Wright County Roll Call

[thunder]

How many Wright County “locals” do we have here on LSF??? I have met and fished the area with quite a few people that I met here on LSF. Made several new fishin buddies ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

We really have some great fishing lakes that you don’t have to drive a couple hours to get to. I would like to see the “Wright County” forum be one of the best this ice season on LSF for information on ice conditions and fishing reports.

Let’s put together a “locals list” in this post so we can easily see where people are from and where they fish. Putting it together with the goal of meeting new fishing buddies and to make it easier to check for ice conditions on different lakes.

Where is everyone from and do you have a primary area of the county you fish often?

“Outsiders” are welcome as I know we have alot of metro people that come out our way to fish ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

I will keep the list below

From Howard Lake and fish mostly Wright County along with Mille Lacs trips mixed in.
I figure I better post this being you don’t recognize me any more Thunder. ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

[thunder]

Haha..

Next time you pass me on the road you may get a donut on the side door…

but thats just “real racin”

[bdlucas]

I am planning on hittin Buffalo in the next two weeks. I just moved to Buffalo on the North Side of town back in september. I have heard that the crappie fishing is fabulous at early ice. Hopefully that is true.

[Ret-ro]

Thunder- you can put me down. I think you know where I’m from.

I’m a local from St. Michael… I fish a ton in the winter but I have to admit, most of it is Mille Lacs and north… Planning on fishing around here more this winter though… I do a fair amount on Buffalo, west side Clearwater, Ceder, Pelican and a few other small lakes…..

[AdamJ]

I am from Buffalo as you can see. I also fish Buffalo alot during early ice. I then tend to move efforts towards Pulaski as the season progresses. I am with others and tend to travel as much as the wife will let me to other areas. Park Rapids area, Crosslake area and of course; “The Pond”. I am sure fishing will start by the end of the weekend if the wind would just die down a bit. See ya on the hard water! ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

[thunder]

Bigtime if you fish pelican keep us updated. When that lakes turns on it can be great for panfish.

Looks like we all like to fish “the Pond” too ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

[thunder]

Any Annandale area guys? Someone live on Clearwater,Pleasant or Cedar?

Any Maple lake guys out there? ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

C’mon Thunder, You and I both know that real racecars don’t have doors!!

[davod]

I live in Wright county, My wife and I love to fish, we have been looking at lakes closer to home these days. We used to spend a lot of time up on Cass Lake, excellent lake for just about everything. long drive though from where we live.
We have started looking at the Cokato area.
I have seen comments on a few lakes in the cokato area on this site.
What can anyone tell me about Cokato lake during hard water?

[fishnutbob]

davod,

Welcome to LSF, lots of good Lakes out by Cokato, Summer you can fish smallies, look at the DNR website and Lakefinder it will give you lots of info, also thunder knows that area Im sure he will add something. Good Luck

Thanks fishnutbob,

This is a good forum it only took minutes to get a response.

I have checked out the DNR’s website, I noticed the data for Cokato lake was old, 1998 if I remember right.

A buddy and I spent a couple hours doing a quick exploration by boat last weekend.

We were icebreaking thin ice through the center, I figure we were probably close to the last to fish by boat this year.

We had a couple young fisherman with us that were having a blast. I have to admit we were having a good time too.

We marked fish in the deep water but did not get any bites.

I didn’t have the sinkers I needed to get to the bottom, Looks like a trip to cabella’s is in order…
I borrowed a sinker from one of the boy’s.

This was my first time on Cokato lake, I am wondering what people who have fished this lake can let me know.

[thunder]

Cokato can be very good. Plenty of structure to fish and some deep flats.

Smallies in the summer are fun. Crappies and walleyes on the Hardwater!!
Also has some nice Slimers. .

Other good lakes in the Cokato area are
Collinwood
Washington
Brooks
Stella
Big Swan

Let me know when you want to go out. I also have some younger fisherman that like to come with ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />

Almost forgot WELCOME TO LSF Davod!!!
