Burtess Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Spent last week up at Beaverland Camp in Marten River with a great bunch of guys. All 14 of us were accommodated in cabin #14 which has 4 bedrooms with two sets of bunks in each. It was my first time up with this bunch (some have been coming up together for decades) and I am proud to say I was voted back in for next year! Fishing was decent, with the most / largest fish coming from Bruce Lake (access to McPhee was restricted due to a large beaver dam). Lots of smaller walleye just under the slot (16.9 - 23.6") made for a couple of awesome fish frys. Most of the smaller ones came on a whole nightcrawler while drifting. The large ones on plastic (love those Powerbait Rippletails in white!!) Caught quite a few pike on soft swimbaits too, nothing too big but good for the fish fry. Bass opened up on the last fishing day so we got into a few of them too. Here are some pics: Spotted some young moose crossing Bruce Lake, man can they ever move: One just at top end of the slot: Just over the slot at 24 1/4" : A respectable bass from Saturday: Burt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
