Have a good trip Connie. We're taking a youngster with us too next week ,but he is only 14 yrs old.This will be his maiden trip to Canada. Hopefully the first of many.

No worries..........All will be fine.......I am headed for the Winnipeg river next week myself.When you cross the border everything is fine..The Fishing Gods will look after the little things

You will have a great time at Anglers Kingdom. I was up there last fall the end of Sept. Very cool piece of water.Kevin will put you on fish.The only problem you will have is not wanting to come back home

The camera is an HP photosmart M525. I think it was only $120.00 or so. It is very easy to use

We were on Nungesser Lake about 30 miles north of Red Lake at Anglers Kingdom.

The accomodations are very nice.Great mattresses hot water and electricity.

This really is a wonderful Lake.Much more cool structure that a guy could fish in many many years.Despite the poor moon phase we did very well.3 inch gulp minnows ,crawlers and frozen shiners all produced well.The boats were were well maintained and gassed by 7 a.m. each day I look forward to my return. That Pike came off Wolf Island by the way Connie. Kevin does indeed live to fish.and happy to share his info.This is a very reasonable trip into an exciting lake and I would recommend a visit to anyonewho has comtemplated it.

I'm pretty sure the part about not putting them back in the package is a Berkely story to keep people from reusing.We save from trip to trip and put theem bag in the container with the others. Worksgreat on all aggressive and even passive fish.

Thanks got them to photobucket..How do I get them the the post. INsert IMage? or add an attachment? What do I copy and paste? As you can tell I am new at all this

Any help would be appreciated. Been trying for a while now.It tells the file is too big to download as an attachment.even with one picture.

Well< I just got back from a week at Anglers Kingdom and it was everthing that I had hoped it would be.I'll load some pictures as soon as I can fogure out how. Weather included everything from snow and wind to movement stopping fog to 70 degree cloudless glass flat days. Typical Canadian weather. 6 of us caught roughly 1000 walleyes with 80 or so between 23 and 28 inches.We caught in the neighborhood of 100 pike with a bunch in the mid 30's and largest a fat 41 in. The people were very nice and accomodating and the lake is magnificent. Great acomadations for a remote camp.I'll try to get some more details for you when time permits.

When I am mooning,nobody is hungry LOL

Connie,If you really think it makes a difference I promise to out on the dock each eveningand put up a full moon

79 hours till we hit the road and another 16 on the road until we hit camp. Possibilty of snow flurries this weekend.My best fishing for Big Walleyes has been in the snow.Hopefully the pike won't mind either.

I would get a replacement transducer and then mount either the old unit or a new one up front.We run our front transducer on the trolling motor.It works fine and the only time you need the front one is when the trolling motor is deployed anyway. Special transducer for trolling motor mounting

Wow!! Thats a blast from the past.I remember it too.

I guess there are some things a guy takes for granted. I fish Walleyes in Wisconsin in the Winnebago river system. Walleyes and Sturgeon both run up the Fox and Wolf rivers to spawn in the spring.For two or three weeks each year they are so thick it hampers the Walleye fishing. Sturgeon are not allowed to be kept on hook and line so all fishing is catch and release,but it is nothing to hook into as many as 20 per year . Over the years we have had them up to 6 feet long and as much as 90 or 100 pounds.

My year is broken down into four seasons.

1) Getting ready to go to Canada for the Spring Fishing trip

2) Spring Fishing in Canada

3) Getting ready to go to Canada fo the Fall Fishing trip

4) Fall Fishing in Canada

I don't know if I am a true fisherman or not bu I'm pretty sure that I have my priorities straight

Cops are cops.They think differently than the rest of us.Not that it is good or bad.that is just the way it is. People that do that type of job have a different view of the way things are supposed to work and we just have to understand that.

You can (and I have) use your deep cycle battery for EMERGENCY starts.However it is hard on the battery and if used for this too many times will shorten the life of the battery.

Connie, I have always gone by the premise that if I am in Canada fishing,the moon phase is perfect.

We always love advice on new water,especially from someone who fishes it every day.We're going into camp late on Friday and Kevin said he'll have something hot and tasty for us to eat. Sounds like the perfect time to get to know each other and do some map marking over a bottle or two of good wine. We usually fish deep water lakes on our fall trips and have often had to haul the big ones out of 30 feet or better.3/4 and 1 oz jigs are usually necessary especially if the chop is substantial. How long is the trip from red lake to the landing?

Thanks for the info and the pictures. I have a group of six heading up to the "Kingdom" Sept. 14th. It's gonna be a long 4 weeks.

Speed kills

We always have several games/events going.We have a biggest Walleye/Northern/Trout contest that runs all week.$10 per man per category.One winner for each species. We usually have a $10 per man biggest Walleye on artificial contest. One day we draw for partners and have a Biomass inches by noon game.Most inches/all species.We have (South of the border) day.A morning contest concentrating on a relatively unfished part of the lake.(This forces us to explore and find new structure and fishing spots.)

there must be more than one sturgeon lake in Ontario. the one I am familiar with is at the end of the road north of Ignace
