Default Cold Lake Trip, looking for partner

I am looking to get back to cold lake once more this year. Ive been twice, and had an awesome trip each time. If you are familiar with my past posts, you will know that i fish this lake quite a bit. Trouble is, i dont have a reliable vehicle and cant afford the trip what so ever. I would be looking to go next weekend (23-26 ish) and staying at the dockside inn would be the cheapest and best option. If someone with a 4 wheel drive is willing and eager to pay for the hotel, i will gladly take you out to all the best spots i know and will share all my secrets with you. I am very familiar with this lake and have worked hard to find out where and what.. I just want to get back there so badly since it closes at the end of the month. Message me if you are interested, thanks so much, cheers

Spencer
