Location: Ogden, Ut | Oh man, 3 weeks til my plane lands in Madison...10 1/2 more work days (yeah, there's some days off and a holiday in there), a few days on the water to practice a couple of new techniques I plan to employ, and about 17 sleepless nights. I've been waiting for this trip since February.
I've disassembled, cleaned and re-assembled 3 reels - and I'm not even taking them along! Maybe I'll work on finding my cool weather gear. That should kill a couple hours. I hope a crisis or two pops up at work, that tends to make the time go by faster. Good friends, good fishing, good times; this Outing rocks. I'm really looking forward to drinking a Spotted Cow - it's been nearly a year after all!
I wish Kevin was going to be there.

Sorno, you're a man after my own heart. Good friends, good fishing, and even better beer. Every time I head up to Eau Claire, I can count on a sixer of spotted cow waiting for me. |

Location: Racine, Wi | So far the baby has cooperated. 3.5 more days till I have TWO of them!!?? Man, what has this world come to. lol
I can't wait to get up there. That's a good Saturday to Sunday week for me up there. Haven't been up that way in fall in a few years. Looking forward to drag'n some meat, getting Sorno a topwater fish in October and watching the boys drink spotted cows while I schwill some Guiness. Mmmmm tastey. Ah yes, and hopefully a mega LDF tank as well. That would top it off nicely. |

Location: Gurnee, Illinois | Paul, Skyview has some funky hours. I believe they are closed on Tues and Wed, and don't open until 4Pm Thurs-Mon. Best to leave a message with the dates you want a room, and then a call back number so they can confirm with you. Usually someone calls back within a day or two.

| Perfect drift,
I will also be rowing some gin clears Thurs-Mon in PI. Family time so I'm limited to fishing when they are sleeping. Nothing like rowing in the night! I'll keep an eye out for you.
Good luck! |

| Just got back. I only fished 7 hours total from Fri-Sun because of family outings. I have to say it was the best sucker bite I haver experienced in the 7 years fishing there. I only worked one dark stained lake. Water temps 58ish. Way humid, rain, wind, dead calm it didn't matter I was running for more suckers. I also had two magnum tails shredded. In all I made contact with 7 fish. Three in the boat 38, 39, 44, three lost with bad hook ups, and the one that would have been my new personal best easliy a 50 inch class fish from a non-cisco lake. It seemed like 1-2mins before I finally turned her, then she surfaced and was only 2ft away from my partners frickin net. You know the rest she spit the one 3/0 I had in her. I need to beef the hooks up, the piggies are already out despite what the local guides and PI reports are saying.
Ramble on section-- I'm haunted by this fish and even more then ever now because I believe and had a second dance again today. I woke up early before departing PI, drove to town for a sucker and made 7 passes and on my last pass at 9ish in the same spot she hit yesterday screamed the clicker like a salmon but I didn't connect when I ripped her. It had to be her, she owns that little bay! Sorry to ramble on but when I try to explain this stuff to in-laws, etc by comparing the moment to seasonal waves in Hawaii and how people don't work while it's going.....it didn't work we had to leave at 11am.
Here's a pic of the 44 and the shredded sucker from my haunting
Sorry about the vert hold...I noticed a vertebrae out of whack
