Cookie's Upper Red Lake Fishing Report

Our first weekend on the ice was a little slow for us. Chris in  North Dakota with his boys had some good action the first 16 hours then she just fizzled out.
 Dan and Mel had Florida for the weekend . They only managed to get 4 keepers. They did have a grand time on a grand lake and will be back tomorrow for a Christmas vacation.
 Montana had another customer that has been coming for years . Leroy his son Scott and Scotts daughter Nataly. They only managed a couple fish at best.
 California had Joe and his family Kathy,Lucy and Izec? They all ready made plans for next year same dates. Even though the fishing was slow they did enjoy there stay.
 Wayne came for old Minnesota. We played some cards, watched some movies. Wayne is a dear friend of mine that we worked together in the auto body trade. He came in saturday and sunday to help with some  truck windows plus a door on the red baron.. It will make it a little easier to go on the lake with window that are closed.. he lost 3 fish and only landed two.
 We moved Larry and Dan yesterday . They have been fishing in Kentucky our ice castle. They have gotten a few fish but nothing to brag about.
 It sure would of been nice to say limits were caught?
 Jonny boy and I got all the houses moved into a new area. There spread out so we will see what happens.
Brian and Stacy checked into montana yesterday. They have also been coming up for years. We also checked in Dan and his buddy Jerry into florida. Later today we will see if they had any  action.
 Were back to square one with the red baron as we have good fuel pressure. Sure would be nice to figure out the problem.
 I 'm going to pick up a timing light today, I'm not even sure when was the last time I used a timing light. I would guess over 20 years.
 Our ice castle Kentucky opened up for this coming weekend 24th 25th 26th?
