Name: cookie Upper_Red_LakeKevin, yes a extension is a good idea, Hillmens has been good for me this year,but anyone could be fine what ever you prefer. The West Wind has a state of the art fish cleaning shack 2 dollars per person can't beat it, thats where I go. I have not been to any of the other resorts cleaning facilities. COOKIE Name: Kevin Morlan Upper_Red_LakeCookie, first I would just like to say that I love your sight. I've been reading it for the last couple of weeks since I am coming up on Sunday and Monday the 16th and 17th. I was just wondering a couple things if anybody knows. Do I need an extension? What resort should I be driving out of? And is there a place for us to clean our fish? Since we will be staying in Bemidji. If anyone could help it would be great. E-mail: Guitars@cableone.net. Thank You Kevin Name: cookie Upper_Red_LakeWaiting for Wild Bill so I thought I would share some personel information with you. A guy name crazysonofsomthing ask some personel questions My father and grandmother were born and raised here.I have been coming to Red lake since I can remember,over 40 years,I have hunted north of here since I was 17 bowhunted here since I was 22. My father died in a car crash on his way home from Waskish when I was 18. My granmother passed away last year in April her name was olga Warren. There is a lake close to her old homstead that is named after my great grandfather. All I'm doing here is trying to carry on here legacy. Here is part of her obituary. Olga always welcomed visitors, her hospitality was second to none. She loved wild animals,especially bears. She had a passion for Red lake walleyes,wild blueberrys,and morel mushrooms. Many fishermen and hunters can attest to her open door and endless supply of Sweddish pancakes. That was the toughest thing i've ever wrote.I love and care more about Red lake then anyone can imagine. The fishing was great tonight see report below.
Name: cookie Upper_Red_LakeTo all fishermen go out on the lake go out at least 4 miles find a spot, no where close to anyone. If you havn't landed a crappie by 6:30pm move to a new location away from anyone because now it is prime time . If you keep doing this you will find fish. Don't give up the fish were very hungrey tonight as they havn't been feeding for a week,they were attacking my waxies befor they got to the bottom. Please respect others space there is plenty of room for all of us. COOKIE Name: cookie Upper_Red_LakeMike my house is not open as I have company that weekend,and will be pulling it off the lake. Name: cookie Upper_Red_LakeJust came off the lake the fishing was OUTSTSANDING.UNREAL,and PHENOMENAL.What a gas and what a shame to be fishing by myself. Crazy Bill will be showing up soon and I can here him now. Take me out there. I caught 25 fish, the 15 I kept were all landed by hand line on the electric jig stick,but never hed a chance to turn it on. Burnt the Pizza a little and it had a fishy tast. Lost a large crappie ,had him up the hole backwords and he peeled out the drag turned him around and when he started up the second time he got off,The big one always gets away. They are hungrey they havn't been feeding with all this unstable weather. Can only hope it stays good for all the weekenders coming up. Will watch the sun come up tomorrow from the picture window, what a sunset tonight, breath taking should of had the camera. GOOD LUCK TO my fellow fishermen.
