chris.brock Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 We have a chance to move our fly-in trip, out of Nakina, to the opening weekend. On my satelite photo site, I can see Long Lac is open, Nagagami, Esnagi etc are open. I would appreciate if anyone can report from a little further north. I know there was some snow up there lately. thanks Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirCranksalot Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Try contacting your outfitter. I contacted mine( 7 Lakes) today and was told that some lakes are ice free, some still frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danc Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Snow and freezing rain yesterday. Enough to close all the highways around here. I haven't been out fishing yet, but I can assure you that all lakes are open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris.brock Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Take the opening week Chris, you'll be good to go. Speaking of which where are you going this year? thanks guys with the info Solo, we were going with AMS June 18th to Caviar, just down from Teabeau on the Albany, Nancy seemed pretty doubtful that there would be enough water to get the plane into camp, soooo we are looking at Kaganagami (Kag) with AWO, the reason being, we like to try different lakes, we would probably get to this one at some point, it would be good now because being the opening week, most camps and Leuenbergers Lodge will be vacant, the river could be hot in the early season, brookies and lakers are a bonus, and it's huge, if the wind is light there's tons of water to explore any info on Kag Solo? a Nakina local once told me Kag is best in the early season with the clear, deep water, summer can make the walleye a little harder to find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennesseeGuy Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 This will be my 28th consecutive walleye opener in NW Ontario. Never have given weather a second thought. Have been delayed 28 hours one year due to a heavy snow and delayed several hours one year to get a wind shift to clear ice for a float plane landing. Don't pass it up. Book the same time slot for 2013. Take a look at going in a week early to pike fish. Stay two weeks. It works. Every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
