Good food there and the new owners have owned it now for about three years. Their accomidations are on the smaller side from what my clients have told me but clean. The Boat launch is on the shallow side so depending on the water depths you may want to launch @ Lauderdale Marina at the South end of the main lake. They do NOT let you drive your boat on the trailer there. Or @ Sophers Landing Marina at the North end of the lake in McLeans Bay. John and Pat are the owners there. Good launch $10. Really nice people as long as you dont make a mess and use Ramp Etiquette. Oh and the fishing there is great (if you know where to go) LOL.

Check out the Motors. The Yahama's are getting 4X the hours til rebuild. The new Mercs are getting 650 to 800 hrs and the Yahama's are getting 3000 hrs. You do the math. If you can afford the upgrade and it is an upgrade for a reason. I own an Alumacraft Trophy 17' and I love my boat. It is getting a little old now so I will be in the market for a new Boat in the next year @ the most and it will come down to Motor and fishability. I have friends with every dif type of boat you can imagine and they all love their own boats (except my wife's uncle's Legend) he is not so happy LOL. Good luck and happy Boat Hunting

It was a weekend of Personal Bests. We didn't get alot of fish but man were they Quality. We first went out with Aaron in the Pro V trolling the Reach for some Feb soft water eyes or should I say Eye LOL. We weathered some crapy conditions and the ice had moved into the area that Aaron had wanted to fish We tried without any luck to Jig but it was a little difficult Then another snow squall But well worth it. Fraser got his new PB. 11 or 12lb EYE. Oh and Aaron had to hand balm it into the boat cuz someone didn't have a NET in his boat LOL. Good times with some good friends and as usual I was take'n to Fishing School Again by Aaron ( AKA No Net). Then on Monday Dean and I hit the Niagara for some Stealies and Browns. As usual this year we had 1'-1.5' of Vis @ best thanks to the Iceless Erie and that Great SW wind that we all love on the Niagara. It didn't work out the way we had planed BUT !!!!!!! Dean landed a Tank on 15 lb Abrazex fluoro and a Skunk Kwiky. And as we all can see she was released alive and very well. We had our net in the boat but it was the wrong size and didn't do us any good LOL. "You gotta capitalize on those opp's" Aaron LOL. I can't wait to see what this weekend will bring.
