Rinella is a Dork - Episode 312

Ditto.
I did ski some, like I said. LOL, it was China Peak ski area then. Not Sierra Summit.
Never had the desire to drill a hole & fish. I get nervous over frozen water.
Comes from a time snowshoeing @ Lake Mary behind Mammoth. Middle of a snowed over frozen lake & I heard the cracking. I got off quick and never stepped onto a frozen lake again.

But I would be right there on the thaw casting the openings. Brown Baggers we were called.

I thought the same thing, you beat me to the punch. And hey, it's 2022, if you do it right, I think "that" would happen...I wouldn't know, but I have read about it in thick books with big words and very few pictures.

Like people take too many large ones? Unpack that, I'm curious.

Pretty much just that. It selects for the largest fish. Might not make a difference on some lakes, but it really looks like it did on Mille Lacs when they opened it up to spearing when the walleye fishing tanked.

I don't think your crazy. I love your state for fishing. It's 1000 times better than ours. You guys manage your fisheries way better.

Tbh people from Wisconsin coming here to fish bothers me much less than residents from the Dakotas.

How about Nebraskastan?

To add to this already entertaining thread, the worst sport on the planet is golf. No comparison.

Not a problem. Pretty much just North Dakota people that annoy us.

Nothing is more annoying than a Minnesotan in the Dakotas. (jokes)

What about an ex-pat currently from Iowa?

When I was a Minnesotan, I really only objected to Chicagoans, but that was Then, and Then was a LONG time ago..

How do we feel about snowmobiling cause I had a heck of a fun day yesterday.

Snowmobiles make great target practice.

Thank you for this thread.


Ice fishing is cool but I’ve never thought it was all that. I fish all winter, but prefer the open water below the dams.

Yesterday I talked my wife into taking the day off and went down to Discovery Ski Area. It was the first downhill skiing I had done since before my daughter was born 13 years ago.

I used to love skiing, and yesterday I remembered why: Cheese Fries. There are no Cheese Fries readily available on the hard water.

Great business idea! Poutine cart on large frozen lakes. I'm close enough to Quebec, I could probably make a killing...

Wait, were you at Whiteface recently, or is that a chain?! We have one of those.

They are a chain, definitely one at Winter Park in CO and at Stowe… Loon… probably others but those are the first ones that come to mind.
