Calender Don Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I haven't been there lately for ice fishing, but the last time I was there the hut where big and very clean inside and the fishing was good too. I go there every spring and fall I love it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splitshot Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I was there 4yrs ago, they were great but, put no effort into the hut placement. Right out in front the lodge, 40yrds off shore. Needless to say we didn't catch anything from friday to sunday. Hopefully things have changed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodsman Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I was there 4yrs ago, they were great but, put no effort into the hut placement. Right out in front the lodge, 40yrds off shore. Needless to say we didn't catch anything from friday to sunday. Hopefully things have changed! New owners in the last couple of years. They are still suffering from the previous owners reputation. I have heard good reports on the new owners although I have not personally dealt with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakej Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Thank you for the report Woodsman... I was getting a little concerned about the trip. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish4Eyes Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 The old crook owners charged me 60$ to use their truck to put my boat in the water and pull it out, as my jetta could not handle the steep slope of the launch . As for fishing, I only fished there in the spring, with mild success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunkerhunter Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 i havent fished up at glen echo but i did buy my outboard from them this past summer and my limited dealings with the owner were quite good. he was friendly, informative and pretty reasonable. he showed me around the camp and even let me test out the boats , he definetely didnt seem like a dick or a crook. again i havent fished there, just did some business with the guy.

tb4me Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 You will catch fish! we went for a weekend last year.Huts are spotless well put together. The keep the outhouse on the ice heated and light all night long.I have had nothing but good experiences with them. The one sat aft we were there we werent getting any hits at all. We asked him to drill us some holes outside the hut. He did one better. He moved us to his personal hut for the afternoon..Caught a ton of fish..He will actually come in and sit n have a beer with ya's.. Even have tv.s so you wont miss the Leafs game...LOL So in short they do a good service and do an exellent job at making sure you want to come back..Have fun and say hi from Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbles Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 was there in the summer once a long time ago, nice boats! I have always heard they have issues with the placement of their huts, on spot, close to shore, never moves them.... not first hand experience though.

Woodsman Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Bubbles if you would have taken time to read the previous replies you may have noticed there is new owners. They already have enough of a problem living down the previous owners deeds without more old misdeeds being placed on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb4me Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Great report tb4me. Thanks Hey no problem..Thier Honest people, They deserve a good report..The owners are great at what they do!..I was very impressed. They even let us book the ice hut in the spring (may 24 weekend) on land, rented a boat..They have excellent boat packages available at great rates in the boating season..
