home for christmas for about 2 weeks, and i'm gonna hit it hard then.  The forecast is looking good, i just hope it holds.  i can't wait to load up my new Eskimo III fishhouse.  that's like a collapsable(?) cabin it's so huge.

Best of luck to you too, I can taste fresh fish already.
