RickOnt Posted June 11, 2014 Report Posted June 11, 2014 (edited) As soon as my 2013 trip was over I was searching for a place to go in 2014.I have 2 bucket lists#1 is the "dreamers" list and has spots like Plummers and the Tree#2 is more realistic, and after reading James Smedley's article in Ontario Out of Doors Apisabigo was added to this list.So when the opportunity came up to Fish a Spot from the "List" I quickly said "Book me In"You know its gonna be a good week when the third cast produces a nice 16 incherThe cabin was great very well equipped, Propane lights that worked perfect, 2 Fridges, Indoor shower, 4 sets of single bunks, A gas and motor shed, 5 boats and 5 motors.The water system is gravity fed and there is a pump you just start up once or twice a week No priming just give it a pull.We caught fish all over and you did not need to go far This one was right from the dockPike were plentifulSome very nice Walleye alsoWe ate wellDinner for fourFish and ChipsWe had some rainBut then we had a rainbow!!Walleye were mostly caught on Jigs with a piece of worm. Best color tails were chartreuse, orange, pink and purple.Mepps #3 and #4 Black flurry also produced well.Shad Raps in bright colors cast or trolled caught there share.The big Pike were caught on Mepps #5 bucktailThe Walleye, I believe were post spawn, the males were not milking but had the remains of a dried milk sack.We never caught a fish deeper than 16'I tried Worm Harness and bottom bouncer but to my surprise they did not produceEven the bugs were minimal I bought a fancy new bug coat and never had it on once, You could even walk up the trail to the little house and sit and not get ate up!!!Once again Martin from Outpost Camps Inc was the best!!as promised the Sat phone and Generator were at the air base on our arrival.Another "Great Memory"Thanks MartinMuch AppreciatedCheersRick Edited June 11, 2014 by RickOnt

Cheers Mitch....
Tim Mills Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Some serious fish there Rick. What a great trip and report. It doesn't get more Canadian than the hockey stick transducer bracket.
Joey Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Super report Rick. Looks like a nice place and plenty of fish to be caught!
Moosebunk Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 HOLY APISABIGO!!! Looks as though it was an incredible time for ya Rick. Plenty solid fish anyways. Thanks for sharing.
SylvanOwner Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Looks like a pretty good spot. I'm banking on catching my biggest ever Walter judging from your pics. We're booked in for July 8th-12th.....can't wait!! Mind if I drop you a PM for some info?
misfish Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Nice bud. How you liking that Arrius rod? Hope it,s getting lots of use.
lew Posted June 12, 2014 Report Posted June 12, 2014 Sure looks like fun times Rick with alot of good fishing too.
RickOnt Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Posted June 12, 2014 Hey Guys and Gals It was a "fun" trip and thanks for reading Mitch We flew out of Wawa TimRm The hockey stick works the 'best' But I think I am dating myself with an aluminum Easton!!! LOL Sylvan PM anytime Bri The Arrius is the first out of the rod locker here on Simcoe But because its a one piece I do not take it on Fly ins. Pilots are OK with one piece but the 2 piece pack much easier Cheers Rick

Rod Caster Posted June 13, 2014 Report Posted June 13, 2014 Thats a nice pile of fish photos! Seems the walleye were caught quite close to shore, as would be expected this time of year
solopaddler Posted June 14, 2014 Report Posted June 14, 2014 Thanks for posting Rick, the Apisabigo camp looks outstanding! Interesting to me as it seems I may be fishing this camp in September. Cheers
Skud Posted June 14, 2014 Report Posted June 14, 2014 Very nice Rick. Great pics. Those fly in trips are addictive aren't they.
