I’ve done several reviews in the past on various Mystery Tackle Box orders I have received and they were fun. Some I purchased, some were given to me as gifts from people who knew I loved to fish. I did stop however, because most of the tackle is really designed for Bass Anglers, and that’s […]

Recently I had the pleasure of spending 3 days at Ellen Island Camp on Lady Evelyn Lake. This lake has 5 outfitters on it, and has been on my list as a potential destination for quite some time. I was further encouraged, and specifically to contact Ellen Island Camp, by Canadian Fishing Guide Mike Borger. […]

This time next week Carolyn and I will be wrapping up our first of three days at Ellen Island Camp on Lady Evelyn Lake, hopefully already talking about our amazing catches.

After 3 years of outpost fishing trips, we decided that a bit of electricity and indoor plumbing would be a nice treat. As is […]

When I started fishing as a young boy, it meant heading to the local creek or small pond fishing for trout, and usually catching suckers or chub. When I got into my late teens I was included in the annual Father and Son Fishing Trip. At the time I was 17, which was old enough […]

I’ve updated this report on my trip to Hilmer Lake, with Hearst Air in 2014. I realized that my images did not show, so where goes. I did post my Shore Lunch video earlier, but it’s time to give the review! There were six of us on this trip, 4 who had been there before, […]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything, mostly because I haven’t been on the water in a long time! I was out in November, but I just had a terrible outing, nothing worth putting on the screen, so this is my first time to post anything meaningful. I’m in the midst of a job […]

I recently went on my annual Father and Son fishing trip to Bayfield Lodge, in the Bayfield Inlet of Pointe Au Baril, in the Georgian Bay Region. We’ve been going to this same lodge for over 20 years, and enjoy the combination of friendship, scenery, and hopefully a few fish along the way. This photo […]
