Bell/Sympatico is having server problems - email in some areas is down. I'm in 819 and the problem started around 10:00 AM yesterday and is still down for sending - receiving is OK.

Five years is too long Roy - take a break and come on up. Tipupesox, I've had the pleasure of fishing out of most of the outfitters on the Gouin and can say that while each area has its own characteristics the fishing is GREAT. Nemio is special because of the location -

Here's a little more detail. The trip costs break down as follows. 6 days accommodation & food = $550 6 days shared boat rental = $120 Gasoline - travel costs = $100 (approx) (from Ottawa - Gatineau area) Gasoline - boat = $ 70 (approx) License & Gouin fees = $ 100 (approx) Personal items such as booze etc are your responsibility. We will be using either 16' Princecraft Starfish - 15 hsp or 16' Legend Wide Body - 20 hsp

A couple of teaser pics: Ronnie lets me hold his 32 1/2 incher last week - a 12 lb walleye is a treat to have a handle on. Me running the river to get out into big bay for some late summer action - it's a gorgeous place. A shore lunch from a couple of years ago - beautiful beaches everywhere. August is a great time - the fish are at their summer peak and a variety of tactics can be employed. You will not only have an enjoyable holiday but you will also gain valuable knowledge in walleye techniques.

Heading up to the Gouin Reservoir Aug 18th - 24th. A six day adventure on one of the best walleye spots in North America. I've arranged some prizing and there will be tons of info sharing over the six days. Here's the lodge location This is my 20th year on the reservoir and the fishing is great. If you have an interest in joining the group send me a PM and I'll forward the details. Bill

Got into this lake last week with a group and spent a thoughoughly enjoyable 3 days. Lake Sasseginaga is located in the Kipawa region of Quebec about a three hour drive from North Bay and is advertised as Quebec Wilderness fishing. This body of water is a mass of islands and a structure heaven holding walleye, Northerns and Lake Trout. The camp itself is on an island in the north central section of the lake. The spawn was just over and the flats were holding males anywhere from 6 - 13 feet. Lindy rigging a crawler was the technique which really surprised me in that other lakes I've fished within the area in the past were an absolute leech bite. We did take a few fish on Shad Raps and bottom bouncing harnesses but the consistant bite was drifting lindy rigs as previously mentioned. The outfitter runs a neat operation, cabins are recently renovated, comfortable and clean. His fleet of boats are servicable and are powered with 10 - 20 hsp motors. http://www.bushcountrycamp.com This operation sits within the Kipawa Zec and conforms to their rule of a 14" minimum and the operator Art Southern has set a 24" limit on keeper walleye. His management of the resource presents a great opportunity for monster walleye - best fish last season came in at 16 lbs and the best laker was 26 - forgot to ask about the northern but I'm sure they are healthy too. We didn't get into any dukers with a 19" walleye being the norm but the guys from Michigan in the cabin next to us claimed a 27"er and I heard a story about a 32"er being caught by a group of bear hunters who took advantage of an early morning bite. Both of those fish are still swimming and waiting for the next lucky angler. My visit was too short and I'm looking forward to returning for another shot at the big ladies.

Have 3 trips planned so far. May 24th to Bush Country Camp on Sasseginaga, should be interesting we are guiding a couple of blind fellows who are quite a pair of adventurers - one guy from England http://www.mileshilton-barber.com/ and a fellow Canadian http:www.blindfishingboat.com Looking forward to this one Then in early August to Club Trout Lake to fish their remote location for a week followed by my regular school at Nemio on the 14th. Now to get something going for June & July.

Another amazing journey - - - thanks bunk!!
