My favourite drive-to area to fish has been my destination for over 30 years, and it keeps surprising me. In a summer where getting out on the water with a buddy was hit or miss (summer 2020), on a sunny day, with low wind, and the new phrase of “distancing” in place, Chris and I […]

Fishing trips, or weekends, or afternoons, for me are primarily about connecting with the people I’m with. Catching a trophy or finding yourself in a great bite is an added bonus that I’ll take, of course. Each summer, for about the past 30 years, I’ve headed up for a weekend of fishing with my father, […]

Having experienced multiple Fly In Fishing Trips over the past number of years, I was always wondering when it would be time to introduce my kids to the adventure. Through a series of unexpected events, it turned out that the summer of 2018 was going to be the time! My wife (Carolyn) and I, along […]

In my final post about my epic trip to Pym Island on the Attiwapiskat River, I’ll turn our attention to the incredible Walleye fishing. Many people know the Attiwapiskat as a haven for large Pike, but there are also an abundance of large Walleye to target as well. As I mentioned in my recent posts […]

If you have ever been on a remote Canadian Fishing Trip, you know that expectations for the number and size of fish can be high, and often justifiably so. Having become somewhat of a veteran of remote lake fly-in fishing trips though the last number of years, I was left wanting after our annual spring […]

Every year I count down the days until I can get out on the open water and fish for my favourite species, Walleye and Northern Pike. I have nothing against other fish, I enjoy catching Bass, Perch, Musky etc, but my greatest joy comes from the challenge of catching Walleye and the ferociousness of Pike. […]

Well 2016 is behind us, and from the perspective of spending time with family and friends on the water, and in the outdoors in general, it was a great year. The combination of sunny and dry summer, along with an unusually warm fall meant that I had more opportunities to get outside when the opportunity […]
