Boats are optional

Yes, this is real people!  Do not try this at home, I am a trained professional.  Ok maybe not; maybe just a bit nuts.  Since I sold my 2010 Ranger and my new 2011 has yet to arrive I am boat-less and wanting to fish.

Yesterday I was able to get on the Mississippi River to do some open water walleye fishing with fishing friends Travis Frank and Matt Hennen.  

Thanks to Travis we did have a boat but I opted for the "ice fishing" version of open water walleye fishing.  Not certain I could guide from this thing but was fun to ride down the river in search of the "swine" walleye we were after.  

This time of year on the mighty Mississippi River is magical.  Not only did we catch walleyes, we also managed a few nice "rough" fish.  We caught all our fish fishing a 1/2 oz jig tipped with a minnow.  

This was one of the few nice suck-ERRRRR's I caught.

I will be getting back after it before the river muddies up and will post more pics and videos soon.  Fish on!
