Pics of our frequently used launches with very little open water.
We are in the middle of a big snow event that should be finished by Tuesday. Up to 30"!?!

Lots of 9 to 11" perch since early January, otherwise, working on tackle and boat preparation. April 1 is our official starting date if we have open water.

Reminders:
4.5 hr and 6 hr trips priced same as 2025;
Perch fishing trips available Oct/Nov.

Our hardwater issues persist!

Enjoy these recent pics of the Elk Chain and both Bays.

We are about six weeks from starting the 2026 season (if we can find some open water).

No price increase this year for the 4.5 hour and 6 hour trips.

Wishing all of you a prosperous and healthy 2026!

Three months until we are back in business and these openwater photos will help me get through the hardwater times.

Thanks to all for a successful 2025--a memorable year.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends.

I am very thankful for many things especially those I've met along my basketball and fishing journey.

I've been on the water twice as much this fall as compared to previous years. The main reason is the loss of my birddogs (someday I'll be able to talk about them). Thank goodness I have my fall fishing to keep me occupied.

I'm sure the woodcock and grouse are thankful that I'm fishing and not hunting. Not so thankful are the perch, smallmouth and walleye...

Hug your pets often...

And enjoy your holiday.

Veterans, enjoy your day and THANK YOU for your service.

The 2025 year is winding down. We are splitting our time between smallies on the big lake and perch on the inland lakes.

As with most falls the weather has been all over the place. We did have a full week of being kept off our favorite area due to dangerous winds. And we got wet several days with the lake effect rains.

Thanks to all for making this a record year and I will post again when we shut down for the year.

Be safe my friends. ... See MoreSee Less
