nice looking fish there cliff! still pretty fresh.......can't wait till the steelies follow em up.....

I had a group do a fly out one day in July, the morning was slow and in the afternoon i wanted to try something different so i found a couple reefs and put on the 5 inch leech on a jighead and drifted to the bottom of the reef from the top and every pass we hit bass after bass......it was a wild afternoon.....i caught 16 myself and i was the guide so my guests just had a blast.....lost count how many fish we hooked that afternoon....so they seem to work....caught a few walleyes on them this summer as well....so they definately work..... Hawk

fish are definately in the rivers.....just gotta know which ones.....im planning on going tomorrow...

i believe it gets a steelhead run......correct me if im wrong anyone but i think it gets one....

nice report! when do we get to see the Kesagami report? lol i would report on Halleys but didnt get enough pictures or keep a journal.....next year hopefully...cant wait to see yours tho.... Hawk

yeah i was out the other day too and picked up a few......good to see your out catching fish again Dave! take care Hawk

I always used to fish Cassel Lake and Rabbit Lake.......same species of fish and less traffic.....but stick to your gameplan....good luck Hawk

bubblegum is one of my favourites.....you can never go wrong with white either....good luck... Hawk

was fishing an eastern trib yesterday.....caught 3 and seen plenty more.....fish have already made their way uptop on that creek.....good luck

Well after this summer......and seeing what a 15-20 pound pike looks like.......I would say on average a 15 pound pike would be about 38" and a 20 lber would be about 42".......your regular every 36" will usually go about 10-12 pounds.....now I didnt see the picture and im not judging anything but it must of had to be a really thick 36" to make 15 but then again.....you read your scale none of us did so really we cant say anything.........thx for the report.....please post again......dont worry i had the same problem when i reported my trophy count half way through the summer with no pictures.....i got told if theres no pic it aint real......you just have to laugh it off....YOU were there.....YOU measured/weighed the fish.......YOU know how big it really was and that is all that is important.....who cares if some joker comes on and tells you your fish wasnt as big as you say it was.....he dont know.....he wasn't there.....till next time, Hawk

shouldn't be long now until everyone is getting along!

Halleys Camps on the English River System near Kenora......will blow any of those other places away.....it is truely unbelievable....

is there a way we can get something done about this?

well im not sure how to go about doing something like that but if someone can explain how to id be happy to get the ball rolling on this situation

Palamar is the way to go.....really strong knot and easy to learn

couldn't have said it better myself Rich! 100% in agreeance

ive fished long point my entire life and every year ive noticed a difference......too many ppl are goin out and filling their livewells with these fish and it damages the fish population.....there is no doubt in my mind that the big ones are there it is just becoming harder and harder to find these fish and if something isn't done soon we may not even have a solid bass fishery......just one mans opinion and i wish i could do something about it.....i know all i can do is release the fish i catch and hope for the best for years to come... Till then, Hawk

I went fishing down at the point the other day.....on the upside the fishing was good we caught 60 perch in the morning and 12 bass in the afternoon.....what i have noticed is that all the bass seem to be about the same size....and this is due to people keeping those 3-5 pound breeders.....i think a good idea for that area would be to have something like any fish over 18 inches must be returned to the lake.......becuz if this keeps up there wont be anymore fish there......anybody in agreeance?

they'll be there guys i promise hopefully get some footage of some northerns taking out walleyes

the English River near Minaki and Kenora....its awesome....i will have pictures for you all at the end of August

Hey guys its been a while....got a 2 week vacation. So thought I would come and let you know how its going..... To start the fishing is AMAZING unfortunately I have no pictures yet......but man is it ever fun to fight those northerns. Here is the list of trophy fish my guests have caught thus far. NORTHERN PIKE David Tucker 41" Northern Joe Duncan 40" Northern Justin Duncan 39.5" Northern Greg Happ 42" Northern WALLEYE Danner Smith 27" Walleye Dale Thompson 27.5" Walleye SMALLMOUTH BASS Danner Smith 18" Bass Fred Marchini 18.5" Bass Terry Farmer 19" Bass Terry Farmer 18" Bass Jake Burnenger 18" Bass Peter Osgood 18" Bass And numerous big fish......just about every 2 days or so a big northern cruises by a walleye hole and grabs onto fish you are reeling in.....i watched one swallow a perch whole and snap the line it was AWESOME!!! anyways guys sorry bout the no pics when i left i had no money to buy a camera but i plan on getting one for when i return in a couple weeks....so i can leave a GOOD report for you fellas.... Till then, Hawk
