Took a trip to North Dakota to visit family a couple of weeks ago. Carried my kayak intending to fish but much of the time I was there the wind was blowing 20 - 30 mph from the west with 40 and 50 mile gusts so I stayed off the water. One of the last days of my trip, the cold front finally arrived and though it was a blue bird sky and 48 degrees, I hit the water. This particular lake has bream, yellow perch, crappie, SMB, LMB, walleye and northern pike, so I expected to catch something. Wish I could show some fish pictures but I only had 3 hits in 6 hours on the water and none were even partially hooked. I did manage to disturb a small flock of Freshwater Pelicans and capture their flight on film. [video=youtube_share;NFkqBr-LECQ]http://youtu.be/NFkqBr-LECQ[/video]
These birds were at least 4 ft long with 6 or 7 ft wing spans.
As a side note, you know you're in North Dakota when the local bar has Sauerkraut Pizza on the menu
