SylvanOwner Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Doesn't look windy/wavy to me..... .....what's the problem? Great fish! Very jealous! Just hearing someone say "Lake of the Woods" has given me goosebumps since I was a kid. Saw the lake for the first time last month as I was driving to BC. "Blue lake and rocky shore. I will return once more...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnsled Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 This would be the reason to get back up there. That's an impressive haul for the trip! Good going gents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 You two caught more "fish of a thousand casts" in one trip than most in a lifetime. Your fingers must be worn to the bone with 15,000 casts or so. 2 thumbs up. This site needs a "AWESOME" button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunkerhunter Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I am sure pete will chime in but yes the hands and fingers needed a break after that trip. We have stayed at witch bay camp before. It's prob my favourite of them all so far. lots of awesome fishing close to camp as well. As far as structure goes we started the week fishing main lake structure such as rocky points, reefs and island saddles. After the craZy winds we switched gears to weedy bays with beaches. I find the type of rock your fishing makes all the difference up there. You want the chunky stuff. Nothing smooth. Or at least a combination of the two. Just firmed up my next trip on LOTW for end of October. Can't wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunkerhunter Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Sadly no big Walters this year. We were hoping sandy would have helped us find a walleye spot close to camp for the odd afternoon or evening when we wanted a break. Unfortunately no help was provided so we attempted a few spots with no luck so said screw it and kept muskie fishing haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Every time I go and enter a fish for our team someone else, usually you 2 guys, has beat me to it with a bigger fish. How can Team 5 possibly lose with you 2 on the team? Hooorahhh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomkat Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Always wanted to go there my old tackle box made it before me. I see it in your boat haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherpete Posted August 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Yes the giant Lakewoods box serves me well! Thanks again for a great deal. As Andrew mentioned, of the various lodges that we have stayed at, Witch Bay was by far the best overall experience. Anyone interested in more info on our experiences at any of the lodges please feel free to PM either of us. Here's a couple more pics that I just got back, two of my favourite shots from the trip actually! Andrew with a 42.5" and me with a 43". You can really see the shoulders on the fish up there in these two images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
