Newest post is up I have always loved road trips - mainly because thats what we did as kids We have did all the typical ones - Myrtle Beach, Florida, Cottages etc and some not so typical ones Anyway - cover a few of my favorites here https://www.northernjacks.com/post/the-road-less-traveled

We left Toronto Friday night just after 9pm and 12 hours later we reached our destination of Lower Twin Lakes Lodge, Nakina. Day 1: Walleye Lots of fish caught in the 15"-19" range. We got our 4 man limit. Fish fry tor lunch. Day 2: More walleye and a whitefish We tried trolling for pike but no takers so we went back for some more walleye. I also caught my first whitefish of the trip. Day 3: Brookies Today we woke up to frost and fog. Our goal today was to get into some brook trout at a local stocked pond. We only got into a few but I caught my first brookie. Day 4: More Brookies Today we went out again for more brookies with the owner John and he guided us. It was a huge difference between yesterday and today. I must've caught over 20+ brookies, all on lures, spinners and spoons. I wish I took pics of the bigger ones but it was hard to stop to take a pic when the fishing was hot. Day 5: Exploring near by lakes Today was calling for rain so we decided to go exploring. We drove around side roads to look for bush chickens but they were scarce. Google maps lead us to a small lake with some shore line access. My goal for this lake was to cover water and look for my first pike. Fish on my second cast, it started to peel drag and I could feel the head shakes. When I got it closer, I can see it was a laker. My buddy also caught a whitefish after. Day 5-7 Was pretty much all same and I barely took any pictures. Here's what I managed.. The morning we had to leave for Toronto was a snow day I wish I could've explored all the surrounding lakes but time felt like it was going by fast. I'm hoping I can make this trip again next year. Lower Twin Lakes Lodge made us feel at home and I would recommend this place to anyone.

I'm going to Lower Twin Lakes Lodge Nakina at the end of the month for a week. They're known for walleye, pike and brook trout. Any chance anyone fished it before? I'm pumped for this trip. I got one week to do my research.

I haven't posted much on this site for over a year - to be honest mainly because I have fished very little until our most recent trip Our group decided to venture out of the Algoma region this time around and head further north to Nakina Ontario We used Ogoki Lake Outfitters run by John and Gloria Ritch http://www.ogokilakeoutfitters.com/ What a choice - we had by far our best trip ever for fishing and the lake and its surrounding beauty was just awesome I did a much lengthier report here and for whatever reason I have not been able to copy and paste and keep the formatting or the pictures https://www.canadafishingguide.net/forum-2/member-trip-reports-1/go-northwest-young-men-a-week-ogoki-lake/ For those who don't want to flip: We had some epic weather roll in, caught over 500 fish for the week and really had a great time If you are ever looking I would definitely endorse both Ogoki Lake and Ogoki Lake Outfitters A few pictures below Cheers Gordy
