Last minute Ice Fishing post

Hey Guys,

I thought I would quick post this before our spring turkey season starts.

Went fishing on Lake of the woods in the North West Angle of U.S. If you look on the map its the little square that shoots north out of MN. It was really cool b/c we had to cross the border into Canada and then back in to the states. We stopped at a little booth at called the U.S. and checked back in. We traveled 8 miles on the ice to our lodge, which is on an Island. As always, it was the B.S. and fun that made the trip. Me and the rest of the party had good fishing, not great, but good fishing. I had the biggest fish pictured above at 26". It was a thrill getting her through the hole. See you at Turkey Camp. BG.

Decoys and Turkeys

Getting excited about this year’s turkey hunt. I was pouring over the photos from last year and discovered an amazing situation. With the exception of a Tom in full strut on a warm sunny morning, I never particularly thought turkeys were all that beautiful. I have noticed in reviewing the photos that Orlans turkey from last year warrants 1st place in the “Ugliest Turkey Competition”. I also noticed that it bears a disturbing resemblance to one or more of the contestants in last year’s “Ugliest Decoy Competition” (see photos). So I can only conclude that the ugliest decoys do indeed attract the ugliest turkeys! New competition this year! I peed myself during the decoy competition last year….
