I got my BWJ issues sorted, and yes, before anyone points out the obvious, I have BWJ issues and issues with BWJ.
Here is what I will bring to Copia. I’m not interested in shipping, so unless you are in SE Minnesota or will be at Copia, don’t reserve anything. Anything remaining will be offered at the Spring Outdoor Expo in Minneapolis on Saturday, April 28.

I have some photocopies of favorites articles from the following issues. These are Free, first come...

In doing some long overdue Spring cleaning, I have assembled a box of assorted outdoors, fishing, and paddling magazines that I have subscribed to over the years. Most of them are from the '80's, 90's, and early 2000's, up to about 2005. The vast majority of them are In-Fisherman, many from back in the days when the Lindner family started and owned the brand. Others include: Fishing Facts, Minnesota Sportsman, Canoe & Kayak, and a few others. I have not tried to sort or organize them, but I will bring the box to Copia and they will be available for you to look through in the QJ meeting room. I prefer to distribute them this way.

While gear has improved greatly over the years, the tactics, tackle, and fishing strategies and destinations still remain, and if you are looking to improve your fishing for your next canoe trip, the advice in these issues is still good today.

I am NOT selling these issues, but if you value them, a donation to help defray the costs of room rental and craft beers for our QJ gatherings will be appreciated. Much of what I have learned about fishing came from studying these issues. They are FREE for the taking. I hope to see you at Copia!

Did we get an upgrade? Maybe they just really appreciate our business!

The whole Radisson thing turned out to be a red herring. It’s still a Country Inn & Suites.

We had a great time together both Friday and Saturday evenings. We had lots of tripping tales and planning going on. Our own Wally 13 conducted an impromptu fishing seminar on his slow death rig. We met four new friends who paddled the Wood River Lakes system in Alaska. They are planning another epic voyage into the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in NE Alaska. We had several first timers come and they all survived the occasion.
We welcomed back some who had missed a few years. It’s a great opportunity to put names to faces. Once again we had the best pizzas, BBQ, and brews in Madtown. We’re looking forward to our trips this year. QJERS plan some epic trips.

Thanks Mulelars! Also, thanks to OS for his coordination. It was a good Copia and I appreciate wallee13's impromptu hands-on lindy rig demonstration. Marten also did a great job in sharing a wealth of information on Atikaki with me and others. Our "guest speakers" on Wood Tikchik state park in Alaska and their canoeing experience was a treat. Looking forward to the coming soft-water paddle season. I also saw a pink flamingo somewhere or maybe I was just hallucinating?
