I stayed there about 15 years ago when it was owned by the Currie family. Great location and fishing. The week there was the beginning to discovering the area for myself about a dozen times since.

 

In front of the lodge is some REAL deep water with Rainbows & lakers, Smallmouth just about everywhere there is a shoal. Northerns in the weedy bays.

 

In many ways the potential up there is untapped. Good Luck!

I was there last September. Had a great time, I took my own boat and did not use a guide. The two guides that were there are pretty good guys. They took out a few people for pike fishing and did very well. I did ask them for some general ideas for fishing spots they gave me some very vague locations like over there around the bend. I can't blame them as that is their livelyhood. I did manage to find fish pretty easily and did hook up with some trout and smallies. Overall nice lodge great food ( the owner is a chef) and very good fishing. I do plan to go back there, but not sure if I will go in the spring or the fall.

 

Hope you get the job, let me know how you do!
