| Usually if you can find one that's drinking Leinies Original you know she's a keeper. Just make sure you have a fresh roll of TP at the cabin. |

| Pop quiz: find the Twin Cities metro area on this aerial photo of MN.
HINT: The Twin Cities metro area is nowhere near the center of the state, which is shown with crosshairs. It's not in the northern half either.

Location: oswego, il | This poll is screwed! The location of the twin cities cannot be defined by words!
If you want a northwoods bar hopping(pub crawl for you city folks) experience try Hurley. Blend in if you can or prepare to defend yourself.

| I'm not from the ghetto (Minnesota) but I did live there for 6 years, The Twin Cities are definitely considered Southern Minnesota. |

we catch lots of low to mid 40s up there with the occasional 46+... while the size avg up there is no where near the land of giants in MN, there is nothing like "up north".... catching muskies is only part of being up there...

Location: oswego, il | I have witnessed Brad up there fishing the northwoods. That area which lets call area X is my favorite area to fish in Wisconsin. |

| Reading the discussion about whether the twin cities are in southern or northern MN reminds of the differing opinions about where, "up north" starts in WI. If you are from Racine, probably anything north of Hwy 10, Milwaukee, north of Hwy 29, and if you grew up in in central WI, north of 8. |

Location: Contrarian Island | it starts to feel like 'up north' about the time we cross the WI river by Merrill for us southern Wisconny boys! |
|

| Brad, I would agree that it certainly starts to look and feel like "up north" by Merrill, but I lived in the snow belt of the Upper Peninsula for 19 years and when we got to Merrill, coming South, it always felt like we were finally getting close to home in central WI. But, when you live in the Keweenaw Peninsula, just about everything is south. |

Based on the license plates over by me it looks more like summer long cityot convention. |

| It's not "Up North" for me until we pass the last stop light on 51 in Woodruff. Still see our share of IL plates, but thankfully most of the FIBS stay behind in the Minocqua area. And I think Illinois ends just North of the Dells... |

| Ive noticed the influx of FIP's in the Barnes area and they are for the most part really nice people but definitely cannot call any of them outdoors people but ya gotta give them credit for trying. |

| I'm from the twin cities and "up north" has always started once you get past Mille Lacs! Never really considered ML truly "up north." Typical Conversation between MN fishermen: "You hitting Pond or heading up North?" I often hear Alex area/Big D/West Battle referred to as "out west."
I'm with BNelson...nothing compares to the Norman Rockwellesque "up north" vibe of Northern WI. We may have bigger skis but it doesn't compare to feeling over there! |
