We is back.

 

All I can say is "WOW"!!!!!!

Left late on Friday night to avoid the traffic for our 9 hour drive. Did you know that lots of the Tim's, up north, close over night?? We arrive in town with a glass bay and clouds of blackflies and skeeters. A short hop across the bay on the barge and we are there at Ritchies End of Trail.

Once there, its into a boat to check the nearby shoreline.

Not a lot to show in the first day but, Bisco has some 600+ km's of shoreline to drift.

As predicted a cold front, with rain, moved in Saturday night. We woke up to a wet dreary morning for our first full day. We had booked local guide, Ed Gagnon, for a day of scouting for walleye. Ed was the same fellow who had guided the Fish'nCanada crew for a series of shows a few years back.

As I said, a cold front had blown in and conditions were tough. It was a very soft bite, when we had a bite, but Ed did have us on walleye on almost every location.

At least we know the fish were hitting our bucktails

And of course, Ed puts on a great shore lunch.

Despite the tough bite, we still had a decent number of walleye, with enough for supper and brekkie.

In the evening we went out to wash some more lures and catch a few more fish.

First a dock pike
