Lake Lida 2006

Pelican Rapids, Minnesota
August 26 - September 1, 2006

Seven made it this year after several last minute cancellations. We never got around to taking a group photo, but everyone is represented here.

The weather was good again this year, and the fishing was very good with lots of fish caught. We went into the catch and release mode on the second day as we already had enough for the fish fry. Gary Clark won the big fish pot with a 3½ pound smallmouth.
