found some pics from a few weeks ago.

Sorry I missed these. I must have dropped these into the wrong folder.
Matt and Rob had quite the week earlier this year, as they managed to boat 8 (yep eight) pike over 40 inches.
Matt (aka Mr. 40) landed 7 of the 8, but Rob walked away with big fish honors. His massive pike measured 43.5 inches!! They also caught numerous pike in the 30-39inch range as well as a few lunker sized walleyes. And lets not forget...plenty of eater size walleyes for shore lunch.
Way to go boys, that is one heck of a week!!





43.5 inch pike!!!

More Pics...

After talking with and saying goodbye to many of the groups tonight my hunch was confirmed, it was a great week of fishing! Here are a few more pics to prove it.  The Christopherson group estimates they boated over 1000 fish between the 7 of them. They also wanted to say 'Hi' to Tony C.
We all hope your dog is doing better and we sure missed seeing you up here. Don't worry, there will be plenty of big fish for you next year...unless you want to squeeze in a late season trip?













The fishermen/women are faster than me!

With another full week of veteran fishermen, it is no surprise that we saw a lot of nice fish this week. We saw big sizes as well as big numbers of fish of every species. I consistently heard guys catching 30-50 walleyes per day. I believe a couple of boats even surpassed the 100 mark. The only bad part is that I have a hard time keeping up with the photos and blog. Here is a quick summary of the fish that made our fish wall along with a few pics that were submitted already. I hope to get some more updates soon.
