if you could go on a fishing trip (either 1 or 2 weeks fully paid) where would you go and what type of shanty if any would you want to have.fantasy trip also includes gear of choice

---also include species you would target

Since it is fantasy.I would like to see Lake Cumberland in KY freeze solid.Never has and never will.But a huge striper out of there would be reel cool.The Ohio river would be cool also.

I was wondering about appropriate?

Fat Boy · « **Reply #11 on:** Dec 15, 2003, 11:01 PM »

Anywhere all expenses paid for 2 weeks ice fishing away from work and worry!

But, anywhere with a good slab panfish population and good walleyes too... Big roomy bungalow type shanty beds, heat, kitchen, the works...and a fish trap ready to move to find fish away from the "base". Also, must have snowmobiles at the ready, GPS, and power to recharge my flasher...

...and beer!

My Fantasy trip would have Reelfoot Lake freezing and I had all my icefishing buds with me and we had the biggest fish fry you have ever seen. With live entertainment.

skulldugary · « **Reply #16 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 07:47 AM »

Rice Lake ,all to myself..........

FullTmeDad · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 07:53 AM »

I have always wanted to fish Minnesota's Lake of the Woods. Get a sleeper fish house and stay out on the ice for the whole trip. No cell phone, a grill, some porterhouse steaks and...oh yes, BEER!

eyedoktr · « **Reply #18 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 08:31 AM »

That's a tough one. Maybe Saginaw Bay for the walleyes. They get numbers of fish and some big fish. Wherever I go I want walleyes, have a nice lodge to stay at, "nice" company, cold beer,warm meals and great fishing.
Hopefully, I'll be going up there to fish with a couple of walleye pros at the end of the season.

I have been on my fantasy trip. Lake trout and snowmobiling out if Sioux Narrows, Ontario.

I can't imagine a better trip.

vancouvercanuck · « **Reply #20 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 10:19 AM »

Any lake up in the Yukon / NWT. With all my buds, beer, bong, & b!tches.

nunzio · « **Reply #21 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 12:18 PM »

Mine was 8 straight days on the ice at LOW, but after 4 days exhaustion set in...... the drive time ( 2 hours each way plus an hour on ice) was the killer. Will try it again when my sleeper is finished.

Now..... a 2 week road trip to check out some of the "out east" ice action. Not as a comparision, just to try something different.

ojib2003 · « **Reply #22 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 09:19 PM »

No doubt i would go to Alaska.....where the small ones are able to rip out line like no tomorrow!........I've heard it is where our best fishery is on the planet......you got all the best species to fish salt or fresh.....i dunno what my commondations would be cuz im sure i'd be to tired to really care!.....Long as I got a nice bed with a pillow thats all that matters to me.......

fishin fool · « **Reply #23 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 10:00 PM »

Since it includes gear of choice, I would have to wish for an all expense paid trip fly fishing for trout in New Zealand. Sorry no frozen dreams here.

yes nunzio-HARDWATER

recall hardwater only guys

canada has better freshwater fishing for big fish than any road accessable place in alaska on the highway system, although western alaska has some great icefishing, sheefish especially, up to 60 pounds. Come to think about it, forget the north west territory, Selawik Lake for sheefish in western Alaska. and since its fantacy, a couple of nice heated shacks, with bunks for me and my buddies

Some beefy rods as well, and whatever works for sheefish, I've yet to catch one.

fishermanjake · « **Reply #25 on:** Dec 16, 2003, 11:09 PM »

in case anyone wonders what a sheefish is
