Good luck on the water, Wolv.  My wife and I are heading out to Long Lake in a couple hours to do some pike and walleye fishing.

Boy, getting a girl to go fishing when she doesn't otherwise?  That's a tough one.  She has to like it because if she goes just because you want her to, but doesn't really like it, it won't work.  All you can do is take her along and see if she likes it.  Show her that other women like to fish because it's fun:



For the single guys out there, I guess all you can do is look thru the dating ads in the paper and maybe you'll find one that says:
"Attractive lady looking for a man with nice boat to pull behind her Ford truck, please send picture of boat to......"

I finally got a couple days in for real fishing, last week with my daughter, this week with a bud of mine.
Strange how the eldest inthe boat both times caught the most/best fish. Alyssa and I , I caught the most, but of all of ours they were all keepers. With Alfred and I, he caught a couple northern, I caught one to small to keep, and a ton of tiny sunfish, none worth keeping.

Smallish compared to what could be caught around here.. but still fun

ChrisOlson:
24 to 30 inches on them northerns is a good size to eat.  Bigger than that and they got too much belly fat.  Smaller than that and the y-bones are too small.  My wife caught a 39 inch northern, about 25 lbs, last weekend on Long Lake.  We didn't keep it - it was a big female.
