Start of week 2...

With roller coaster weather and the arrival of 5 new groups, things have been quite busy the past 2 days. The guests are settled in, and after a slow first day, are starting to catch some nice fish. They have also got a chance to experience the ever changing Canadian weather. On Saturday the temps soared into the mid-80's and today we will be lucky to break 65 deg. Add some heavy rain, fog and wind, and you get the idea of what Spring is like in Red Lake. But that does not stop our fishing troops from finding quality fish.

The biggest story so far comes from Dave Wiggins. Yesterday he landed 5 pike over 40 inches. Yep, I said FIVE!! He just missed the double hat-trick because he had a sixth fish that measured in at 39.5 inches. I don't remember exactly what all the sizes were, but I believe it was something like...40, 40, 41, 41.5, and 42. I will update that tonight along with some pics. Also, all of the fish were caught with out a leader, hand landed and released.  Awsome job Dave!!!!

The others in camp are also catching some quality fish as well. Cameron is our first 27 inch walleye member for 2014. He, along with his dad Brian and boat partner Frank, caught plenty of quality walleyes yesterday. Many of the fish were over 18 inches along with a few in the 24-26 inch range.
