Hot and Dry!!

We are under an extreme fire hazard. There were many new fires in the surrounding area including 2 at the north end of Golden Arm. Almost all of the fires are from lightning strikes and many are either out or under control. It is still very scary though. We never like to have the fires be that close to camp. Anyone know how to do a rain dance?

On a happier note, the few guests who are in camp this week are still catching fish. Matt caught a bunch more pike in our bay and this evening Rich and his daughter Jenna caught a bunch of walleyes in our back bay. I also did a little fishing today. I took my mother in law and our friend Mary out fishing after dinner. Mary caught 2 lake trout out by the Islands. She hooked into the first one in about 30 seconds. I never even got my pole out of the rod holder. The second one took much longer, almost 8 minutes. She landed both of them on her light action walleye rod, quite entertaining for us to watch. We then finished the night off by catching a few nice eater size walleyes of our own. Now if only the weather would treat us as nice as the fish.
