So, you can make reservations a max of 5 months ahead of your entry date. My daughter and I are going in on Sarah in early June so I figured I'd better get on it.

Now I had some trouble on the website. After pressing the "Reserve" button, I would NOT get the shopping cart. In fact, the shopping cart would be empty, so I couldn't check out. But!! after doing this, the EP was then shown as not available, as IF I had reserved the last remaining spot.

I tried it using firefox and internet explorer. I called for a reservation and they couldn't do it either, as it appeared full up (as a result of MY attempts). It resets about every 15 minutes if you don't go through with the process. So I waited a bit and went back to the site on a different computer and it had Google Chrome on it, and was successful. But I was sweating there for a minute!

I'm not sure if those limited entry sites like Sarah fill up quickly or not. I'm glad I got a spot, because I really had my heart set on the dates and the trip I had planned. I wanted a relatively easygoing trip to enjoy, and try to fish a little more. We are headed north up to Conmee and William and looping back to Prairie Portage.
