RickOnt Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I don't have many pics as my camera died but I will add what I have and when I get the pics from my fishing partners I will add a couple My buddy has a great pic of a moose.We fished Apisabigo in 2014 and had a great trip, caught lots of Walleye with the biggest at 29"Last year we went in May 29 and with the late ice out the water was very cold. So this year we booked June 6 and it was about perfect!!!!This year AirDale is using Watson's Skyways out of Wawa for their flying. An extremely efficient company and a pleasure to fly with,We were scheduled for a 9am flight we arrived at the airbase at 8, I said to the dock lad we are a little early. He replied back your truck in here and we will get your gear weighed. We were weighed, loaded on plane and in the air at 9:20On our return flight we were to be picked up at 10 am the Otter touched down at 10:02I must add we had perfect weather for our flight days, Sunny and light windsWatsons OtterThe fishing was amazing we caught more small fish this year, as many 14 - 17 inchers as you could possibly want, but also got into some big ones.My 28 1/2 incher was the biggestMy buddy Pat got a 27" which I do not have a picture of Also a bunch from 22-25 inchesA double header Shore Lunch As for Pike Well there was an unlimited number of mid 20 inch fish, Just cast or troll the shoreline and you will be busy unhooking Pike. My fishing partner did get a thick 37 incher that was our biggest.One tactic that was lethal on the smaller Walleye was on days with blue bird skies and glass smooth water when the points and shoals that produced so well in the evening were slow We moved deeper into 32FOw and vertical jigged with a worm, It was like ice fishing for Perch there were loads of fish and you could barely get the jig to the bottom without having a bite.And a huge big thank you to Martin and Jenn of OutPostCamps.com It was a pleasure to vacation with you once againCheersRick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SylvanOwner Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Nice going Rick. That big girl is very respectable! Looks like it might've been caught in the back bay where I told you I got my big 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickOnt Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yes Mike 'anticipation' Big time After I had to cancel out of a trip in Sept due to hip surgery and four months later I had knee surgery To say I was pumped is an understatement!!! Joey Lots of quality fish It was 'fun' Julian That is a Canadian thing!! LOL But I think I am dating myself with an aluminum Easton Chris Not sure where Yet As much as I have enjoyed Apisabigo There are too many other great spots, I am in search mode right now. Sylvan That one was not caught in the back bay but my buddy got his 27 incher in there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
can u fish Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Nice looking walleyes there Rick looks like you boys had a great trip that lake was on my radar for my up and coming annual September fly in unfortunately Martin only offers a few outpost camps now where he is willing to fly two guys in Which are Abbey Lake and Anjigaming I have already fished those two lakes anyway thanks for the report and great photos.

adempsey Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Looks like you had a great trip! Have you checked out Nameigos? It's about 3x the size of Apisabigo. Never been, but curious about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Mitch Might be worth checking out Buck & Bingwood, Twin Lakes or White River Air if you haven't already booked I always thought this 2-man super light special from 7 Lakes Wilderness Camps was interesting as well [which I am too fat to do!].
