DRIFTER_016 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 Those Caravan's are nice planes. We used them up @ the lodge on Bear on turnover days to shuttle guests to the main lodge. One year there was a group that came up to the main lodge with their own Caravan on floats. The inside was all spiffy with leather etc. The flew out to different areas of the lake each day and had a pair of inflatables with outboards. Would love to be able to do that.
Whopper Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 Well done Solo I've done the Caravans twice, nice rides. First time took off on a regular runway and landed on the water which was a first for me
corvette1 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 awesome report mike cool pictures and video
Mike P Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 Looks like a good time by all and some great fishing.
Jds63 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 As always fantastic story telling and trip report, Mike, that shore lunch looked perfect .
Krisco Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 Mike, thanks for putting that together, great report as usually. You covered all bases from flight in, accommodations and of course the important part, the fishing, body of water and how you attack a new body of water, all great stuff for the rest of us who may in fact add that camp to our wish list. Speaking of Watson's, does anybody know if they purchased Everson's camp on Kaby? I know Rich Everson has been trying to sell it for years. Thanks

Thanks As far as I can tell they purchased the Everson Camp. It's now called Watson's Windy Point Lodge. At least, I assume it was a member of the same Watson family that bought it.

Joey Posted January 6, 2015 Report Posted January 6, 2015 Wow, excellent report bud. Loved the pics and vids.
AdamS Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 I don't know how I missed this post but I'm glad I saw it and had a chance to read and watch the videos. Truly an amazing experience.
can u fish Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 As usual another stellar report Mike great photos and video I will tell you one thing you sure lucked out on the weather my brother and I flew into Anjigaming lake the week before and the weather was brutal we still had a great trip though. Cheers Mitch
solopaddler Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Once again thanks for all the positive comments guys, very glad everyone enjoyed. It's a little different for me posting a trip report in the winter. It wasn't planned this way but it's not a bad idea I think. Helps ward off the winter blahs. As usual another stellar report Mike great photos and video I will tell you one thing you sure lucked out on the weather my brother and I flew into Anjigaming lake the week before and the weather was brutal we still had a great trip though. Cheers Mitch You're the second person in this thread who's said that. I also know for a fact the weather turned nasty right after we left. If you believe in fish gods they were smiling on us this trip LOL! Edited January 7, 2015 by Mike Borger
GRINGO LOCO Posted January 9, 2015 Report Posted January 9, 2015 Mike: How would you compare Abisabigo to Whitewater for walleyes. I recognize that Whitewater is many times bigger and better for big northerns. I fish Smoothrock (same area as Whitewater) a lot and 100 walleye days are not out of the question. I would like to find excellent walleye fishing around Wawa or White River as it would reduce my mileage about 400 miles.
