I was in one of the boats out there. Fishing was very slow. Water temps around 35°.

however to not have to break through ice and have a sunny day on a lake in Minnesota in January was a surprise. While we we walking around the lake, we were thinking it must have been a great feeling, even if the fishing was slow.

It was a hoot on Saturday. My boat is in storage, so I put on my waders and cast for over an hour. No follows, but just getting out was fun. And bizarre to see a windsurfer, a solo canoeist, six muskie boats, and a bald eagle on a City lake in January. I even made it on a local photographers daily photo blog. I'm the poster boy for January 7: http://www.minneapolisdailyphoto.blogspot.com/

The fishing wasn't that slow. We had action from four fish and my buddy managed to land this chunky 34".

Great pics. I heard there were boats out there, but it's even more impressive to see that some fish were biting! Nice job guys.

True. But you can troll if you're powered by your electric.
