fishing

I went with my great-uncle (kinda like a grandpa to me) and w caught the limit of 60 sunies between me, him, and a guy that we go out with. Pretty good for the relaxing and all, and I didn't do that bad.

Anybody else go out?

My family always goes to a cabin in the summer out in Minnensota on lake independence. We only catch a few fish and toss then back there not ones you'd really want to eat. One year we did catch this huge catfish that was killing all of the other fish in the lake it was a beast.

I've been to Lake Independance a few times, but for camping at a site nearby (Baker Park)

Edit: where are you from, anyway? (if you don't mind me asking)

Yeah, I like river fishing, but fishing in a lake is a little boring to me.

True, but it's a good way to kick back and sip on a beer (or, in my case, root beer)

I live in Colorado, we go there every year to see my mom's family. My granndparents have a cabin (Technically there's two) right on the lake. (In the small part of it). I'm actually leaving to go there this Saturday.

Well, have fun then. You should take a look at the mall of america while you're there. It's about 30-45 minutes away rom the lake and really cool

Yea we go there almost every year. I want to go on the new timberland twister ride.

heh, I don't have the guts to go on any of those.

The mighty axe is the only one i don't have the guts for.

Yeah, actually I probably could go on timberland. It can't be much different than Mad Mouse at Valleyfair. Dunno if you've ever been there, but it's another good park.

Yea I've been to valleyfair only once though. It was a fun place.

heh, I was just there for a night last night (at the campgrounds) and probably saw your cabin (not that I could identify which one, but I probably saw them all at one time or another) when I was in the boat.

It's on the far side of lake independence. You can only see one the other one is covered by trees. The one you can see is just some really dark wood and a light blue dock. I just got back from it today.

well, if nothing else it's cool to thinkk that we were less than a mile apart at one point.

this is my 200th post, BTW. Not that it really matters or anything
