Well it seems as though it's becoming a bit of a tradition  .
Being from Ontario it's a haul to get there, otherwise I don't think I'd fish anywhere else.
You guys that live there have got it made!
Anyhow, on April 11/12 we just crushed 'em! Lots of fish and a lot of laughs...
All fish caught floatfishing. Had to bump up to an 8/9 weight spey conversion to handle the fish in such big water, but we got 'er done!
Had it in mind to head a bit further north on Saturday, but reports of high blown conditions ended our trip early.
Ahh well, there's always next year
Here's a few images from our trip:
'Till next year boys (or maybe November if I can swing it ).
Cheers, Mike |

Looks like ya just got lucky. Maybe it was your guide..........
Anyways they aint gone if that's what you are wondering I think there buddies missed them out in the lake and came to join em. Oh well I hope you don't tell too many boys from ONT or you guys will be heading west instead of south.
Hope the trip home went well and the wife was happy to see ya.
Well gotta tie some more eggs later.
Hey by the way do you have a pencil lead mine just ran out. |
