Hello,
My name is Bob and I am a Fishaholic ;D.
I am 44 years old and live on a hobby farm on Da Range.? I have 2 children who are the light of my life.? ?Lizzy is 8 and Jake is 11.? They both love to fish with dad and we do lots of fishing, camping and soon hunting together.
My favorite place in the world is on Basswood Lake in the BWCA.? It is heaven on earth to me.
I will start hitting other places now that I have purchased a bigger boat with a 40 hp.? Basswood has kept me limited to 25 hp up until now.? I bought the bigger rig so we can more safely fish places like Upper Red, LOW and Mille Lacs.
I am addicted to fishing forums, and also have a penchant for barely pop.
Oh yea, I am working on a long over due divorce and my outdoor time has increased greatly and will continue to do so ;D.

I will be 55 in a couple of months, been married 31 years, its been very good. We still go out on dates!!! I have a daughter 28 a son 22 both good kids. I love to fish, restore old tractors do some wood working. My latest project is working on our 40 acres a half mile from Red Lake. The electricity is going into the property soon. Trails are being developed...it is great fun. I was a Kawasaki and Ski Doo dealer for ten years, the past twenty years I have been working with the mentally handicapped and also obtaining and developing homes for this population. I live on the outskirts of Wadena on 16 acres. I enjoy going out for coffee with the guys almost every morning. I also enjoy having a whiskey or two!!!!

I will be 33 in June. I have been married for 10 years. I have four wonderful kids (2 boys & 2 girls) ages 10, 7, 3, 1. I enjoy hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, softball, golf...just about anything out doors. My family owns 2 cabins on URL (it's one of my favorite places to spend time). My boys are tagging along on my duck and pheasant hunts . They can't wait to upgrade from their bb guns. I live in Owatonna, grew up in Isanti, attended college in Winona. I work for Midwest Wireless. I like a capt'n cokes now and again (or again and again)!

Hi I'm GRIZ
Been going through a divorce for last few yrs. I have a couple kids daughter (15) and a boy (3). I love the outdoors trappin, hunting or fishing with my biggest passion being trapping. If it was legal I'd snare deer and trap fish. My reasoning is it'd be a bigger challenge. Ya couldn't get by with getting within shooting range or casting distance. You'd have to get to the exact few inches where the critter is going to be. A few other things I enjoy doing are digging roots e.g. ginseng, have never dug mushrooms but would like to do that sometime.

I'm 41 with 3 kids, we live in Mankato Mn. I enjoy fishing and everything outdoors and found this website from a link on another site.
I have a few friends that i'll tell about the site.

39 nand happily married with 4 kids, love to take the kids out fishing and walking in the woods.
I work in Minneapolis as a technician for a phone company, looking for a different job though. ;D
I really enjoy this site, I am a member of a few other webistes and this seems to be one of the best, it's in my favorites now.

I'm Lee Borgersen and will be 61 yrs old in June. Married for 41 yrs, 8 months, and 1 day so far. Have two sons 32 & 36 along with one cat named Max. I've been elected to the sites pro staff and hope to contribute some interesting information. I live in IL and I'm a full time fishing guide in S/E WI.
So far the only member from this site that I've had the pleasure to meet in person was Dr. Bob when up on Basswood Lake. Every year I head up to the BWCA for a 3 week stay. For me it's a very sad moment when my annual Basswood pilgrimage comes to an end. So, I always remove hat, look back at Basswood Lake, bow my head and thank The Lord for the wilderness experience. Then I wipe that one big tear from my cheek and head for home till next year.
I love the state of MN and wish I could be a resident instead of just a wannabe. All of my vacation time for the last 30 yrs has been spent in the Ely, MN area and I've established a lot of great friendships in the area. One of my favorite moments is when a client takes the time at days end to tell me the he's learned a lot on his guided trip.

Xplorer, AKA Chris.....44 years young and still able to hump a 16' loaded Lund with a 25 over the portages into Basswood ;) (thats for you Harold, ;D ;D)? Been married to the same fantastic wife for 17+ years, and have an almost 4 year old son who thinks he's 10.
He's had the childhood I would have loved, i counted and he has already spent 42 nights tent camping on the islands of Namakan and Kabetogama lakes with the folks (15 more this summer too).
Voyageurs National park is my personal nirvana on earth, plan to spend 4 months each year of my retirement cruising its waters on a houseboat, and every possible day i can until that time!!?
Been able to spend some quality boat time with Doc Bob and Harold, and there are no 2 finer gents to spend a day in the boat with than these guys.?
Live outside cloquet and enjoy trolling on Lake Superior, fishing for eyes, and spending time with the family sledding, camping and hiking out west in the Rockies.
Xplorer
-
Thanks for the kind words Chris! Good to see you here buddy!
I can hardly wait for my guided adventure to Namakan ;D.
-
Chris - There ain't no 44 year old alive that humps a loaded fishing boat over the portages better than you!
As Doc & I were talking this weekend, really looking forward to getting up to Namakon with ya.? We don't get many chances to hang out on the water.? This should be a dandy!
-
Welcome X Man
So far no enviro wacko's have infiltrated this site.? With you here at Harold's side I'm sure you guys will keep them in line if they penetrate the front lines. :police:
What ever you do don't let Montana find out about this site. :-X
-
Well that makes at least 4 of us here now who are kinda partial to Basswood.
I wonder if there is more? ;D
If you are lurking feel free to yump right in :).
-
You're right SMG.? The tree huggin, granola munchin, keep people out the forest Monty's might find a little different point of view here.
-
Morning Jim, good? to see your alive and well ;D
I can tell you one thing, as fun as Basswood is, I wont mind (and my back will thank me profusely!) just dropping the rig in the water and letting 90 horses haul the three of us to wherever we're going.? Only 65 days til "Operation Voyageurs" commences, you still planning on driving up to my place on that wednesday night??
Have yourselves a good long weekend, I'm taking Junior over to grandma/grandpa's on saturday and he's staying for the week, so ma and I get a week alone ;) ;)......actually ma's on-call all weekend and we have a couple landscape projects to get done, and it's amazing how much more gets done when we are "Junior-less" for a couple days:)
Xplorer
-
It's good to see some new faces in here. Welcome to MNO everyone.
-
Ya Chris - Still planning on Wednesday night. Actually just turned my time in for those days off today. Are we planning on coming out on Sun or Mon?
-
You guys can't be starting ahead of me!? That would not be fair :police:.
You have doctor's orders to come up and spend Wednesday evening at the Main Clinic.? This is so the Doctor may administer intense hydraulic therapy to you before we leave on this adventure.? It could be vital in the long term to take this extra precaution :o.
-
Jim and Doc,
I need to come back out on sunday, we usually break camp late morning and head out around noonish. Doc, we will definitly plan on heading up to your place Wednesday. If the weather is decent we could even think about heading all the way up and setting up camp. Wouldnt take but a few minutes to load your stuff in my truck and head out.
Have yourselves a great weekend ;D ;D
-
Excellent - I love it when a plan comes together ;D
-
Sweet ;D ;D ;D.

My name is Jeff, I'm 33 years young and live in Andover. I have been involved in hunting and fishing my whole life. I am married and have two boys who are 7 and 5. I do most of my fishing on Leech Lake, where I have a lake home, and do most of my hunting in the Glenwood area on property that my dad and had passed down to us from my late grandfather. My favorite part of fishing is being able to watch my boys reel in fish, I enjoy the catch just as much as them. I have been on other websites like this and this one is by far the best, keep up the good work fellas.
-
Name is Jeff (clever screen name huh?). 27 years old. 5 year anniversary was in May with a wonderful understanding wife. 7 month old daughter was our first. She was born Oct. 14th last year and unfortunately caused me to miss my first MN pheasant opener in 8 years. Oh well, it was worth it. Still trying to convince my wife I can go on opener this year and be back in time for the 1st b-day party. Pheasant hunting (along with training my 4 year old yellow lab), followed by bass fishing, followed by ice fishing for anything are the things I spend all of my free money on. I pretty much enjoy doing anything outdoors but the Chief Financial Officer (the wife) limits my spending money therefore I have had to prioritize to the three aforementioned activities. I enjoy walleye fishing and hunting pretty much anything I can find time to hunt. Live in Watertown in a housing development for now (until we find that perfect house on 5 acres on a lake). Work as a beancounter (accountant) for a publicly traded engineering company in Eden Prairie for now (until the wife starts making six figures by herself then I will be Mr. Mom).
I have never been to the BWCA and have a great desire to get familiar with the world famous Basswood lake. It's only a matter of time when our kids get old enough. I don't want them to miss out on things like that like I did.
-
.? This is so the Doctor may administer intense hydraulic therapy to you before we leave on this adventure.? It could be vital in the long term to take this extra precaution :o.
Whoa Doc yur scarin' me!!! :o :o ;D
-
Sorry Hawk, didn't mean to scare ya. 8)
Welcome Jeff(s),
If you ever want info on Basswood just give me a hollar. I am pretty familiar with the east end (motor zone) of it anyway. I'll be headed that way a week from tomorrow.

Welcome to MNO Kygal. :) I'd like to see some of your pictures too.
The easiest way to post pictures on this site is to use the uploader provided in the forums. When your replying to a message, click on "additional options" this will open up several options for you, click on browse and it will browse your computer for your pictures, select the one you want to post and its done. No hosting site necessary if you do it this way. The only negative is sometimes you will have to resize your photos.

HI,
I WORK WITH LEECH ANGLER AND HE SHOWED ME THIS SITE. I CURRENTLY LIVE IN COON RAPIDS AREA AND HAVE ONLY LIVED IN MINNESOTA JUST OVER A YEAR. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INTERESTED IN HUNTING AND FISHING. I HAVE FISHED IN THE OCEAN MOST OF MY LIFE AND NOW I AM READY TO START HUNTING. I DID A LITTLE PHEASANT HUNTING LAST SEASON AND I WAS HOOKED. THATS WHERE I CAME UP WITH THE NAME DUKE. DUKE IS ACTUALLY MY NINE MONTH OLD GERMAN SHORTHAIR. I LOVED PHEASANT HUNTING SO MUCH I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT DUKE. THIS WILL BE HIS FIRST HUNTING SEASON AS WELL. HE HAS ALREADY HAD STARTED DOG TRAINING AND HE WILL BEGAN ANOTHER MONTH LONG TRAINING IN SEPT. JUST OUTSIDE OF CAMBRIDGE AT THE KENNEL WHERE WE BOUGHT HIM. I BOUGHT HIM FROM RAINBOW KENNELS AND I'LL TELL YOU WHAT THIS DOG IS AMAZING. EVEN BEFORE HIS TRAINING, I CAN'T WAIT TO GET HIM OUT IN THE FIELD. WELL I GUESS THAT'S IT FOR NOW.
BYE DUKE
-
Welcome to MNO Duke. Sounds like you got yourself a great pup. You may find a few of us around here that like to chase the old ditch parrots. In fact, there has been some recent rumblings over in the "Events/Get Together" forums about a MNO pheasant hunt in September. Your welcome to come along. Will the pup be back from training by then? There is no better way to get that pup on some birds than a trip to the game farm.
-
Glad to see you got on here Duke. I think you'll really enjoy this site, I've been on several of the other sites like this and this one is the best. Good guys and gals on here, with a good variety of information.
-
Welcome Duke!?
The pup sounds great!? I envy you, I can hardly wait to get my next one. There is nothing like watching a good dog come of age.? They just get better and better as the years go by (just like us ol'docs? ;)) .
Ya I kinda like to chase them ditch parrots too :D.? I am kicking around that get-together idea and hope I can pull it off somehow.? I guess it depends on if the kids are home that weekend and how the cash flow is going by then.? How do you guys feel about young guns on this shindig?? This is my sons first year and I'd like to take him if he happens to be home then.? He is a good boy and I have started him on shooting trap so he has some, and will have more, experience by then.? I also have a Golden Retriever who knows her way around those silly colored birds and is pretty good mannered too.
Leech Angler Welcome too! Sorry I didn't catch you earlier, I have not been keeping up as well as I'd like lately. You are right about your comments on the site and its membership.? I like it here too, thats why I decided to help out.
I had to come back and add something - Duke, I got a question for you.? Where on the Ocean have you been fishing?? I was out on the Atlantic off R.I. one time the year before last. We caught a bunch of Blue Fish but the charter sucked :-[.

My hobbies are breeding dogs(23yrs) and my Belgian Draft Horses.

Good morning all. I'm here to introduce myself but not sure how to properly proceed. Don't want to sound like a pompous a**. Guess I'll start by freely and openly admitting that I consider Dr Bob and jigglestick to be friends of mine. Mygawd! I'm shot down allready? ;D ;) I'm a retired Auld Phart, married 40+ years(All to the same girl) and I live in Warroad,MN. Actually I only really live when I'm on the water. When I was still working, I owned my own beauty salon and suntanning studio in Uptown Mpls.(Yes vickiechessie, I'm an old "hairbender" too!) Did that for 29+ years. Now I occupy my time by trying to fish every available minute I can, cutting wood for my sauna, living vicariously on the Internet, and just try to stay out of trouble with the law. I see quite a few familiar names here so I feel at home allready. I won't divulge my secret "honey holes" but more than happy to share anything I know related to fishing. All I ask is that you not judge me by the guy's I like to hang out with! :o :angel: :laugh: ;) DIRTBALL2 ;)
-
:laugh: WELCOM DIRTBALL2, like your intro. down to earth and out front. you dont sound any differant then the rest of the members. a lot of info and good laughs, its a great site!

jigglestick, Hey you Auld Phart! Who you calling an auld phart! :laugh: Mygawd! There are so many familiar names here that I used to see on that "other site!" Feels like old home week. So this is where you all went. Mostly I came over here cuz I missed your rambling missives about all the members of your motley crew. Also had to keep an eye on that wonderful molder of character, Dr Bob. I've allready met one great member of this site, david stelter. Sure have enjoyed BS'ing with him. I'm trying to dazzle him into buying the 6HP Evinrude I have for sale. I knew right away that he was cool when I told him he had to submit a resume listing his better qualities before I could sell him this pearl of all outboardmotordom. Just wanted to make sure it was going to a good home. He didn't bat an eye and sent me a resume although I think he was having a hard time typing cuz he seemed to be laughing a lot. Anyway, I thought he was a very cool dude. Moochass, grassyass for the very nice welcome. Looking forward to BS'ing with you guy's! ;D :laugh: ;) DIRTBALL2 ;)
-
Thanks for the warm welcome all ;D I look forward to sharing some good stories.

I never pitched a shoe in my life until the IBOT fest. I've actually been looking at getting a set of my own shoes and practicing a bit.
-
Hey There. Im Alex from Andover. I went with A-Rod cuz I someone called me that once and it doesn't get as many questions as Stinkyfingers. Im a 30 YO working in software support. I love to fish and do most of it up at the cabin on Edward. I've been trying to find time to get into bird hunting but I haven't been able to convince the wifey that guns and outdoors are a great way to keep our 4 YO out of trouble. I have a 1YO girl and 4YO boy. I have about 5% intrest in a yellow lab that got evicted from our house when the girl was born. ::) Take it easy!
-
Welcome to the site A-Rod. If you ever do get that gun your welcome to come along with me. My wife was the same way, but my oldest is going to carry his new youth shotgun for the first time this fall. ;)
-
Thanks. Ill keep it mind. Since were not heading nort dis weekend Im thinking Ill take the kid over to Game Fair. If I can get him talking in a language other than wine I think itll score some points with the head mistress.
-
Welcome A-Rod

I was a big walleye nut until I was 21. Then I went bass fishing (and I don't mean circling the lake throwing a northland spinnerbait). I haven't been walleye fishing since although I still catch a bunch every year. I'm 26 and spend all year bass fishing until the water freezes. Then I get drunk and go ice fishing like everybody else.
-
hay y'll i'd be Jon aka? iceman ..

iceman, I think maybe I have met you on another forum in the years past?

I try to hunt but the dang gun keeps missin them critters. ::) I like to fish but spend to much time on my snowmobiles or ATVs, playing with the kids or working. I am in the process of learning how to trap coon and other little critters so when the season opens I may have an inckling of what to do. Will start bow hunting on Tuesday.
-

I'm not along the Big Tamarack. I am south of wash kish abit. I am really not far from the little Tamarack back in the woods very close to the Kooch/Beltrami county line.

Pointblank,
I have deer hunted (on the state land) many times out by that area. We also like to grouse hunt by the Lost River too.

I am 42, Married (twice) 3 kids, 19,16,4 I live in South Range WI but I do alot of fishing in MN as well as WI. Hoping next year I can afford to hunt some in MN as well.
I truely am a fishahollik, I have had this screen name for about 5 years now. Its even my e-mail addy.
When all else fails, go fishing, if they don't bite, remember, its called fishing, not catching, for a reason.

Oh ya, thats a different Griz...LOL

Hey guys and gals,
My name is John I am jumping ship from another site (IDA) that has left a sour taste in my mouth. Hopefully I will find a bunch of people that like to hunt and fish as much as I do. I just do not agree with everything that is said on that site.
A little bit about me, there is nothing better to do in this world than duck hunt and ice fish. Those are the 2 things that I like to do the most. In fact I was out killing ducks today with my dad. We shot a banded goose along with another 2 hen green wings,hen mallard, drake woody and a hen woody.
I also work for my uncle who is a taxidermist. I am the guy that gets the stuff ready. Skinning, fleshing prep work. It is fun and super good to have a unlce that will mount your stuff in his spare time so I am lucky that way.
Looking to have fun on this site :police:
-
WELCOME WACKER!! :)
we are glad you found us here at MNoutdoorsman. what I like to say is if you like what you see here, tell a couple friends about it.
remember that any website that has any number of members, will also have many different points of view. those views sometimes clash. if we all keep in mind that we are all here to take a break and enjoy ourselves, it becomes easier to accept different points of view whether we agree with them or not.
there is no power struggle here. no brownie points for butt kissers. no feathers in the caps of the most active posters.
just an open format for anyone to come in and participate or just sit back and read.
so like I said, WELCOME!!
I hope you enjoy your stay.
-
Looking to have fun on this site? :police:
I am here for the same reason......and if the fun ever ends i'm outta here ;D
So lets keep it fun and relaxed!

I was a big walleye nut until I was 21. Then I went bass fishing (and I don't mean circling the lake throwing a northland spinnerbait). I haven't been walleye fishing since although I still catch a bunch every year. I'm 26 and spend all year bass fishing until the water freezes.

If you don't mean "circling the lake throwing a northland spinnerbait" than what do you mean......??

Hello All!
Its a quiet night up here on the pond and I am a little bored myself. As soon as the wind calms I am hitting the lake! I just found this site tonight. I have to say I am glad I did. This is really cool. I have not spent much time on-line but today we got high speed internet so maybe I will use it more. I am a full-time fisherman up here on Mille Lacs. I am 42 years old and have been in these part my whole life. I was born and raised in Aitkin and lived around the lake since then. I'm going to break the 30 in. mark tonight. I'm getting pretty pumped.
Anyways, neat place and thanks.
Tom

I,m new to the site this month, but have been following it since summer.
I,m 41 married with 2 kids-1 of each M=15 F=11. Live in SE Metro. My son loves hunting & fishing, & my daughters quote is "Dad, guns aren't just for boys" Got back into fishing a few years ago so own a boat. My college roommate turned me onto pheasant hunting about 7-8 years ago and am now hooked. Have 2 Goldens-10yrs & 6 months, so am working on training for the first time.
-
My name is Rob Gross, of Spring Grove , Minnesota. I am the Houston County Veteran Service Officer in Houston County MN.
In my freetime, I teach a local youth fishing program in SE Minnesota called The Fishing Tree, www.thefishingtree.com (http://www.thefishingtree.com) . I try not only to educate children (young & not so young) on fishing, species, habitat, lure selection and techniques, but also try to equip them with proper gear to start them off right. I dedicate much of my free time towards this venture. I'm a heavy advocate of the 'Take a Kid Fishing' approach in hopes of building a new generation of angler and ensuring a strong love for fishing in the Midwest .
I also run The Fishing Tree Bass Guide Service on the Mississippi River Pools 8 & 9 and The Fishing Tree Trout Guide Service on numerous streams in SE Minnesota and NE Iowa with all profits above expenses going to support local youth fishing. And for fun I design bass lures and am currently working toward the production of a new line of frog lures.
-
;D sounds like a busy life and a worthy one at that! MORE POWER to your MENTOR SHIP, and working with all those future fisher boys and girls fish on and on and """ ;D 8)

Brent her. Just found the site today from an email. 33 years old. I work for BASF as a lab tech in shakopee where we develop industrial coatings, sealants, waterproofers....anything that goes on or in concrete. Live in Maple Grove MN. Got hooked into muskie fishing 3 years ago so that takes up 95% of my time on the water. I fish about 3 times a week out of my 92 17.5 sportfish. Ice fishing I generally turn to crappies or flaggin for big fish but can occasionally make time for a walleye outing. I fish mainly west mertro lakes including sarah, eagle, medicine, tonka and fish lake. I try and make one trip to URL a year and occasionally millelacs. I also get into deer rifle season with little success so giving bow hunting a shot next year. The only problem is that it will be hard to pick between bow hunting and the late fall muskie/pig walleye fishing.
Great site as far as I have seen so far.
-
thanks moby1
welcome to MNO!
do you do any tip uping for muskies?
I am going to have a few guys up from duluth to work over the lake across the road. it is a good muskie/walleye lake.
some hogs in there to.
you are sure welcome to join us if you like.
make sure to add us to your favorites and stop back often!

Welcome aboard moby1!

Hello , Just joined today looks like a great site. My name is Joe , married with first kid on the way. I have a 3 year old Vizsla that keeps me out after the birds and also enjoy deer hunting. Looking forward to some more cold and snow so I can get to my fishhouse on mille lacs. Nice to meet you all and I'll see you around.
-

-
My house is at Hunters Point, on the east side of the lake in case your not familiar.
-

Thanks for the welcome, I actually get up that side of the lake more often. My wifes family has a place on Farm Island Lake just north of there.

Hi I am Lennie. I wan't to thank all of you guys for welcoming me to your website. About me, I am originaly from Michigan I lived there all my life. I moved to MN in 1991 just for a change of life. All though there is a lot of good deer hunting and fishing in Michigan I still had to check out MN. I was here in MN for 13 years I do have to admit you have some big crappies here all though we do have big steel head and salmon. I lived in Michigan/ indiana border line. 8 miles north of southbend Indiana. I really haven't seen to many big bucks here, maybe because the only land I have to hunt on is state land (carlos avery) I live in Rogers MN and I did kill a 11 point buck behind the house I am living at with permision from the land owner. I have pictures on the website if you want to take a look. I'm very much a outdoor person, hunting fishing of all sorts. I would like to get to know one of the members here to hook up has a hunting buddy, fishing buddy, etc. Just to share each other stories. I'm always eager to learn new tatics on hunting and fishing. I am 53 and been hunting and fishing since I was 4 years old. So I've pretty much seen it all. and if I would die to day I could say I have been well blessed by God to hunt and fish on his land. Thank you guys for you time. I hope to hear from someone of you guys to share stories and maybe plan a hunting or fishing trip. If you get tired of fishing or hunting by yourself all you have to do is shake a worm in front of my face let me smell gun powder or put a arrow in front of my face and I'm gone. lol Thanks guys hope to hear from someone.

Thank you outdoor_junkie for the good coment on my buck. It was over in a matter of 3 minnutes but one of the best 3 minn of my life. I got him right behind the house about 300 yards. I would say he was about a 4 1/2 to 5 year old deer. He weighed in at 200 pounds. So thanks again for the coment and nice meeting you. Hope we can hook up sometime to drown a worm or bust a cap or snap a string. lol

Great site guys!
I am 45 , live in Chaska, grew up in Baudette where my parents owned a resort on LOW, where I guided for years . I probably caught more walleyes growing up than most guys dream about catching their entire life. I still love to fish for anything that swims. I will hunt most anything that breathes with gun or bow. I absolutely love the outdoors and any excuse to be in pursuit of something outdoors works for me. I own my own business now, so I don't get away as much but, get out a lot with my bow near home. I am married to a beautiful and completely (most days) understanding wife. I have two sons, 13 & 16 they both hunt and fish, they older one seems a bit more interested in the" two legged" does these days, who can blame him? He's 16! My 13 year old is my outdoor bud and we spend lot's of time pursuing fish and game. I love to play cribbage, even while fishing! My friends all think I'm a bit "twisted" and I say thanks for the compliment! Anyone can be normal, It takes an extra effort to be "weird or twisted!" Life it short so enjoy and spend as much time as you can Outdoors, and Indoors only if it's an icehouse, bow or gun range or Cabala's! When I am stuck indoors I usually read about the outdoors, usually with a Capt- n- Coke.
Don't get me wrong I love beer but it fills me up and is hard on my figure! :) Best of luck to all of you in your pursuits, both indoors and out! Monday morning, If you stuck at work and want to be outdoors, just think "Faw' Kinn' Ae' it's only 5 more days to the weekend!
-
Greetings everyone...
Name is Terry Ohlgren (biggero) and teach at a small school west of Alexandria, MN. Have a lovely wife Shelley (#2) and 2 wonderful daughters 16 and 12.Â
Grew up in rural MN and love the outdoors hunting, fishing, and golf.
This is a great site and a bunch of good fellows on it.
Met Dan Brown the other day and what a fantastic individual, if you ever want to take up flyfishing, he would be the gent to spend the afternoon learning that darn fly pole with.
I have and cherish 2 hunting dogs; Mo (Black Lab) and Zin (Wirehair Pointer) who are great buds to spend outdoors in hot pursiut of ringnecks.
-
Hi everyone. I'm a new member here. It was enjoyable reading all the intro's. I'm 51 and enjoy fishing and hunting. It consumes much of my time. I have my roots in southern MN farm country, but reside on a lake near Walker most of the year.
-
welcome laker!
I live north of grand rapids and I make it to walker, well, not as often as I used to, but I still go there a few times a winter.
I will be going there tuesday to pick up my son so I will be looking for a spot to snag some walleyes on walker bay. maybe I can get out from shingobee island.
I look forward to some fresh reports from time to time.
dont forget to send us some pictures too! we love pictures :)
-
Thought I'd say Hi.Â
I'm Kory. I live in the southwest metro. Grew up here, went to college in Winona, then joined the Army. After 7 years in the Army, I moved back to this area, with my wife and son. My 4 year old son is my fishing buddy, we have a small, but nice boat, that lets us catch all the pan fish we need. I muzzleloader hunt for deer, and rifle hunt whenever possible.Â
I'm a gun fanatic, but that's not a bad thing! ;)
ETA: Forgot to mention, I also enjoy Pheasant hunting and Squirel hunting every chance I get. And just last year started ice fishing (I'll stick with it, but I'm still a total newbie).
-
Welcome to the MNO Kory! We are glad to have you. I lived in Winona until 1998 (finished college). I have a couple of young Fishing/hunting buddies myself. We have had a lot of new members lately. How did you find the site?
-
Hello all - Steve (26) & live in Shakopee with my wife, Kelly. She is in training, but it is going well. We are going ice fishing on Leech for our 1 year anniversary!
I pheasant hunt every weekend of the season with my German Shorthair (Duke) & deer camp up around Mille Lacs is my favorite time of year. I also love to turkey hunt and go duck hunting a couple times per year. Love to shoot HP rifles. My old man used to fish some pro walleye tournaments and I got the outdoors itch from him.
Love the site.

Welcome to MNO Steve and Kory

-
I lived in Winona until 1998 (finished college).
Â
Cool, I graduated from WSU in 1997.
I have a couple of young Fishing/hunting buddies myself.
They're great to take fishing. It's cool to see my son get all excited wether it's a tiny perch, or a big sunfish. He just likes fishing with his dad, and that warms my heart. He made me promise to take him ice fishing this year.
-
now that is a promise that I'm sure will not be hard to keep ;)
-
I am 24 and new to MN and this site. I love to hunt deer and pheasant in Iowa but have recently moved to the Rochester area and am looking forward to doing some hunting here in MN. I have always loved fishing up here and go annually with my dad and brother up by Otter tail. I got married just this summer and will be moving into our new home in a few weeks and then will be getting a new hunting buddy, will be looking for a yellow lab!
Great to be here!!

I am 44 yrs old and just joined the site today. Nice chat forum!
I fish a bit, but spend more time in the summer competing in barefoot waterskiing tournaments around the country. I'm sure you avid fishermen love guys like that!
My biggest passion in life is bow hunting whitetail deer. I partake in that as often as possible, which is never often enough!
I live in Scandia MN and work in downtown Minneapolis for a government defense contractor.

Welcome sunk1 !!
and then these guys come right at you by calling you a skunk :laugh:
I see you only have one post. well how about making one more and putting it in the contest so you can win that Pattrick Gibbs print. signed, framed and ready to hang on your wall!!
it was our goal when we started to be the most friendly website around.
we dont have the most information (yet), but we have the best bunch of guys and gals on the web and that is what people like. that is why they come to us again and again.
bow hunting eh?
we have a few on here doing that as well.
I myself got a hell of a deal from one of my IBOT brothers on a new reflex(new to me) bow this fall. damn that thing shoots nice.
I didnt get to spend as much time in the woods as I wanted, but I got out. the closest I came to hooking up was an eight pointer at about fifty five yards.
nice broad side shot. to bad it wasnt 25 yards closer.
well dont just sit here reading this, get your but into the contest post and get your name in the hat!
-
Dr Bob is right it's all about having fun. :-[
Thanks anyway Doc. One of my nicknames is EEL-LEE even if Dr Bob spells it ELL-LEE.
So many new members I can't keep count anymore, but welcome to all of you.
Welcome to the neighborhood.

Sorry for the freudian slip there smartassedguide. I must of been thinkging of a sow I used to own named Elly. :laugh:
-
Hey Dr. Bob, Did you notice who just posted. It's BDub our fearless leader and President of the CWCS ( Conservationists With Common Sense ). Welcome Nancy you’re a great friend to all of us at MNO.
For those of you that don't know Bdub just check out her site and see how the CWCS is working for all of us. http://cwcs.org/
-
I saw that. Nice to see Nancy here too. Good deal!
-
Hi, I'm Nancy. Just finished reading through all the intros. Looks like a great bunch of guys and gals on this website that SMG pointed me to.
I am president of Conservationists with Common Sense - CWCS, and I try to keep people informed about public land and water issues, especially the Boundary Waters. Currently we are involved in a lawsuit, having joined the Forest Service in the South Fowl Snowmobile Trail lawsuit. Izaak Walton, Sierra 'Sue' Club, and others filed the suit to stop a trail because it is toooo close to the Boundary Waters. I'll post more on that later.
A bit about me... I'm 29w years old. (figure it out) and have been married to the same great guy, Doug, for 34+ years. eh, that can't be right! I'm only 29w!!!
We live in God's Country... Ely, MN on Fall Lake. We have 2 daughters... Megan, almost 29a, married, lives in Maple Grove; and Bridget, 26, single, lives in Hibbing. We all enjoy fishing and exploring the Boundary Waters for all those places where 'no man has never been before'. yea, right.
We usually go the push and shove route through Newton to Basswood. Getting harder to do with my bad knees. May have to hitch a ride with Lee this spring.
This year's ice fishing didn't start out very well. Lost my cell phone down the fish hole. Dang fish won't pick up!
Other than the Boundary Waters, the other passion of ours is snowmobiling. Haven't had a great start with that one either this year. Not much snow, but we're supposed to get some this weekend.
I'll try to check in from time to time, but if we get snow... I'm gone.
-
This year's ice fishing didn't start out very well. Lost my cell phone down the fish hole. Dang fish won't pick up!
I think we have all did this at least once, about 10 years ago, I lost my phone in the St. Croix River, it fell out of my pocket and went right down the hole.
About 2 weeks later, my dad was using my NEW cell phone and walked to the portable restroom, he came out a couple minutes later and was laughing, I said "what happened" he said he was laughing at me and how I lost my phone a couple weeks earlier in the River, then he said I just dropped your new phone in the toilet.

we tried a few different names when we started this site. the mnoutdoorsman name was chosen and then we realized the MNO minnow coincidence.

I live in Owatonna, MN, I am 38 years old, have been married for 11 years now, and have a 6 year old son who is my life's joy.
I am a courier with FedEx Express based at the Rochester airport, and my route area is Owatonna and Medford (home of Cabela's)
I have enjoyed whitetail deer hunting with my father and a couple of good friends in Southern MN for the past 17 years or so. My best hunt so far netted me a very nice and symmetrical 8 pointer that i shot at about 90 yards with my Remington 870 Express.
I hope to make it up to the URL area next season to hunt with my good buddy Outdoors_junkie and his clan. I also hope to get out turkey and pheasant hunting this next season.
And...I am an AVID NASCAR fan. Go Denny Hamlin !

you lost me at AVID NASCAR FAN... ;)

hi to all i joined the website about a week ago and am loving it. It's a great place for me to go and relax. I'm 22 years old i currently live in Arizona due to a job change, hoping to find a new job in Minnesota so i can enjoy all of the outdoor perks. I love to do any type of hunting or fishing. I just recently got engaged so another great thing to look forward to. Oh by the way thanks spinach for the great phone. Can't wait to get to meet knew people.
Chris

Welcome to MNO Ice_Bandit. Glad to have ya.

Congrats on the recent engagement also.

Welcome to MNO ice_bandit

Chuck..AKA Bufflehead
-
Welcome Ice bandit. Is the gal from Az?
She may not like the weather difference between here and AZ.
Subtle differences, yet its still a change to what she is used to.
What do you do? Maybe the collective group here can help you find something up here.
Good luck.
-
Welcome Bandit,
What type of work does your bride to be do? I was thinkin about maybe she was in law enforcement? If she is, get her to register on this site and you guys could post as........ Smokey and The Ice_Bandit. ::)
Hey, that's the best I could come up with before breakfast :-[

Thanks for welcoming me everyone. I am a machine operator for making concrete paver's/block. My fiance actually lives in Minnesota. My fiance is in the sales and marketing career Field, but that would have been an awesome screen name. if anyone knows of a good job in Minnesota let me know.

My name is Mike Gillespie, I live in Osakis, MN. I work in Brandon,MN for an outfit called VoyageR Supply & Fabrication. We make GEM car frames, Voyager Dock, TitanDeck and a lot of Clam fish house parts. I am the mechanical designer. I also fish WALLEYES all around this area and Lac Suel (when I can afford it). Used to work with Woody, still fish and drink with him. No kids, married to the best woman for me for 32 years (guess that makes me an "old fart" ) I'm 57 for a few more monthes. Let me tell you why I say best woman for me- For our 25th anniversary I said" Pick a place you want to go" as she has talked about criuses in the past I figured I was going to Mexico. After about a week she says " I know where we are going and I made the reservations" My reply - " Which side of Mexico? Her answer --- "I've booked us for a week of walleye fishing at Lac Suel at an all included fishing lodge" Thought I was gonna 'mess' myself!! Think I'll keep her ( if she lets me stay around) Anything else you're curious about - just ask.
-
Welcome to MNO Steelman! Glad to see you made it here! I think you'll find MNO to be very informative as well as the great commaraderie we have here! One thing-for you to say you fish Walleyes?!! You are a WALLEYE HUNTING MACHINE!!! ;D It's all those pest fish that mistake a walleye hook for their own! And I have to agree-you have the best wife! Yep-even better than my own-at least until mine sends us on a week long fishing trip! (Oh how I hope my mrs. doesn't see this!) :o Then I'd have to change my name to DEADWOOD! ;D
-
welcome steelman!
didnt know that brandon had any big
business there. kind of grew up there
at my grandmas place on big chip.
havent been up there in years.

Howdy everyone. My name is Jonathan and my wife and just moved to Wesley, IA last year. We both just graduated from College last may. I love the outdoors and am just getting used to life out of school. We both love the outdoors. We both love to hunt and fish and unfortunately for me she is a much better fishman than I am. I usually just end up paddling her around the lake. Thanks everyone

-
muskymainiac, WELCOME!
this is a good site. spend a little time here and judge for your self.
we do not play the games you find other places.
we built this site for you, the outdoorsman.
we are just like yourself.
we have homes and kids, and outdoor passions just like you and everybody else here.
together we make this a better website for all of us ;)
I live in Itasca county and I am right in the middle of two wonderful muskie lakes, deer and moose.
I have only managed a couple, but I did have one dandy 50+ incher on two years ago before it just decided it had had enough and snapped my four pound test ;D
make yourself at home.
if you need anything, feel free to contact any of the staff members here using the pm feature.
enjoy your stay!

I am Alan and am a serious Waterfowler. Buzz who is 18 Mo now is my hunting buddy. From Hunting in the Fall to spring Snows to helping the ducks with numerous nests and boxes, I basically am a waterfowl addict ;D Some may recognize my handle from other waterfowl oriented hunting sites, as have been on some of them for 6 years now.Â
Anyway, it ie really weird being on a site where waterfowl hunting is not the primary focus :laugh: Fishing in my mind is what you do when there is nothing waterfowl related that you can do ;D
-
Alan!! Welocome to MNO my old friend...Great to have you on board
Chuck here, Vickie is also on this site
-
Ok Buffle--you got me, so how do I know you? Your log in is not ringing a bell. Oh and Vickie gets the Brwonie point as she told be about this site. ;D
-
welcome h2ofwlr, i know you from the refuge... i am leadnet there. (well, i don't know you, but I've seen you there) we don't intend to primarily focus on fishing here, more about a little bit of everything. you'll notice as the seasons change, so do the topics of interest.
welcome!

My name is Nick. I heard about this site from my hunting buddy, guythathunts. I'll try hunting just about anything that I can, and I love a good day of fishing. I just got a golden retriever and named him Rio; I'm hoping that we can find some good roosters this fall and he can learn some stuff from Duke (guythathunts dog).

Hi-I am 51, a single female and just now joined this forum. Looks like a lot of fun. I own a little hobbyfarm south of the cities, and love to fish, altho I have a hard time finding someone to go with. Love the outdoors and my two grandchildren. Besides fishing, I love to garden, and have a little woodshop I like to "tink around" in.

Any new members that would like to introduce themselves to the group? Tell us a little bit about yourselves and what you enjoy about the outdoors.

(I just copied and pasted this in here from my post in MNO's Outdoors Women/Special Interests Group forum.)
I'm 39 years old; married 19 years to the love of my life; 4 kids; live on 80 acres of "heaven" in SE MN. Youngest of 13 kids; husband is youngest of 7. My Dad took me coon hunting, deer hunting, squirrel & rabbit hunting, etc. with other family members on our farm. Husband and I have hunted together since dating many years ago - he introduced me to pheasant, grouse, and duck hunting, turkey hunting; and now coyote hunting. Hubby and I hunted pheasants in Nebraska a few years ago; and coyote hunting in S. Dakota. Would like to get out west for an elk hunt in the next couple years. But we still enjoy the great state of MN the best! Our kids age 15, 13, 11, and 7 (2 boys, 2 girls) are all hunters now as well. We all get out there together as much as we can. 2 older kids start turkey hunting this Saturday; hope they're successful! My husband and I start our season May 3rd. We are all just "crazy 4 outdoors"!! Love to do anything outside - ride 4 wheelers, go for walks, cut wood, hunting, shed hunting, mushroom hunting, bonfires, etc. We do a "little" fishing but not much. We have an old farmhouse that we're slowly trying to remodel, but as with all things, it takes a lot of time and a lot of money; so we get to it when we can. My husband has always been very supportive of me and the kids in our outdoor adventures; it sure helps that we're on the "same page". We always have a good time together, whether we're successful or not; it's just great being out in the woods.
I've already been enjoying these forums; keep up the great work MNO!

::welcome:: to MNO Crazy4Outdoors! Sounds like your family has their priorities together...it's always good for the family when you can spend time doing things outdoors together! Thanks for sharing your story. It's nice to have you here on MNOutdoorsman.com with us. I hope you enjoy being a part of the family!

Greetings,
I was invited here by wunna my pals at the Buckslayers shack... a fraternal order of hunting and fishing junkies who escaped from the now defunct DNR forums some years ago. You might say... I'm da token female there. ha. So, I thought I would drop by here and check it out. Never been here before. Looks interesting.
I live and work in the east Metro for now... I sold my main business and hope to get outta Dodge this year... maybe to the MilleLacs area where I have land and a cabin. I am turning 55 in three weeks, am divorced after 23 years married, have two great kids, daughter 21 and married son who will be 24 mid-May. Besides being a hunting addict (archery mainly, deer, bear, turkey, wild hogs, etc), I just bought a small putt putt boat and wanna get into fishing. I do some writing too.
So. Now I'm gone for a week to hunt turkeys in Georgia with a gal pal. I will check back here when I return.

Hi All,
Just found this site 5 minutes ago and signed up.
I am 37 and have been married for....what day is it??? ::cheers::
2 and a half months. Patience finally paid off and I met the right woman just over 3 years ago....first marraige for both of us and neither of us have any kids.
We live west of the twin cities out in Norwood, Mn.
We both really love fishing....she even did before I met her...that was our second date. ::rockon:: Panfishing on lake Marion.
I got her into waterfowling 2 years ago and she absolutely loves that as well. We usually venture to ND for a trip in the fall and we have a private field close to home where we can shoot a honker now and then.

randy aka bh aka bonehead

Well, I guess I'm Mrs. Buckshot, or Walleye Brat, either one will do, and for those of you who like to shorten the nicks (JackpineRob), most people just call me Brat.
Anyway, as I said on the Outdoor Women's forum, I am 35 and I just married my favorite fishing and hunting partner this past February. I have always loved to fish, and grew up doing it as much as humanly possible, so when I met my now husband three years ago, who also loves to fish (and hunt to boot), I knew I had found the one for me. He first converted me from panfish and occassionally bass to Walleye. It didn't take much - one or two on the end of a lindy rig, and I was signed up for life. Then two years ago he bought me a shotgun, and very patiently taught me how to hunt duck and geese both over water and in the field. I shoot a Beretta AL390 20 Gauge, so geese aren't as easy to bring down on my own, but this year I shot my first solo goose field hunting. It was just shy of 14 pounds, and it was so incredibly cool!! I'm completely hooked. My only complaint is that there aren't enough weekends in the fall for duck, geese and jiggin' for Walleye!!
Anyway - I'm excited to see a site like this (especially with the Women's forum). I hope to learn a lot, hear and share stories, and meet some new friends!!

Hey yawl....
I'm Jon, Randy aka Bonehead asked me to join in over here. I'm 52 years old and feel older. I'm a Critical Care Respiratory Therapist at Children's Hospital in Mpls for my grown up job and enjoy hunting, fishing, BBQing, gardening, pool, drinkng beer and brandy and an occasional cigar when I ain't grown up. I have 3 daughters, Adria, Malea, and Alyssa, 1 grandaughter Ave Rose, and 1 grandson Jack who is up in Heaven finding all the good hunting and fishing spots for me.
After Deer hunting every year we make large amounts of sausage to split between the 3-4 of us that pitch in meat and time to get it all together, usually 4-6 hundred pounds. Randy wanted me over here to help with sausage making and such thinking I'm good at it or something. Well, we do good with what we do but an expert by no means but would be willing to help anyone out. Looking forward to talking crap with all of you.

Hi you two, welcome! I have a cabin and land up by Mora and I know what you mean by small town living. I spend 3-4 days a week up there but worked down here. I joined the Kanebec Chamber of Commerce at one point thinking I might move to Mora three years ago, but think I will aim for Isle instead. And ya, like you, I will commute and I already know it will be worth it !

HI my name is scott (holdemtwice ) i moved here a little over two years ago . i lived in the chicago erea for over 36 years . i had several businesses in illinois that i sold and closed to come and live here. i was looking for a simple life and i think i found it .
My wife grew up in EDEN PRAIRIE and most of her family is around the metro and in the st. cloud erea. So formeit was a no brainer. I loveto hunt and fish. i have only been on the ice twice in my life. I look forward to hard water fishing this season.
Well luck would have it , back in sept . i was offered the family business (wholesale bait) and a purchased it. my wifes uncle began this company over 23 years ago or so . (i have been told between 23 and 25 years ago ) So our family has a lot of experience in dealing with bait and how to maintain it.
I also opened a construction company aroundthe same time as i purchased the bait bus. i only take on small jobs fori do not have the subs in this state that i had in illinois . i also opened a snow removal company this past year.
I have three boys ages 19 , 6 , and 5 . i am married to my beautiful wife for 13 years this sept!!!
i look forward to helping others and enjoying the great outdoors.

I love to be outdoors whether it's fishing, hiking, backpacking, or whatever but haven't really found anyone here to do outdoors stuff with. I would really love to get out fishing again.

Hello Everyone,
My name is Dale Borgstrom, 53 years young, singse, with a signigicant other. I live about 6 miles south of Pillager, Minnesota.
I fish year around, mostly panfish. I try to make 3-4 trips to Devils Lake each year. The
Walleye, and Northern fishing is great up there.
My hunting is mostly Deer. I hunt all three seasons. I enjoy the solitude of Bow hunting the most. None of the noise that there is with Rifle, or Muzzle Loader. You can see so much more then.
I enjoy your site. LuvinLife told me about me about it.

Hey everyone my name is Chad, 25 yrs old. I live in Apple Valley from WI. I love bowhunting, muskie fishing, and the great outdoors. I do most of my hunting and fishing in WI just because it's the only place where I have some private land to hunt plus they have some of the best muskie fishing lakes down the road in a little old place called Hayward. I'm a project superintendent of a residential homebuilder during the week and an outdoor enthusiast on the weekend. I joined MNO because I love the outdoors and it fullfills my hunting and fishing addiction during the week until I can get up North on the weekends.

looking for a wealthy female between 21 and 35 years old to take care of me
Aren't we all Spinach. I am a 36 year old divorced guy from Eagan. I have a 13 year old daughter that loves to hunt and fish as much as me. Can't ask for much more. I get out fishing about 2-3 times a week until bowhunting starts and then fishing slows to once a week and hunting 2-3 times a week.
-
Hey SkitterPopper,
Welcome to MNO! You will fit right in here.
-
Welcome to the MNO family SkitterPopper!! I wish I had the time to fish 2-3 times per week... I have yet to bowhunt, but I do get out for firearms deer camp every year. Heading up to URL for the first time this year with some friends. Glad to have you here as part of the MNO family! ;)
-
Hi all. Nice site!
I first duck hunted in '65 with some buddy's from White Bear, and fell in love with it. As with every other year, I'm getting antsy about now, and can't wait for the season to start. I lease a duck shack between Alex and Fergus and spend the major part of the season there til ice up.
I've spent most of the summer up on the north shore of Superior, but will head back home to the cities the last week of the month and get the gear ready for opening.
Hopefully, there's a thread on here somewhere that duck hunters do field reports or such. See ya all later..

I am 47, live in northern Indiana, and love to hunt geese. Hopefully, I can learn some helpful hints from you fine folks.
I use a Remington SP-10 semiauto for geese, I try not to shoot ducks as that 10 ga. is somewhat overkill. We use FA brand laydown blinds, and mainly Real Geese silhouettes along with Clinton Big Foot fullbody decoys. We prefer to hunt in grain fields, however, shallow water is not a problem.
Good luck all during this upcoming waterfowl season

A co-worker told me about this site, so I figured I'd register to be able to see all the "good" stuff!
I grew up in rural NMN (and I do mean rural) for the first 25 years of my life, so I was immersed from the start in the outdoors and all it offers - its traditions, heritage, comraderie, lifestyle, etc. I love hunting - especially birds, thus my name, fishing, camping, target shooting/plinking, 4-wheeling (I am a certified "jeepaholic" and MV nut), well ... just about any outdoor activity, really.
Now as a "suburban city-slicker" with a family and grown-up commitments, I don't get out hunting/fishing/shooting as much as I used to - or would like to, but am trying to instill the same values and respect for/knowledge of the outdoors in my kids that I learned growing up.
-
Uplander, welcome to MNO! ::welcome:: I think it is great that you are instilling those same values in your children. I have for kids of my own. I don't get out as much as I used to or want to. It won't be long and I will have the kids asking mom to let us go out hunting/fishing more.
I am glad you could join us here at MNO. Hopefully you'll enjoy this site as much as the rest of us.

Hello All,
My name is Greg Amsler. My passion is fishing!!! I invented a fishing lure 5 yrs ago that has changed my life. I fish Lake Vermillion. The big man above has blessed us with 8 acres on the lake...Oh yeah I am married... 17 yrs to this worlds most understanding woman. Sorry honey!!! Fishing truly does feed my soul. I believe in catch and release... Our grandchildren are depending on it! I have fished Northern Minnesota all of my life. I am originally from Cloquet Mn. I have lived in Stacy Mn for the last 17 yrs. I am currently looking for a couple individuals to do some October fishing on Vermillion. We will be using my lures... unless someone can come up with something that will out fish them. I do have a few beers but don't like people that drink too many! You gotta know when enough is enough!!! I think Minnesota is the most beautiful place to live. We do have a true 4 seasons and our state has a tremendous amount to offer.Fall is my favorite time of year. The fishing is awesome and the cool crisp mornings really get your blood flowing. I like the site and I think as it grows there will be some fantastic information.My strategy this fall is the same as always.... Go deep young man... 45 to 50 feet.Good Fishing to all !!! Take a picture and let um go !!!

I'm new to MN outdoors. I'm a married, 47 year old father of 2, grandfather of 6, am a partner in a small business with 20 employees. I work hard all week, head north almost every Friday at noon. I started hunting in my early thirties (raised a city boy), and have grown to love the great outdoors. I am an avid bowhunter, muzzle loader hunter, and upland game birds. I have a cabin on a small lake in the Brainerd/Gull lake area, and a small hunting lease near Leader, MN. I like the forums I have read and am glad to be a member.

Well Hello! :rock:
I have lurked on this site for far too long! I usually am pretty quiet on the forums and just read but I think I found a home here at MNO. I just want to say what you all are doing here is something great and I want to come along for the ride. I enjoy reading a here alot. I think the worst thing about this site is that it os headed for success. That means two things. On one hand it means you have acomplished a lot and done the right things but on the other hand someday it will be so big that you will get lost so easily! I know there is at least one site in Mn that is like that and as much as I love all the info I find myself getting lost and not being able ot keep on top of things. Anyways, glad to be here and I will try to do some posting but I am usually pretty busy and if I am not at work I am farming and deer hunting happy2.gif

Hi Everyone,
I am Harmony. I am a mother of 4, on the committe of the NWTF, HUGE into the outdoors, (now) lol I was a girly girl, and to be totally honest, I still am!
Last year, I sat in a deer stand, got my first deer, this year, I started Duck hunting, as many know (hehe) and next weekend I will get my first Pheasant. I am going to be joining a trap leauge.
I am a bee keeper, so I have fresh local honey that all the people from CM LOVE. Its called Harmonys Honey and my boyfriend and I have 5 hives. I will be starting a company getting bee suplies to others.
I dont know what else I can say other than I am VERY glad I found this site.
Have a wonderful day!! ;D ;)

Hi there! First post of what will hopefully be many more. My wife and I have a small farm operation and raise sheep in SC MN near Bugtussle.

Hi MNO readers! I'm 28 and live in the Northfield area. I recently became a dad to beautiful little baby girl, and I'm married to a lovely lady who is soon to become a chiropractor. That works in my favor since by day I'm a carpenter, and my back needs lots of fixing :) My wife bought me my first gun for my birthday this year and I've enjoyed every time I've had a chance to be in the great outdoors with it! Thanks for the website guys!
-
Welcome. Glad you're here. So what kind of gun did you get?
Oh and congrats on the baby.

Thanks guys. Yeah I got a small 6 point with inside spread only 8" or so. But I got a buck in my head Im happy as it is only my second deer since Ive been hunting only 8 season or so and have had to change public land a few times to find my spot that wasnt an issue with other BIg hunting parties out there running the woods.LOL
We hunt the St. Croix forest now for the past 3 yrs. and the last 2 have been great in my location of my stand. But last year the biggest blunder ever ,,, I had a doe in 15 yrs or so broadside and sniffing the ground and got my glass right in her perfect and click ,,, my safety was on , she looked at me and me her and she boogalood right on out.. I was about to puke as I had her.. I still feel the pain!! LOL..
Cooking I cook about anything and like to use cast iron . I love mexican and cuban food to cook..
I notice some other guys from anglerinsider here too. Great to see others on anohter good site..
Does anyone know where to go near the cities for slugs ? not sure if slugs in over around here yet as I tried finding the info without success.
-

I do like the fact that there are men and woman here.. Its refreshing to see the gals come out and get into the outdoors like us hairy hunters!! LOL
-
I am 28 years old live in Monticello, Mn. I have been married for 3 years and have a baby on the way. I spend most of my weekends sitting in a tree in Waumandee WI (Buffalo County) bow hunting, come to think of it I have only missed two this year and one was for duck opener and one was to go pheasant hunting. I leave for Missouri in a week to go duck hunting, a thanksgiving tradition my cousin and I have been doing now for 11 years. There is nothing better than Cambells Chucky soup in a duck blind for Thanksgiving dinner. When I return it will be right back into the woods looking for the big one.

welcome to MNO btoa! hope you enjoy your

Hi
I am 50 years old. I have 5 kids, 3 who summer and winter camp,hunt and fish. As I write this my wife is slug hunting deer, I have committed to bow hunting, mostly on public land this year,first time out in 8 years. We all hunt and fish all four seasons. Will be predator hunting the first time this year. Our 8 year old has been sitting in the stand with me sort of if you know what I mean. Have made all the usual flubs bow hunting so will be hunting hard here on out. Look forward to joining in when I can.

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to take a second to introduce my self. I just stumbled across this site and it looks like a fun place with a great deal of information.
I have one son that is almost 4 who loves to hunt and fish with dad, and my wife and I are expecting a new edition to the family after the first of the year.
I enjoy almost anything outdoors but my passions are turkey hunting and ice fishing. Not that I don't enjoy a day or twenty (well maybe more) in the deer woods with my bow, gun, and or smokepole. I just hate waterfowl and pheasant hunting too! ;)
I am self employed as a taxidermist and would like to invite all of you to take a look at my website. Just click on the globe below the avatar. If you have any questions about taxidermy I will be glad to help. I also instruct taxidermy in a one on one format for anyone who wants to learn.

Hello,
My name is Dan and I am 34 years old and live in Savage. I am married to my wife Shauna and we have one son (Liam) who is 14 months. I am new to the who forum thing so it may take me a little time to catch on, unlike fishing and hunting.
I enjoy fishing, hunting, ATV'n, snowmobilling and anything else outdoors. I spend a lot of time ice fishing on Prior Lake and other small lakes south of the river. I also fish Mille Lacs and other lakes around the Garrison area. I also deer hunt in the Garrison area. I try to make it up to Lake of the Woods ice fishing once a year and up to Orr Grouse hunting once a year. I also like to chase the ditch chickens in southern Minnesota and duck/Goose hunting near Dassel.

Alright, I'll play along here...
I'm a 29 year old Minnesota gal living in the sticks about an hour north of Duluth. I travel a lot, and don't plan to stop anytime soon. I hunt and fish, although have had a pretty miserable year so far. No kids here, unless you count dogs. Got three of those trailin' me around. I'm a wildlife biologist hoping to go back to school someday soon. I'm planning on consulting all you fellas (and ladies!) and your incredible collective knowledge to explain to me why the only deer I've gutted weren't arrowed by yours truly and the only fish I've filleted lately were given to me in a bucket. Sigh......
REALLY need to work less I guess...anyway, nice to meet ya!

What town do you live in? I grew up in the sticks an hour north of Duluth.

24 male just moved to Rochester,mn from TN about 4 months ago. joined to get some information on hunting in southern mn and read up on some dog training as I am looking to train my first hunting dog next spring. really hope to get involved in hunting here in MN as much as I was in TN as that was my life while I was a student in Cleveland, TN.

here goes, just joined. I have been a part of other chat forums and glad for a switch. I'm 32 and live in Fargo, i grew up in Bigfork Mn and tried to either fish or hunt 365 days a year. I spent the last year living in Parker Co. for work and loved the outdoors there, but nothing beats northern mn. Glad to be back in the general area, looking forward to a great ice fishing season, so far so good :) If anyone is looking for some spots around Bemidji i'd gladly swap you for some spots in the DL/Fargo area. I spent 5 years in Fargo for :drinking:college so i know a lot of the well known spots but i tend to like to find the undiscovered hot spot. If anyone is looking for a fishing partner for a day let em know, i work from home and i am always looking for a reason to hit the ice.

Hi my name is Sheila. My husband and I purchased Barnacles Resort (on Mille Lacs) 2 years ago. We have 2 sons and a daughter who help run the business. My husband quit 3M (after 34 years) to pursue his dream of having a resort on Mille Lacs. He loves nothing better than fishing and the outdoors. I still work at 3M as a chemist and live in White Bear. I commute up north on the weekends to help out but more often than not to just have a good time. There's nothing like getting out of the city on the weekends!

Welcome to you and family Sheila. You will have the oppertunity to meet a lot of good people here that will wish you the best of fortune in the new resort busness.

Welcome to all our new members. I noticed about 3 in a row that i have something in common with besides hunting and fishing.
Johnturner9 - I used to live in Nashville, TN for a short time (grew up in KY.)
MnMike - I hunt up in Marcell which is just south of Big Fork. Ive gone up to the IGA for deer processing.
And Barnacles Resort, we're neighbors as I also live in White Bear. I admire you're husband for pursuing his dream job like that. Hopefully one day I'll also have that in common.
Welcome and thanks for joining.

Alright, I'll play along here...
I'm a 29 year old Minnesota gal living in the sticks about an hour north of Duluth. I travel a lot, and don't plan to stop anytime soon. I hunt and fish, although have had a pretty miserable year so far. No kids here, unless you count dogs. Got three of those trailin' me around. I'm a wildlife biologist hoping to go back to school someday soon. I'm planning on consulting all you fellas (and ladies!) and your incredible collective knowledge to explain to me why the only deer I've gutted weren't arrowed by yours truly and the only fish I've filleted lately were given to me in a bucket. Sigh......
REALLY need to work less I guess...anyway, nice to meet ya!

Welcome to MNO from wildlifeminnesota.

Hello,
I got a message to let you all know a little about me, well, here ya go.
I'm 45 years old, been married for 22 years, we have 3 kids, to girls and one boy.
Oldest daughter is 16, she loves to hunt and fish, for her first hunt of her life, this past spring she got a turkey(double beard, 23lbs), then she got a doe early season, and then a 8 point buck (187 dressed, 130 score) for the regular season.
The middle daughter is 14, she wants to be a veternarian, she doen't hunt, she just wants to fix up the animals we harvest. She does like to fish and play fetch with the dog.
The youngest is my boy, he's 10, he likes to tip up fish for pike and he loves goose hunting, he can't wait to be old enough to deer hunt!
The wife, she likes to fish, when she has time.
Me, I fish when I can, and hunt as much as I can!
I bow hunt more than anything.
When it's time to hunt, lately, I've been spending more time working with kids showing them how to hunt safley and ethically.
Thats about it, hope I didn't bore ya!
-
welcome hunterdown...
nice to see you spending time teaching your kids the right way to hunt.
-
Every time I read this post, Im playing catch up and there are 5 or 6 new members. Its funny how we all have so much in common. I've been with my wife for 20 years like wildlifemn and also love archery and getting kids into the same sport like hunterdown.
Hey, hunterdown, that gal of yours is spoiled getting such a good start hunting. Good for her.
Well a big warm welcome to all new members. I hope you all enjoy the site as much as I don

Happy New Year! I'm Dave, that's me on the left in the photo. I'm part of the Halverson crew which includes Camilla, Glenda & Norbert. Been an avid fisherman all my life & have been a guide in this area for several years. Our camp, Halverson's, is located in beautiful Northwestern Ontario, Canada on Kakagi (Crow) Lake. We are on a trout lake & the season opens today. Hope to let you know tommorrow how the fishing is. We have been ice fishing Lake of the Woods (just a short snowmobile or truck ride across the road from camp with our own private launch)for a few weeks now for crappie & walleye but everyone waits with anticipation for the trout opener. Our camp is holding it's second annual Trout Tournament, stay at our camp, catch the biggest trout on Crow Lake from January 1st to March 31st & win $500, could pay for your trip.
That's us in a nutshell.

Hi ! My name is John , AKA Finlander. I'm 47 and have been married for 27 years . We have 2 daughters , 26 and 21, both married . We have lived in Cambridge for 11 years and have been building our next home up between Silver Bay and Finland for 4 years now . Cannot get to much done on just weekends . Not sure as to when that move will be , hopefully sooner than later. I go as much as 2-3 times a month, so I'm basically only in Cambridge to go to work . I'm a Maintenance Tech/Mechanic for RAO Mfg. in Fridley and have been with them for over 14 years . Winter is my favorite time of year with fall pulling a close second . I hunt deer , ducks , geese pheasants and grouse . I fish any time of year but ice fishing is my favorite . I'm not as hardcore as I used to be but still get out as often as I can . Looking forward to the winter trout opener up in the woods in the next couple weeks .

This site has to be the best! Hi, I am Vicky (rushpointstore), and rushpointstore2 is Larry. We own Rush Point Store and Rush Point Realty up on West Rush Lake. We have had the store almost 12 years now, and cater to the hunter/fisher/sportsman for the area. We have heard our tackle prices rival some of those big chains out there (we won't mention names!), our orders come in weekly. Bait is from our local wholesaler, always fresh and lively! If we don't have what you want, ask. We special order liquors and jigs for our regular customers, from English specialty gins, to handpainted decoys. If you want to move to the area, I have had the most sales on area lakes for several years running now. I am proud to have earned the trust of our local sellers and buyers.
We work incredibly long hours, something I bet many of you self employed can understand. With three teenagers from college to middle school, time is speeding by with not enough leisure time to enjoy the lake we live on. Hoping to change that to a priority soon, just ate the last fillet in the freezer last night! In the summer, you will see us out on " the Big Mac", our ancient houseboat..probably in Little Lake, with kids diving off the roof..pull up and enjoy a libation!

Well thanks for the intro and we're glad you love this site as much as we do.

I'm Sandi from Cedar Creek Outfitters in Pine City and have just started reporting on the fishing in our area. I am 58 and have been married for 38 years and have three grown children and four grandchildren. My husband and I go to Wyoming every fall to hunt - he hunts Muleys and I hunt Antelope - we hunt white tail here in Minnesota and fish summer and winter. We have a farm south of Pine City and raise beef cattle. We have too many dogs and too many horses. My husband is retired and I work at Cedar Creek as the bookkeeper. It's a great place to work - the customers are always happy because when they come in they are shopping or browsing for their favorite pass time - hunting :fudd: or fishing. :fishing:

thanks for the reports! and belated welcome to MNO!

Hello all,
My name is Lonnie. I am 35 years old live in Eden Prairie. I have 1 wife and 3 kids. Although my wife is not an outdoorswoman, she supports my interests which are mainly fishing, pheasant hunting and turkey hunting (when I make the lottery). My fishing passion is Walleye. I think they are awesome creatures, and fun to catch. Unfortunately, they are tough to catch so any tips are welcome.
When I'm not fishing, hunting or spending time with my family I am working as a Police Officer, or spending my weekend serving in the MN Army National Guard.
Its great to be a member here and I am looking forward to chatting and sharing secrets and tips.

Hello all. I have viewed this site for about a year and thought it was time to join in. Great site with tons of great info and people. I am 33 years old and enjoy just about everything outdoors from hunting and fishing to camping and hiking. I am origanally from Grand Rapids and now reside in Cambridge. I look forward to sharing info and learning with the rest of you.
Take care,
-
Welcome snapjig! ::welcome:: We are glad you decided to join MNO! How do you like Cambridge? I grew up there, but it's change a lot since I moved away in the early 90's. My folks still live in Isanti.
What kind of outdoor activities do you enjoy (hunting or fishing maybe)?
Glad you are here! :happy1:
-
Thanks for the welcome OJ. I have lived in Cambridge for about 6 years and really like it. The fact that I'm centerally located and close to the cities for work and closer to Mille Lacs for fishing has been great. I have a cabin near Big Fork. I spend a lot of time there and that is only about 2hrs 45 Min. away. So Cambridge only made sense for me in the ever challanging balance between work and play. Eel Pout fest is my next adventure. Herd it's a blast.

My name is Dave, I'm 33 years old, live in Cottage Grove, have 2 kids, 13 and 11, and I am a bow hunting addict! I gave up rifle hunting about 13 years ago due to the unsafe practices of others, and I've never had any regrets. I am fortunate to have permission to hunt 85 acres in Buffalo County, WI which is crawling with Monster Bucks. The stars haven't aligned yet for me to take my Booner, but with the amount of time that I spend out there, it's going to happen. Glad to be here.

Hello all,
I'm the father of 3 boys. Oldest is 12 and big into hunting and fishing. The Youngest is 8 and is crazy about fishing and being in the woods. He especially enjoys ice fishing and hunting Morels. The middle one is 100% sports that don't involve animals crazy! I enjoy Ice fishing and Deer hunting the most. I enjoy processing my own game and teaching the process to my kids. I am involved in commercial and industrial construction. I do most of my fishing in the Mississippi back waters and on Lake Pepin.

Hi Everyone, damn glad to meet ya!
My name is Troy, I am 44 and 7/8ths. I have two great kids, Nicole is 13 and Michael is 11 and 9/10ths. I have been widowed since Michael wasn't quite a month old. Damn cancer.
Went through a bad time for awhile after that. Actually sold all my hunting and fishing gear, didn't do either for about 10 years. But am back to my old self and been at it again for last 2 yrs or so.
My son starts gun safety April 4th. He got drawn for the spring turkey hunt, and is extremly excited to go on his first hunt with a gun. By the way, I didn't get drawn! :banghead:
Michael was in the woods with me this past fall when I dropped two running does with 3 shots to fill out two tags. He was never so excited as he was to see that. He is hooked for life.
My daughter isn't in to the hunting scene yet, but we will change her. She has already expressed some interest, but all I need to do is get her into the woods with me.
Anyways, glad to be here! Looking foward to meeting some if not all the members.

Hi everybody,
I'm sure some of you know me from other boards but I see a lot of new names, so I'll give you the lowdown on just who I am.
My name is Terry Sjoberg but all my friends call me "Ace" a nick name that goes back a long ways. I'm 56 years old, I have 2 children and they have given me 5 grandkids, 3 of them boys.
I have been a professional angler for 22 years. I was a professional tounament angler for a number of years
but now I only fish a couple a year. I spend most of my time guiding now and I like that much more. I do about 120 trips a year, most for Muskies however I also guide for Walleyes, Pike and both species of bass.
I'm married to the most wonderful understanding women on earth, and have been for 33 years now. She let me quit my job and go fishing 23 years ago and she never complained when things were tough the first few years.
We live on the shores of Lake Vermilion with our two labs Coco and Moe. Our kids live in the cities where I grew up. I'm a graduate of Mpls Roosevelt high school and I have a history degree from the University of MN.
I caught my first Muskie at the age of 9 out of the Miss river below the Ford dam. I have been chasing them ever
since. I'm a life Member of the NAFC, vice president of the Arrowhead chapter of MI.
I'm also a member of the Minnesota Muskie guides association, and I'm very involved with the Minnesota Muskie alliance.
In other words, fishing is my life, and I wouldn't want it any other way. :fishing:
"Ace" :happy1:

I was introduced to MNO yesterday by my new neighbor and am trying to get into the program here.
Fishing is my vocation since retirement and have taken up fly fishing with a passion.
Included, of course, is fly-tying which was a God send when I quit smoking a few years ago.
So much to learn...So little time left. Have to get with it soonest.
Any fly guys or gals out there????
I've been blessed with a wife who loves fishing as much as I do and as a matter of fact, got me started in fly fishing. ( Holds the family size record, too )

One gal on here is a fly fishing nut! And she likes to tie flies also.

Well BH suggested I stop in here and introduce myself so, here goes nuttin…
My real name is Bob. I was born and raised on Da Range. After U.S. Steel decided in the early 80’s they didn’t want too many people working for them anymore, we relocated down to the Twin Cities.
I’m married (2nd) to a wonderful gal who loves to fish as much as I do. (Maybe even more) :bow:
I have 3 daughters from my first marriage; 1 in college and 2 out on their own.
As far as my screen name, Da Beak, well, lets just say, if you ever saw a profile picture of me, you’d understand it fully. :rotflmao:

Hey everyone, My name is Joe Cannella. I am from Grand Rapids where I work for the MN Deer Hunters Association as the development director. I have three kids ages 5-12 all of which are either shooting a bow or tagging along on my hunts. My wife gives me the green light to chase critters for fun more times then not. She enjoys fishing and camping, someday I think we will get her to try turkey hunting. I hunt primarily deer with trad archery gear but also rifle and muzzleloader hunt too. I fish mainly for fun with my family and enjoy ice fishing the most.
I am really impressed with this site. If anyone wants to pick brain regarding MDHA go for it.

I am currently working on my criminal justice degree and when I finish I am going to finish my nursing degree, so I have something to fall back on. I love both fields of work, so it'll be nice to have a variety of options available to me. My father introduced me to this site when he posted my sons pictures. He is the WildlifeMN guy. Since I enjoy the outdoors and like to fish I figured I'd give this site a try. So, thanks dad!

I fish a lot in the mississippi for smallies and fly fish for bass, crappies, and sunnies for open water. I mostly fish for panfish ice fishing. For hunting I really like goose and duck. I also deer hunt but I would rather go for ducks and geese.
-
Thats great, i know if you look around in the forums, under open water, there was a few questions about fishing the Mississippi there that maybe you can answer and help with..
We also have a forum under rod wrapping and flies, there a lot of great info there as well about tying flies and whats the best lines, rods and what works and what doesn't
Then visit the hunting forums for ducks and goose

Hello my name is Corey I live on lake of the woods. I live for my family, hunting and fishing I have 2 daughters 8 and 4 who spend as much or more time hunting than most adults I know. they both love fishing of course one would rather ice fish and one soft water but that makes it easier to go do both. by the way I am 35. My wife thinks hunting 50 - 60 days a year is too much but she seems to get over it. (gotta love her)
-
::welcome:: Black Dog To MNO So what do you like to hunt most of all?
-
I live in Rosemount in an old house that my wife and I bought 3 years ago so projects around here keep me pretty busy. When I do get out fishing it is mostly to the St. Croix. I started fishing the river when I moved here and it has been a learning experience every since. I also have a 3 year old boy and a 9 month old girl who keep me well occupied. I have been in the Army since 1998 and have been deployed to Kuwait and Iraq. I am currently working at Ft. Snelling for the Army Reserve.
Hello to everyone and watch that bobber.

I mostly go after walleye/sauger but catching smallmouth is a lot of fun too. What I love about the river is you never know what you are going to catch. We have had as many as 9 different species in the boat in one day before. That always make for an ineresting trip...catfish?walleye?sheephead?whitebass?smallmouth? you never know until you see it.

Hi folks. I'm an out of state visitor to the site and looks like you folks have a great place here to discuss all the good things that happen in the woods and wild of Minnesota.
I'm an avid outdoorsman and enjoy fishing, hunting, camping and pretty much anything outside but archery is my passion. I shoot competitive 3d and hunt with the bow here in my home state of Delaware as well as the bordering state of Maryland. I've been to many states and Canada to hunt with the bow and rifle.
I belong to another site where I've met a moderator from this site named Don McGruder. He has asked me to come check this one out so here I am.
If you all have any questions or comments about archery that you might need an opinion or comment on, feel free to ask away, I'm always glad to help.
Great being here and seeing what your site is all about.
-
Jon, Thanks for coming on board. Im sure everyone here will be able to benefit from your knowledge. You'll be most at home in the archery forum but Im sure you'll enjoy many others as well such as the photography forum.

HIya!
I live in SE Minn. & am an avid outdoorsman. If I am not working on a construction project as part of my business, I am usually outdoors, doing some fishing, hunting, camping, & the like. I am a member of many outdoors sites on the web , & this one seemed to be one I would enjoy visiting. I thank you for the chance to become a member, & I hope that my membership here will be a long & enjoyable! ;D

Nice to have MnSportsman. Is that the Duck Commander in your picture? ;D

I apologize General, In my attempt to keep my post brief, I didn't introduce some of my hunting & fishing partners. In the picture on the left, is my good friend Belle(RIP) who is posing with her 1st 2 pheasants at age 8 months. ( The one nearest the Rem 1100 is on my wall to this day.) The other fellows(GOBS) along with me in the next picture, taken after a sunny "bluebird" opener, are me, my oldest son, Sam, next in line are good friends Darren, & Darren's dad, Virg. They have all been a pleasure to have hunted & fished with , so I thought including them in my signature file was a worthy thing to do!

Hello,
Rochester native for 5 years. Grew up in SE MN a good portion of my life.
Avid outdoorsmen since I was a young child thanks to a few years living in Montana. Started flyfishing at 7, hunting at 20. With many hours logged in the woods, on lakes and running up and down rivers I have realized my calling generally needed to be tied into hunting or fishing of sorts.
I am 20 credits away from a marketing degree that I plan on using along with my experiences to get after a job in that field.
I normally fish a ton in the spring and summer, but our addition to the family has kind of stopped that short this year. My "big trip" this year for hunting is limited to Aitkin Co. for bear. Other than that I'm usually spending a couple of weeks in MT every year for Mule Deer, and Elk, and in Minnesota I usually bowhunt for Whitetail. I just picked up predator hunting two years ago, and although we haven't taken a ton of animals, my friends and I have sure enjoyed the experiences.
I have browsed this site now and again and it seems like it is comprised of intelligent, sound individuals to carry on good conversations with, and gain knowledge from. I look forward to posting information, and sharing hunts/experiences...etc.

Hello my name is Pam Carsella my husband is Don. We own and operate Jungleland Greenhouse in Northome Mn. In the off season of the greenhouse we build custom ice fishing houses-hunting shacks. We love fishing (musky, trout and large pike). Also hunting of all sorts. If I could figure out how to post the ice houses on this sight I would but for now you can find them on Craigs list out of the Cities.

Welcome. A good friend of mine is from Northome. I cannot remember her maiden name but I know that her Mother still lives there. I will have to ask her her maiden name.

Just joined here today. Looks like a great place to hangout :dancinred: I'm a 38 year old single dad from the Thief River Falls area.

Thanks for having me!

I am 49, 2 sons 20 & 23, married 23 (she says soon to be 24) years, live in White Bear Lake, 3 dogs, work at 3M, retired from navy. Since getting out my sons want to get into hunting so now here I am trying to learn new things at this age. We have been enjoying it though. We just had our youngest dog in trainging. can't wait to see how he works out. Looking for new friends to go hunt with & find places to go. Like I said very much a amatuer at this.

I could type for hours here but it would waste a lot of time...So if ya got any questions gimme a holler!!

Name is Kevin and I live in Duluth. I like fishing for the sport but not the eats. Like to hunt deers and drink beers. Taking up bowhunting this year with my brother. I'm shooting a Mission X3 with a 54lbs draw weight and 29" draw length, and for only shooting it for about 2 months (maybe 10 times) I can hit better with it than my bro who has been shooting his for about 5 years. Looking forward to the season starting next weekend, but I can't wait for my 3 year old boy and 4 year old girl to get bigger so they can enjoy the thrill of the hunt. That is where it is going to get fun. Well that is it for about now. Thanks for welcoming me and have hunting.

Hello I am 30 years old,married and have 2 sons. They are 8 and 6. I enjoy hunting birds,squirrels,and ther critters but mostly my passion is deer.

I have two kids at home with me all the time!! Oldest 15 youngest 11. Both hunt and fish, not as much as we would like to. Sports is going strong at these ages. But we manage to fill the freezer.
Already had some response to a ? on beetles for skulls, and really am thankfull for a quick response. I have been boiling for about 6 yrs. and can be time consuming. And not 6 yrs. continuously, I think you know what I mean. I saw this on craigs list and gave it a try, glad I did.
Huntin' season is here good luck to all!!!

Howdy all, my name is Steve.(buckhunter63) I'm 45 going through the big D and don't mean Dallas.
I have two kids at home with me all the time!! Oldest 15 youngest 11. Both hunt and fish, not as much as we would like to. Sports is going strong at these ages. But we manage to fill the freezer.
Already had some response to a ? on beetles for skulls, and really am thankfull for a quick response. I have been boiling for about 6 yrs. and can be time consuming. And not 6 yrs. continuously, I think you know what I mean. I saw this on craigs list and gave it a try, glad I did.
Huntin' season is here good luck to all!!!

Hello, I'm Jason and new here. I happened upon the site while browsing craigslist... Can't believe I didn't find it some other way a long time ago. Anyways a little about myself... I'm 30 and love all things outdoors but have a special little love of hunting. I've been hunting since I could remember (before I was old enough to carry a gun) and I've hunted many things from squirels, grouse, and pheasants to mule deer, antelope and bear. Now it's mostly just deer and pheasants with my german shorthair since time is always scarce these days. Anyways that was probably way more than anyone cares to know. Just saying hello and I'll be seein you around!
-
I guess I'm a little behind on welcoming all the new members (been busy fishing)
So....... ::welcome:: to everybody new!
Hope you enjoy the site as much as I do....It's a great place for information and find new friends!

Hi my name is Spencer and I just found you guys on craigslist. So far I've seen and read lots of great things and look forward to sharing stories. I am 26 married and I live in Eagan. I fish and hunt. Mostly a bass fisherman. I just started archery hunting 2 yrs ago and have yet to get a deer, although I think this year is the year. I also do a bit of pheasant hunting when I get time. Thats all for now. Good luck to all.

Hello, my name is Rick and live in the rural Mankato area. Married, 2 kids, one out and the other is 18 and getting cut loose soon, hopefully.
I have a Black Lab, don't know why I specify, everyone knows there is just one hunting dog, a Black Lab, which is my second, the first is my avatar after his porcupine encounter. I hunt pheasant mostly, both on private and public land locally. Also hunt grouse and whitetail deer in the Becida area of Minnesota, some public, but mostly private. I am blessed because of my late father's love of hunting, to have 180 acres in this northern Minnesota area that is equipped with a semi modern cabin. I thank him every year, even at tax and insurance time, but mostly when I am freezing my behind off in this great outdoors that he loved.
Also do some varmint hunting locally, use to shoot prairie dogs for several years just east of Norris South Dakota but local poisoning put a dampening on that.
Don't hunt waterfowl, I don't care for the taste so I don't hunt them, simple enough I guess.
Do fish some, but not nearly enough. When I do, I target walleyes or panfish on ultralight gear which I have gone up to 4 lb test on the panfish, just can't see the 2 lb anymore with these 50+ year old eyes.
Other hobbies, handgun shooting would pretty much describe that. Both for fun and competition, plus some training that I offer locally.

:newhere: This will be my first time out hunting EVER! I am very excited about the whole hunting experience!
I'm in my late 30's and have one daughter who has been Bow Hunting several time in the past few years, and Rifle hunted once. She is in a Archery Club through the school and has went on to the State and National Archery Tournament (NASP) :dancinred: I am a very Proud Mom!!
I love to fish :fishing: I bait my own hook and take the fish off the hook, I just learned how to clean Sunfish this past summer - Yea that was Fun! I also love to snowmobile and 4-wheel.
:queen: Even tho I'm a girly-girl I don't mind getting dirt under my nails. My goal is to get a deer (before my daughter does) gut it and hang it on the wall!
Well this is my story in a nut shell....hope to be sharing photos of my success, by the end of this hunting season!! :fudd:

Hello Everyone!
OK- I'm a newbie to this site and I'm addicted to it! :toast:
I'm Angel, I am not quite married, but Gosh darn it, I'm hoping to get that ring soon from my hubby Nathan ;)! We have an AWSOME 2 year old daughter, Faith.
I stay at home with Faith, which gives me a fair amount of time to spend outdoors- which we all LOVE!
I use bow and riffle to hunt deer and I also shoot grouse, porcupines, racoon, ect. I enjoy shooting skeet.
I fish whenever its possible- Ice fishing is my all time favorite.
I guess if I left anything out- Don't be affraid to ask

Hi, a little bit about myself, I'm 50, I grew up in Bismarck ND, I lived in Colorado from 89 to 2000. I have lived in St Peter MN since. I'm a Special Ed teacher working in Le Sueur. I have always loved to hunt and fish. In CO I was very active in the Colorado Walleye Association. I have fished tournaments but not since 2000. I was an Ambassador for Pure Fishing. I'm recently divorced and my daughter is very active in sports so I don't get out as much as I would like. I'm not really sure what else to say so :blablabla: have a great day. Jeff Mc

My name is John Cameron. I'm 19 and I live in Anoka with my wife and son, with another one coming. I work as a maintenance tech. at lofthouse bakery. I'm finishing a degree in robotics/ industrial contolls. I fish throughout the seasons and hunt everything my budget will allow. Thankfully, though, I do buy most of my equipment second-hand so I do have the means to hunt just about everything in Minnesota. My father isn't much of a hunter, so I learned most of what i know about the outdoors the best way; the hard way.

Ok here goes! I'm Dave. 39 yrs old. Married w/children. Boy 11, girl, 8, and boy 3. I absolutely love outdoors. But deer hunting is the best. I live in SW MN, I've lived here for 17 years. I am originally from the northern most part of WI. Still have family up there, one of which is a deer/bear guide. So I pretty much have it made come deer season. I'm happy to have found this site, seems to be alot of fun people here.

Yo all.
Just turned 51 two days ago but mentally never made it past 17!
I live near WHite Bear Lake with my family. We all shoot. hunt and fish, as well as take extensive roadtrips (Last July we did route 66 all the way).
Daughter at college in New York (Cornell) and Son here at Century in WB Township. Deer season opens Saturday and we'll be out in the woods.
More guns and fishing equipment than we know what to do with but as long as the family is having fun as a family, that's what counts!
Looking for a cabin in Northern minnesota or Wisconsin but haven't found the right one yet!
Been shooting since I was a bit shy of four years (Grandpa believed in early training with a pellet rifle) and now teach Gun Safety at Oakdale gun club in Lake Elmo as well as being certified as an NRA instructor for RIfle, Shotgun and Pistol. My family and I use every opportunity we can to get out in the woods and enjoy the woods for what they are, and those who never get out and just SIT in November or December really are missing a neat piece of nature!
ANd the DNR is really looking for more instructors RIGHT NOW, so if you are pretty good with kids and have shot or hunted for a few years, give it some thought.....it's your chance to put something back and help others out!
My son would like to do more duck hunting so I guess we'll rebuild the blind at our hunting property next summer. He'd also like to do more Pheasant hunting but we laqck a place to go for that.....maybe South Dakota? Anyone have a great location for Pheasant that you might want to trade for a day of fun shooting machine guns (another of my hobbies!). And I really am a Postal Worker, too! (It's ok, I'm stable and relatively happy!!)
a\Anyway, that's our nutty family in a nutshell.
Nice to find a site such as this.....hope everyone stays safe this hunting season!

I'm 26 turning 27 on the 18th of this month. love to shoot and fish but have not started to hunt yet. i also like to collect all sorts of firearms when i have the money to.

My name is Jacob Servaty and my dad is Dennis Servaty a staff member on this web site. I lived in Owatonna from ages 2-10 then I moved to Spearfish SD, where I am now. I will be hunting with my dad, grandpa, great grandma, and others at URL. :newhere:

Hey All! :newhere:
Lets see about me....Well I'm Kaylene, 27 with a 1 1/2 year old yellow lab Morgan (as close to kids as I'm getting for a while). I currently own and run 2 businesses in Frazee. I have a Sign Shop that has been running for over 8 years and this spring started a Bait & Tackle business. My dad had one previously but for health reasons sold it, then they went under and I can't see this small town going without one, so here I am. When I'm not putting in the hours at the bait shop I'm out fishing with my dad as often as he feels up to it. And now that fall is upon us hunting is all around! 3 more days til deer hunting!!!! :dancinred: I thinks thats about everything interesting with me LOL Everyone have a safe and fun Deer season!!

Welcome to all our new members and guests!

I will introduce myself. My name is Grant, and I'm from Maplewood, MN. I obviously love to hunt and fish, with more time spent fishing, as my passion lies there a little more. I love chasing pannies, eyes, cats, and esox, but love being on the water, be it hard water or open water and will chase whatever is biting. My favorite body of water to fish is the St. Croix river, and spend a lot of water there, and fish Bald Eagle during the summer chasing muskies. I am a new father, having a 14 month old son, who has already shown and interest in fishing as well as loves looking at pictures of whitetails and elk, so I am confident that I have a future hunter/fisherman on my hands, which I'm excited about. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Hello,
I'm fairly new to the this forum but have spent a lot of time fishing. I found this online a couple of years ago through Google and signed up. Didn't spend a lot of time here for some reason though. So now I'm here and posting away. :whistling:
As for me, I grew up in North Dakota. I was a Boy Scout and spent a lot of time in the outdoors. I did a lot of camping and fishing with my parents as well. I did have another passion, which was music. So I tried to make it big in a band for a few years touring the upper Midwest. After that I moved to Omaha for some strange reason. Then move back to ND in 98 and got into computers. I moved to St. Paul in 2000 to continue my career and with all the lakes I re-lit my passion for fishing and the outdoors.
I've spent the last five years really dedicating as much time as I can to fishing and ice fishing. About three years ago I decided to make the St. Croix River my "home" water for the summer and have had great success out there with Walleye and big crappies. In the winter I like to explore a little more and go spend some time on the Croix out of Bayport but I spend a lot of time up in the Chisago area and on those lakes. I love to fish and meet new people. I really like getting new people out fishing and get them a good experience. I liked it so much that this year I started a guide service for the Croix in the summer.
I married a St. Paul girl and have made MN my home. We have a beautiful three-year-old daughter that we adopted on Christmas 2005. We also have an eleven-year-old girl that moved in with us the week before Thanksgiving and is going to be adopted by us during 2009. Family is my biggest passion so fishing sometimes takes a back seat. But as they grow I will get them all involved.
I look forward to meeting more people off this site and get out fishing with them.

Found the site accidently and registered. I'm 45 years old, married with 3 kids. I've become a more serious fisherman as I've aged. (Probably has something to do with my golf swing.) Prefer to fish for walleye, but also like to catch fish, so I'm not fussy. I hope I can pick up some fishing knowledge on the site.

If you do decide to put your perm out on Bald Eagle, let me know. I fish the lake a lot during the summer and a little during the winter. Plus, my in'laws live on the lake, so I know a few spots.........

Hello All, I am an avid 58 year old ice fisherman from Hastings, Mn. I am happily [most of the time]married with a wonderful daughter and 2 beautiful granddaughters with a third on the way. I have worked at Lock & dam #2 in Hastings for the past 31 years, yes I am an old river rat.Most of the ice fishing I've done has been chasing perch and "eyes" on the big lakes in the state and the past 3 years on lake pepin in pool #4 on the Mississippi. I have often browsed the fishing reports on this site and always found useful info on many lakes. Thought it was time to join in and maybe offer some occasional info and friendly conversation. Thanks to all!!! koke1 By the way koke1 is short for my last name which is Kochendorfer, Lee :newhere:

Welcome to MNO koke1 ::welcome:: I bet you've seen alot of interesting things working the locks over the years. Join in at any time with any conversation-we're very informal here. :fishing: :happy1: :toast: :USA:

I'll start by saying..... :newhere: I am 35 years old, married and have two wonderfull little girls. I live in the Braham area. Not to far from Hunterdown :whistling: I enjoy anything that has to do with being in the outdoors. Most of my time is spent Ice fishing the area lakes. I get laid off in the winter months so I got some time for the Ice!!! LOL I also like to geocache. It gives me something a chance to use my Garmin 400t GPS a bit more than mormal. Check it out at Geocaching.com I like summer fish a bit but from a kayak. Nothing like catching a nice northern from it and have it tow you around a little. I like to hunt deer and bear. We hunt up in Two Harbors for the bear. I bought a little Honda Reabel 250 last spring and I am upgrading that this spring sometime for a Honda Shadow 750. The Rebal is a great starter bike but I am looking for something to cruise around on. I gave myself the name 'Dardevle" because I have a tattoo of one on each arm. red/white on right arm and black/white on left. I have the faces of the spoon on my back looking inwards on my shoulder blades at my first and middle name. Nice to be here!!! Looks like a nice site!!!!!

Nice to see ya here buddy!
I'm sure I'll get your :moon: out in the boat this summer for some pike fish'in action!

Hi everyone,
Well, I finally got signed up here so you may be hearing from me once and a while. My name is Kathy, but everyone calls my Borgie. I was born in 19** so that makes me ** yrs old. My husband is Lee Borgersen and he's a regular here on MNO.
I retired from Motorola in April of 2008 after 36 yrs. I've been trying to get used to spending more time with my husband over the last 10 months even though we've been married for 45 yrs :doah: I look forward to vacation time in Ely MN every July and doing some relaxing/fishing. I also love to play bingo every Sunday afternoon.
My goal for this year is to be on the winning team during the MNO Fishing Challenge. :fishing:
It would sure be a hoot to finish ahead of the old man's team in the standings. :happybounce:

Nice to be part of the MNO family. A little about me. I'm a single parent, 17 year old son grad. this spring. I am a hard core bone collector. My fall starts in sept. and ends in 3 ft. of snow on the US Canada boader. All with a bow. I respect how anybody else hunts as long as its leagel. I also fish big big fish. I would rather catch a 12 lb walleye every 5 days then mylimit every day. I hope to enjoy shareing some outdoor banter with each and every one of you..And please take a young person fishing every chance you get. thanks

Hello. I am Rene Cadene from Ontario Canada. As the crow flies I would be not too far north of your Boundary Waters. I live in Atikokan. I recently moved from the North Shore of Lake Superior from Marathon where I worked as a steam plant engineer in a pulp mill. Now I work for Ontario Hydro in Atikokan. I have been an avid fisherman and hunter since I was young. Only started hunting big game in 2001 but have gone crazzy since then chasing big game all over N.A.
I am an administrator at Ontario's largest and most active hunting community. I have a few forums that I am a regular at and this one may well end up on my regualr list. Very warm welcome via pm's from quite a few members here which is quite endearing.

My name is Matt, 25 year old Mechanical Engineer, grew up on the MN side of the Red River, but have since bought my MN lifetime hunting and fishing and now live on the ND side of the Red. I am married to a wonderful woman who shot her first deer before we were married just to prove to me that she would be willing to try anything I like, once. We have a daughter who will be 2 in May. Her and I shared her first ice fishing trip to Rainy Lake back in February. I was so proud of her ability to last 5 minutes in the icehouse before falling in a hole. What can you say, I know I did that same more than once when I was that age. I hunt public land and grew up spending most of my weekends with Dad and Grandpa hunting and fishing. I purchased my first hunting dog, a German Wirehair Pointer, now a year old. He has got me into phesant hunting and will also help me out with my passion for waterfowl as well. His breed is very very energetic, but practically self training. I bacame a Rainy River Spring Fishing addict back in 2003 thanks to a college friend I met at Cabela's when purchasing my bow license.
Can't wait to meet some more people who share the same passions as me, hunting and fishing that is.

Hello all,
I guess I would say I am fairly new to Hunting, but been huge in the outdoors for all of my 27 yrs. I started hunting after meeting my inlaws. They have always hunted and my family didn't believe in it, or owning a gun. I have always liked camping/backpacking. Just started Ice fishing again after a 15 year hiatus. I am a mechanical designer, married, with no kids.
I thank my inlaws for helping me learn how to hunt, I started deer hunting 5 years ago, and this year tried my luck at Duck hunting, no luck though. Couldn't get up to Hinckley as much as I wanted for it this year. I am in the process of trying to find a used Shotgun in decent shape, probably an 870. I will keep a look out for threads, and any info that pops up. I always appreciate any help though.
Thanks.

Hi everyone - I am Sequioa and i just found this site. It is Really Great!!! I am 57 years old and am retired. I am a hunting and shooting nut / I went to the drug store when i was 14 years old and bought my first gun - I still have that gun! Many (MANY) guns have come and gone since. I like 'different' 'unique' 'wierd' guns (if you have one give me a shout - I am interested). I am an active reloader because I have a 500 yard rifle range on my hunting property. I will use this site - I like the shopping - when I get comfortable I will start selling on it.
GREAT TO MEET EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Howdy:
I registered a little while ago and lurked around. I felt silly with my first post being in the classifieds (buying something), so I guess it's time to post an intro.
I live in central MN, and an a lifelong hunter as well as firearms enthusiast. I'm also a reloader. I used to shoot competition, but work demands too much time now. My wife wasn't into hunting/shooting when we met. Needless to say, that has changed a bit. This afternoon, she shot the last 50 rounds of 9mm. Guess I better head off to the reloading room.

Hello All,
My name is Paul and am spending some time tonight figuring out how to navagate MWO. I am 40 years old; been married for 15 years, and have two children. I love everything outdoors, from camping with my family to grouse hunting with my buddies. I have many hobbies, but if I had to pick my favorite; it would be collecting and shooting WW2 surplus rifles. I recently started trap shooting and I think this will help me with my #1 favorite outdoor activity which is grouse hunting.
Anyway thanks for spending the time to read my first post on MWO. I look forward to chatting with and getting to know other MWO members.
Thanks
Paul

Hi Everyone, I'm Janelle and I'm a newbie. Found my way through Outdoorsman388 and have decided to get involved in this website.
Few things about me. I love the outdoors in the spring, summer, and fall however I'm not much for freezing in the winter. (although a heated fish house works) I love to fish, boat, hike, camp, BBQ, 4 wheel, attend bon fires and of course, kayak too. I've never tried white water rafting but would like to give it if the opportunity ever comes up. I guess you could say anything related to water, sun, and fun is in my book.
I plan on checking the fishing reports quite a bit and hopefully I'll find some good tips, good locations, and possibly some friends along the way.
Good luck on opener:fishing2:,

Hello everyone! Real name is Tim. Recognize some of the names on here from other sites. I'm an old guy, 62. Been retired for a few years. As you may have figured out my location is Lake Osakis. Been on 8 or 9 other sites over the last several years, some good, some not so good. This one looks like a definite keeper. I am using the same name so some of you may have read some of my posts. I think I will enjoy it here. If anyone is interested, the ice hasn't started forming on the lake yet, shouldn't be long now. I'll keep you posted. ;D

Osakis is a very beautiful lake, been there a few times - also been to downtown for the shopping! Great to see you on the site, and welcome to MNO :happy1: We look forward to hearing from you!!!! As always, if you ever need anything, never hesitate to ask :dancinred:

This is a nice forum you got here. I found it while looking for info about this year's Eelpout Festival.
My name's Ben. I live in the cities and hate it. I love fishing for big stuff like muskies, sturgeon, flatheads, etc, but I don't mind if occasional walleye jumps on my hook either. I also love ice fishing. In fact, I probably love ice fishing more than any other outdoor activity. As of now, it's only 65 days and about 21 hours until the ice first feels my weight.
I also like waterfowl hunting, coon hunting, deer hunting, rugby, and lifting very heavy stuff.

Hello all i'm new here looks like 6h 20 m old lol.
Well my name is Steve i go by slystuff on here because ii just finished reading an article on fox trapping on another site and that's what popped into my head at that moment.
I used to be on fire for hunting and fishing then I got married but that didn't change much as she was into it too; then we lost about 5 babies (long story 4 another time) and decided to try foster care/ addopt.We did foster care for a sibling group of 5 from 6-13 yrs. and after 2 years we were able to addopt them and a few months before that we had baby # 1 which yeah that made 6then a yr and a half later # 7 came along and amazingly 12 monthes later my beautiful litle boy Micah john James came along :cry: sorry emotional anyway he came 3 weeks early on oct 13th 2010 but is healthy thank GOD! Work has been off and on mostly off so money is very tight in my house, and unfortunatly hunting and fishing don't come first anymore; If i want to buy things and believe me I do i have to pinch and save and hide money no more just going window shopping seeing something I like and taking it home with me(paid for of course) so yes I stay at home a whole bunch and I'd only be kidding myself if I said that I'd trade it for anything.
The big problem that I have is that grew up hunting and fishing and love it but the way I was taught I think has something to do with how I teach my kids a total lack of patience on my part so i will no doubt be looking to you guys and gals for insight in the future as my girls and guys want to hunt and 3 of them are of age and one will be soon;and i for whatever reason haven't made it work for them yet and I feel so horrible for it....ok my story here is blipping back and forth and i can't see the bottem of it any more so it must be too long;and my two fingers are getting tired anyway so -so long for now
-
Welcome to the site. Maybe talking with the folks here will get you back into fishing and hunting.
-
I apoligize;I still fish and hunt just on a smaller scale still love both just have a young beautiful wife and a young family I go to work for a break lol And I get away with going most of the time when it dosn't cost too much..lol yep whipped I am.

Hi, My name is Chris and live in Wahpeton, ND. I fish mostly the hard water (not much for the motion of the ocean) so that is where most of my winter time is spent. Hoping to learn alot form this site and meeting a bunch of fellow hard water lovers.

::welcome:: ::welcome:: You came to the right place.

Well I have resisted because I hate doing the introduction stuff but I suppose it is only fair that I participate.
My name is Kent. I moved to St. Paul from Oklahoma after a divorce (Oklahoma wasn't big enough for the both of us) :whistling: almost 6 years ago. I met a great girl here is St. Paul and got remarried last September. I have been a hunter and fisherman since I can remember. Since my introduction to ice fishing, 5 years ago, I now think that I would rather ice fish than open water fish. As far as hunting goes I prefer upland birds to anything but I also deer hunt some. I have three Gordon Setters that I hunt with so that pretty much occupies my hunting time until rifle season comes. I grew up hunting quail in Oklahoma and it is still a one of my favorite past-times when it comes to hunting. Anytime I am not fishing or hunting you will likely find me either tinkering/building something or flying.
I joined here because I thought that it would be a good place to gather some info on fishing in Minnesota that I haven't learned yet and to meet and have good conversations with like minded folks.

My name is Travis and I live in Southwest Minnesota. I am currently going to school at Southwest Minnesota State University for my bachelors degree in Ag Business. I LOVE to hunt. Been doing it since I was 4. I went through a dozen bb guns by the time I could start shooting shotguns and rifles! I hunt everything but I am an avid bow hunter as well as goose hunter. Also love to ice fish. I am in a lot of different forums and thought I would join this one and share will fellow Minnesotans!

Just noticed this thread after about a week of being on here.
My name is Isaiah, 23yrs old, currently reside in Becker/ Clearwater MN. normally live in a fish house in the winter and my truck in the summer. I have been called a gypsy plenty of times because I move around so much. Now engaged and she put a stop to that. "I have better things to worry about." or atleast she says. Im in the Army national guard as a Cavalry Scout.
I have done alot of different things having to do with the outdoors thanks to my father, grandfather, and great grandfather from flyfishing in revelstoke BC to Dove hunting on some family land in clearwater. But never trapped anything other than pocket gophers. A random fact is I love Gary Paulsen books and hopefully be a 4th generation lumberyard owner. lol

Hey everyone I just found this website a few weeks ago and I figured I might as well introduce myself. My name is Dan I'm 22 and I'm currently a Business student at Mankato State. I'm from Inver Grove Heights and I love to hunt and fish. I normally only hunt waterfoul and pheasant, but lately I've been doing a lot of other hunting too. Fishing has always been a great passion of mine, there's nothing better than getting out on the open water or on the ice to catch some lunkers! I hope to be contributing a lot on this website in the future!

:newhere:My name is Steve I live in White Bear Lake,MN. I am 50, My wife and I of 28 years enjoy the cabin on a south St. Louis Co. lake. The kids are long gone out of the house. My main goal now is pass down fishing and hunting traditions to my grandchildren. My oldest grandsons 1st fish was a 11.5 in crappie. At 3 years old it was a highlight of my life to see him reel it in and drag it up on the beach. It is now on the wall in the cabin! We'll be hitting the ice again this weekend and hopefully get a few crappies for a fish fry.

Good evening gentlemen. New guy on the site here. I was born and raised in Minnesota. Started in McGregor, spent two years in White Bear Lake, then in Oakdale. 17 years ago I moved to New York City where I have spent a lot of time surf fishing. My wife and I will be having our first child, so we're moving back. Will be living in Mahtomedi, about a block and a half away from White Bear Lake. I look forward to learning how to fish in freshwater again!

A block and a half away from White Bear Lake.. That must mean you bought what was lake shore a few years ago. For those who don't know, the lake level has dropped over the past years and now there are wide expanses of exposed lake bed.

Hey 24yr old living in St. Cloud. From Monticello, but known to have spent a few summers/deer seasons up in the Cook,Gheen,Orr area. The last 4yrs I've been a small game air rifle hunter only. I enjoy the challenge, and haven't been able to afford the week off for deer season. I do fish when I have the time, not as often as I'd like. Prefer Northerns to Walleyes. Avid Bass guitar player. Been w/ the same girl for the last 2yrs whom I'll probably marry.

Hey Everyone-
I stumbled upon this website a couple of days ago and wanted to say hi. I'm 26 from New Hope, MN and am starting to get into hunting. I'll be heading to the fields this weekend to try and kick up some pheasants for the first time and i'm excited for my second deer season in about a month.
I'm hoping to be in the market for a pup in the near future (still working on the wife...), and have my eye on a wirehaired grif, so if anyone has any advice on the breed or tips on breeders I'd love to hear it.

Like to bow hunt for deer and duck hunt mostly, ice fish in the winter although I enjoy it all. Went out DIY archery elk hunting in Colorado this year for the first time and got a cow. Will definitely be back next year. I have a 1yr old springer who LOVES pheasants and ducks. Cant keep him out of the water.

My name is Keith Cantu. Im 30 years old and live in Andover, MN. I recently got married this past Feb. I work at Cummins in Fridley. Im an iceaholic and softwater addict! I have currently put away the boat for the year and am going insane already thinking about ice fishing! All my gear has been ready for 3 weeks now! I dont hunt so fishing is all I do and is consumed by all my time!
Im looking forward to meeting some new fishing buddies to do some fishing with. My current group of friends arent as crazy about fishing as I am so anything over 3-4 hours on the hard or soft water is way to long for them so its fishing with my pops each and everytime out and usually bring a new guy out a few times a year. I mainly fish good ol' Lake Mille Lacs throughout the year.
Lets have some ice so I calm down and get back to the real world!

Hello, Mark from Alexandria. I enjoy deer hunting with rifle the most followed closely by fishing walleyes both summer and winter. My boys took me muskie fishing this summer for the first time and this fall so I'm asking Santa for musky gear this Christmas. I can see Santa spending about a grand on it. Just bought a spearhouse from a friend and thought I'd give it a try again after a few years away from it. When I can find the time I like to get in some duck, goose and pheasant hunting too. We usally take four or trips with the four-wheelers in Hubbard Co. during the Summer. Too many toys, not enough time. Thanks for listening.

Hello, my name is Joe Temples and I live on St. Simons Island, Georgia. I deer hunted SE Minnesota for the first time last year and had a blast! I live to hunt, fish and ramble in the woods. SE Minnesota is one of most beautiful places I have ever seen! Maybe this year I can hunt longer than the first 45 minutes of the first day of the hunt. I shot the fifth buck I saw and am proud of my first Minnesota buck! He scored 136". Thanks for letting me join your forum!

welcome to the site

So, you waited for the fifth buck and then took a little one anyway. :rotflmao: Just kidding, congrats on your first MN buck and hope you get many more. Welcome to our forum.

Howdy. I am an outdoorsman from the Hoosier state. I have been kicking around the idea of heading to Minnesota for a fishing trip and maybe a fall bear hunt in the future. I figured I'd join this forum to get acquainted with how things work in Minnesota.
I have been fishing most of my life. I love to catch bluegill, but I also go after largemouth bass and crappie on occasion. I am wanting to branch out a bit and get into some walleye and smallies. Northern and musky are on my list as well. I am somewhat new to hunting as I have been chasing gobblers and whitetails the last couple of years. I just recently bought a bow and I thought it would be fun to go after a black bear after I get my shot dialed in a little better.
I'm glad to be a member of the forum here and hope to learn as much as I can from the fine folks of Minnesota.

My name is Drew Laursen, I've been an avid outdoorsman all my life. I have a degree in Fisheries and Wildlife from the University of Minnesota, which is where I met my beautiful wife. I sell hunting land and cabins for Timber Ghost Realty. It's a great job that lets me spend time outdoors and interact with hunters. I enjoy bow hunting, fishing, grouse, pheasant and turkey hunting, and backpacking in the Boundary Waters.

Hello all,
I am 21 years old and am currently deployed as an MP in the US Army. When I return to the states I will be new to Minnesota and want to enjoy the outdoors as much as possible. I am equipped for mainly duck hunting but am interested in other game. Unfortunately, I will not be able to hunt birds this season so I will have to enjoy what spring has to offer.
Hopefully this site will make the transition a little easier.
Thanks.
-
Hi and welcome to the site. Turkeys are abundent throughout the state and makes for nice spring hunting.

Hi everone. I'm new to the site. I just turned 31 and live in Lino Lakes with my wife. We have a 2 year old daughter and another one on the way. (we'll find out the sex in a few weeks). I work downtown Minneapolis at a Brokerage firm. I've been fishing and hunting most of my life, but recently our family just purchased 400+ acres in the Pequot Lakes area near my parents. It's got everything an outdoorsman could want. Wildlife (deer, turkey, pheasant, grouse, fox, coyote, wolf, bear, duck, geese) corn fields, praries, woods, wetlands, creeks. We'll have the rest of our lives to fix it up. Right now we're trying to figure out the deer patterns and where to place foodplots in relation to stands/wind direction. It's exciting and am learning alot. I'm currently trying to make and create my own turkey calls. So far I've made scratch box calls and tube calls. I'll post some pics on here shortly.

Hello All!
I have been a fisherman all my life but I am fairly new hunter at 33 years of age (just 4 years into it). I live in Rosemount MN. I have been really enjoying Bow Hunting and next year I hope to get out as much as possible. I have a new job that will be flexible so I am trying to take advantage of that. Anyways I am hoping to get ideas from you good folk on the Minnesota Outdoorsman.
Thanks!

Hello.
I live in the Albert Lea area. 40 years old, married for 16 years. 1 son, 4 years old.
Hunter, fisherman, occasional camper.
Recently took up archery. Seriously contemplating switching to archery-only hunting.
Usually I fish in Ontario because that's where our cabin is, but I had pretty good luck at one our local lakes hauling in bluegills and multiple types of catfish last fall.
Slowly but surely we're saving up to buy a 40 acre plot of land in St Louis County.
-
new to MNO. 25 and live in St. Paul. go to school full-time and also work a lot.
my buddy and I finally have everything we need for ice fishing after making 1 big buy each year for the last few years.
we do most of our ice fishing around the cities. heard White Bear has an okay crappie bite but not until 5:30 p.m. until about midnight. we're looking for some good day fishing (my buddy's married so he can't go every weeknight like me), and we're not picky about we catch.
we usually fish the north metro but are open to go where the fish are.
we've had some luck on Bald Eagle, but usually only 1 or 2 keeper crappie for a few hours work, and that doesn't split well between 2 guys.
thanks!
Zach

Welcome Casey,
Being a vet puts you right up at the top of the MNO food chain. I'm one of those members that got "scattered throughout the midwest" and landed in Illinois. It's ok though ;) . They still treat me as an equal anyhow :happy1:

Thanks for the warm replies! I have been doing some scouting for turkeys already with little success in the local area. Anybody have any ideas of areas that may hold a few birds?

I'm offering free advertising....do you need a banner?

Welcome all U Newbies to the site...best outdoorsite, IMO. A bunch of friendly guys and gals that all enjoy the same.. Don't forget to sign up for our friendly MNO annual fishing contest...all you need to do is be able to take a pic of your fish!

Hello guys & gals, I also jumped ship to this site. About myself I'm from Pittsburgh, pa but have been fishing in Minnesota, upper Michigan, Wisconsin and Canada since my first trip at age 8. I've been going to Life of Riley Resort on Lake Vermilion for the last 18 years now missing only 3 fall trips. Love it so much that after I retire might make my summer home there. I have owned a drive thru coffee shop now for the last 5 years after leaving the engineering field. Hope to get to know a lot of new people here thanks
-
few guys here that frequent Ely and a couple live ther, one runs a bait store. Glad to have ya!

Hi I am one of the new members that came here today. Nice forum here. I am going to be 62 but feel like 40. :happy1: I own a company and we make the Lindell Ice Rigs and Rod Holders. I hope it is ok to say that. It is a part time thing we do. I also work full time but hope to retire in about 3 years. I like to of course hunt and fish. I have really gotten into smoking, and bbq and sausage making in the last few years. Found some great guys on another forum that all moved here today. They have a wealth of knowledge and are happy to help others out. I hail from the Baudette area. Nice to be here.

Wow that is awesome General. My wife and I do all of the production etc. All contacts are good things. Let me know how to proceed and I can send some samples to you too. My website is: www.lindellicerigs.com Out colors are black background with orange lettering. Maybe you can see on the website. Thanks much.

As long as you are active on MNO, the advertising is free. Do you have a banner jpg.? If you don't have one, our resident graphics designer maybe able to help out. And that's it! I'll link it to your website....and we are golden!

Hi everyone, signed up yesterday but call me slow to introductions. Usually I'm chasing eyes or pan fish during the open water season then switch gears and dedicate the fall for chasing ringnecks and grouse. Cooking outdoors is my main passion though, I should own stock in Kingsford!! I purchased one of Todd's tubes last year and the thing gets a work out. Thanks for having me!
-
Welcome. Chasing ringnecks is my main activity outdoors as well. I hoping to chase some Grouse with Corney this year if things work out.
-
Thanks general, went out to western MN 2 weeks ago and from what I saw it should be a fun fall!!
-
Getting behind on my welcomes here so: Welcome Moose Hunter, Coffee, LPS Amazen and last but not least Bobber. Looks like a fun bunch to have on board here. Should be a lot of fun! :Clap:

Hi guys and gals. I have not been around in a while. I moved and moved my parents this summer. I went from a townhouse to a never ending bottomless pit of wasps, weeds, varmints, and just about any critter squatters you could imagine. I put my boat in this spring and took it out this fall. The only other time I saw it was when the real estate agent called and said that it was sunk. I knew it was going to be a tough summer going in. I hope at sometime to go back and see what happened in the fishing contest this year. I hope TGO is not still counting on that old metal plate in his head to protect him from another Borgie beatdown. There is no way I can go back and see what I have missed this summer. I talked to The General a couple of weeks ago and he talked about all of the great new members that have found this site. I'm an old guy. My father spent a lot of the summer in ICU and then transitional care. He not only made it through that but is back to chasing skirts in Fla right now. Mom is not too worried though. The walker has a governor on it I moved up into the East Bethel area. I love it here and I look forward to easing back into the best all around Minnesota Outdoorsman site that I have ever found. PS--- One grandchild born opening fishing weekend with another due on Christmas eve. :happy1: :happy1:

I found this site after wandering around HSO and wondering what was going on. I had enjoyed that place for many years and participated regularly. Lately though it seems to be a nearly private playground for a handful of people to jab at each other like 3rd graders.
I am retired living in White Bear Lake, MN. I like to hunt, mostly upland. A couple of Brits help with that. Fishing is a way to spend some time but I seldom care if anything bites. I spend a lot of time reading mysteries. Three kids spread out a bit keep things interesting. My wife retired a year ago after spending a lot of time as the Director of Customer Service at Pheasants Forever.
I hope to find some interesting things to read hear and not see a dozen people plug the system with foolishness.

Soon to be visiting relocated son (Maple Grove). Looking for deer hunting opportunities in MN. My old fart buddies here in Colorado don't hunt anymore. Plus I enjoy hunting with my son. Anyone familiar with Ten Point Lodge down Caledonia way? It's one of the private land opportunities we're looking at.
-
Not new to MNO, just been gone for quit some time.
I'm married, 52 yrs old with 2 daughters here in Mn and a step daughter and stepson in African.
Made a career change last year and am a Realtor now and also own a home remodeling company. Times on the lake were far and few between the last few yrs due to a work related injury. Hopefully this winter I can get back on the ice as much as I want to.
Did take one Bucket list trip out to Seattle and did some crab fishing in the Puguet Sound, opening to make that a annual trip.

Well I qualify as newbe so will add my quick note.
A Ranger for many many years and have hunted for longer than most, only reason is I'm older than most posts I have read. It took most of my life to realize that it is not the shot that counts the most but the preparation and companionship that are the most important. Have hunted and harvested every critter possible in MN and surrounding states but now limit myself to Deer and Grouse at the Farm. 200 acres of woods with 40 acres of hay. Have made 10 small food plots over last 5 years with total of 3 acres in fresh deer food. Forest Grove where I was born 73 years ago is now my hideaway.
Stay healthy and safe and never stop hunting or fishing until you tip over....

Hi guys and thanks for the warm welcomes! I'm born and raised in MN and I love the outdoors. I enjoy fishing, hunting, reading, baking, gardening, and I love bugs! I like spending time in the woods looking for bugs and critters, and playing with my dogs. I love to fish for a variety of species but panfish are my favorites. I've recently been spending time fishing the Mississippi River and I love the thrill of not always knowing what could be on the line - the river is so diverse! :smiley:

welcome aboard Sharon and Iowaboy. glad to have ya. now we need fishthumper to introduce himself.
i'll vouch highly for all 3 of them!!!!!!!!!! :happy1: :happy1:
-
yes welcome Iowaboy!!! I have seen your posts on ido and you always impress me and then your humor kicks in!!! I love it!!!!
and Glenn I hear ya!!!
-
Thanks ! I will be more than happy to post what I see on a daily basis.
But, for the last four years several including myself over 'there' have had terrible problems posting, putting up pictures, replies getting booted, on and on and no one would do anything but blame our servers,UGH!! I have three servers I work from, really?????!! All of them are broken??
Anyway, it takes me an average of six hours per week to take pictures of what I think you will find interesting, write up the problem, what it took to find and fix it, proofread it and upload pictures.
Please for the love of Pete, IF I have problems here would someone please help me beyond blaming my server and telling my I have to type it up in word and then hit submit forty times before and even then if it will go??
I am getting old, and a bit cranky when things dont work and I really get testy when its always my fault, and when it is my fault, I will own up to it and go sit in my corner.
-
the only issue i may see here is if you dont resize the picture a bit it will post sideways......like you with a half bottle of jack in ya!!!! :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Thank you Gunner.

I heard I needed to get my rear end over hear. So another IDO guy jumping on board.
Name is John Rasmussen. I hunt and fish a lot, other hobbies being shooting pool in a league. I have worked in automotive my whole life and run a repair shop in the north metro so if anyone has any needs I am happy to help. Impressive selection of emoji's

Another newbie......welcome to Mn Outdoorsman. :happy1:

More welcomes!!

Great to see posts from the new members. It will take a while for all of us to know each other enough to have a general picture of who we are talking to on a given forum. Don't be surprised or offended if we get mixed up and forget who's who. I think the "search" function works well for you to search for past posts of any member to help you get to know them better. Cheers to all.

Wowsirs! Take another one of my patented junkets to suburban Flanders and look what happens. :doah: Welcome to MNO Sharon, Iowaboy, Fish Thumper, Rodwork, Tumhoefer, & jrasmussen. Hotspot works so thinkin' I should probably go back up there... :scratch: Please make yourselves at home & feel free to move about the cabin. 🛶 🏡

I know he's busy fixing everyones problems in the middle of nowhere. We keep up via texts. He may just be an old plow boy, but that guy can fix anything.

We have a gal over there, her name is Sharon, maybe you guys have heard of her. :rotflmao: She used to set up these get to gethers and members could meet up. Maybe we could do one of those sometime, not sure how spread out you clowns are. Otherwise Mike hes stuck in the middle of cornfields in Iowa. I actually ran my boat down to him to fix 4 hours away because I trust him.
No shame on being on both sites. ;)
-
yes have read her posts too, don' blame ya on taking yer boat to him either!!!...
I'm 10 miles north of Osakis...

We've seen Sharon a time or 2 here, good gal. We've had a few ice fishin get togethers the last few yrs, usually a hoot especially at Glenn's expense..lol. just kidding bud. That's always a winter option.

I could totally coordinate some MNO gatherings! The IDO gatherings are always fun and I plan to do more there too! I should do a roll call post here and see abouts where everyone is! 😁🍻
-
Ya I am still here, been busier than a slinky on an escalator.
Someone sent me a picture of Glen's deer, from what I understand it died laughing in its tracks, I was told Glen shot so many times the gun barrel got hot enough it would droop between shots and for some reason the deer thought that was hilarious watching the barrel droop, straighten out again when fired then droop again.

Thanks for the kind words from everyone!!
I will teach Glen one way or another about bullheads!!

I'm with Glenn on this one. I'll take a pike deep fried over a walleye anyday. But only if someone else is willing to keep and clean them. They are also really tasty pickeled. I make several batches of pickeled Pike each winter. Everyone who trys them loves them.

I do keep a couple a year to fry up as well. But sure does not mean we are not going to raze Glenn about the only fish he can catch with a spear.

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: Yea scenic, not all those smoked fish I post have spear marks. :tut: :happy1: :stillfish: :fishing:
There's a pile caught in a boat.

I am very new here. By the way most post read it looks like poor Glenn needs help tuning his hunting and fishing skills.

Great idea Sharon. The GTG are always fun and the high light is always your baking.

Another new rollover from the IDO site here.
I'm up in the Cloquet area, and fish some out on Lake Superior and have spent alot of time camping/fishing out on the islands up in Voyageurs National Park, mostly on Namakan and East Rainy lakes. Love the emoji choices here :rotflmao:

LIKE I explained over on IDO, I use the emojis alot. One never knows how someone may be interpreted via typed text either here or email. One would think with an emoji a person can figure out if he's being funny, serious or PO'ed.

Hey Leech !!
Nope, still sledless. Have a wheeler that i can use but just not the same. As I get older I find that fishing in the boat is alot more fun than sitting on the ice LOL.
Dutch, yes I do love me some VNP time each summer!! The truck portage situation (just the dumping of all the water for my leeches) at Kettle Falls has me staying on the Namakan side for my trips next summer again. Its just a really long drive from the Black Bay ramp down to the Sand Bay island area that I like to fish on the East end of Rainy. Namakan was really good to me last summer and hope it is again next year.
Thanks guys, nice to find another spot to glean and share info!
