I am planning a 3-4 day trip with my dad to the Pond. I have two weekends picked out (based on favorable moon phases), but I am having trouble deciding on one. Mid-Sept or Mid-Oct.

I dont have a ton of experience on the Pond during either of these times so I am wondering if one may be better than the other.

Any input is appreciated.

thanks in advance.

Call Steve Jonesi for advice, you may find his information at www.stevejonesi.com

Others to contact for info might include, Luke Ronestrand, Lee Tauchen, or Gregg Thomas.

My wife and I were on the big pond last week for vacation. The owner of the resort we stayed at (Tim Chapman) www.millelacsresort.com said that last year Sept. was his best month...for what it's worth.

Helpful hint: Tulibee spawn.

Anyone have an average time of year when that happens?

I decided to go in November. I'm already cold just thinking about it. I should have the lake and wind to myself
