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

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 Butch Lindskog from Center City, MN.. I am 61, almost ready to retire ( God willing), have 2 boys in their 30's and married to an "understanding" wife.. (Had to throw that in to keep peace.) Have a house in Grand Marais, MN and try to spend as much time there, fishing and hunting, as is possible.. I enjoy drinking beer (or anything available) so if you stop by, come prepared..

Hi all. My name is Dan from the New Prague mn area. I have 3 kids,Zack 8, Preston 4, Eliana 2. I have been married for 4 months,dont ask! ::)
 I am 34 and can never be outdoors enough!!!!
I hunt and fish way to much to be married!!     
Lucky she gives me the KITCHEN PASS when I need it! LOL  Duck & Goose hunting would be on the top of my list. Always looking to take people hunting or like going with new people and new spots. Well that is enough about me.
   GREAT SITE, I FEEL LIKE I AM HOME! 8)

Dan,

Talk soon,

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. 

Anyway, it ie really weird being on a site where waterfowl hunting is not the primary focus   Fishing in my mind is what you do when there is nothing waterfowl related that you can do 

[Bufflehead]

 Alan!! Welocome to MNO my old friend...Great to have you on board

Chuck here, Vickie is also on this site

[h2ofwlr]

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.

[JohnWester]

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!

Tried Deer hunting, but got Shot at, so not for me, but enjoy the stories. Oh yeah, I'm 49, recently divorced and have a beautiful 9 yr old daughter. Probably not the site here for it but I love to Geocache too.

[Woody]

Welcome to MNO fishercz20!  As far as Geocache...we don't have a thread for it, but it is an outdoor activity!  So with enough interest perhaps we'll have a thread for it one day soon.

Welcome Gary!

First step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

I don't wanna recover, therefore I ain't admitting anything!

[Mayfly]

[buckrub]

thanks mayfly, i look foward to checking out everything this offers. it sounds like a bunch a assume people who share the love for the outdoors.

[luvnlife]

I know Buckrub and let me tell you, he might be addicted to muskies but the muskies aren't addicted to him. Ask him how many he boated last year.   

[Woody]

I'll bite-hey Buckrub, how many Muskies did you boat last year?  As many as me? 

[buckrub]

Alls i can say is more than luvnlife. But the most assome part of the summer was my 12 year old son Brody caught his first.

[Woody]

Well then your 12 yo is one up on me!  Never caught one, on purpose or  by accident :( 

[guythathunts]

My name is Greg (guythathunts) and I am infact a guy that hunts. I'm 22 and live in St. Cloud. I have been married for 6mo. and have a choc. lab springer cross named Duke. I love Duke very much... and my wife too! I love to talk outdoors and have an opinion on everything. I also wanted to share that I have had 2 great days in a row. Yesterday I got my shoulder mount back, and today i bought a new shotgun! I think hunting 24/7, and am glad that I found a place to ask questions and share knowledge about the outdoors.

PS. whoever is responsable for having this site equipped with spell check is absolutely wonderfull!
