Well...the trip to the lodge was fantastic and can't say enough good things about the place! But the fishing was REALLLLLLY hard!!! Unless you are looking for pike and the odd bass the fish at this time of year have spread deep and wide. Hot summer and stormy weather mixed days made the difference much more than I thought it would. At least it was the same for everyone there and not just me! hahaha Either way...a bunch of pike and a bunch of smiles on my kids was perfect!
