welcome to the club -- --- the difference is that hwy 83 ---most of the boats going north are still ND. Cant say that with the boats going east and west on the eastern part of hwy 2.
I have heard this one before many times: the guys who fish three days, take 10 home and eat 5, or the residents who fish 10 weekends a year? I can say I take way more fish from my local body of water in a year than I do with a 3 day on Sak.
That is true - but next man up - right
Bottom line -- is that SAK got a stocking of 4 million bigger than a fingerling per year for multiple years --- yet when i visit - which i have to admit was only once so far this summer - the number of non-resy's in the boat ramp lot was not even recognizable. Go visit a boat ramp lot at devils lake --- i have some times this year where i am the only resident parked at the ramp. Where is DL's 4 million??? i dont care DL reproduces -- throw em in. They are cleaning 12 inchers anyway - they might as well clean a couple fingerlings.
What i cant believe -- is the number of out of staters drive forever to get here, have the big boats(80k plus)and they cleaning dinks at the cleaning station. It shows you how bad the rest of the states are.
PS with regards to the Sodaks ---- Kurt sent em up here ;:;popcorn
