Spring 2026 and it was time for the annual fly-in trip with Chris. After a great fall at Sunshine Lake, we were both eager to get on with our season of fresh water fishing. This spring we’d be at Harrogate through Leuenbergers. This was also the plan for Spring 2025, but I had open heart […]

It was summer 2019 when I was at Brace Lake Outfitters for my second time, and having another amazing trip. I was in the main lodge chatting with owner Kyle Poleski when he said he had something he wanted to show me. It was the location of an outpost camp he had just acquired on […]
