Testimonial Email

Hi Folks,

Here's a testimonial email I received this morning regarding Adam's trip here this week:

Just got back from Winifred Lake Lodge (6th time). Lots of fish this year and more biggens than usual. Last year we went and only managed to land 2 over 100cm while still catching tons of 8-12lb fish. This year the numbers were awesome! On the last day one boat in our group with 2 guys had landed 110 fish by our 6pm supper. That included them coming in for lunch at noon and heading back out at 1pm! More to the point I used my fly rod a fair amount so my numbers were less (only 38 on my last day). But I tell ya! Catching two 12lb and one 15 lb+ 40" on the fly was awesome! My 9wt was just the ticket. Using a sink tip line and a big red/white streamer with the "toothy critter" 15lb leader with stainless steel tip.

The pic is of the 15 lb 40" . Don't worry about my handling skills. I was under strict orders from my mother in law to bring home a big jack and this is the one.

Carol and her crew run an awesome lodge with a lake that is just teaming with trophy pike and walleye. Out of the estimated 1000 fish caught by our 15 man group in 3 days we had 22 that were over 100 cm, only two were not released. My 15lb and another 22lb jack made it to the dinner table to be enjoyed by many.

Tight lines,

Adam Flight

June Fishing

Hi Everyone,

Okay, Okay! We had more than our fair share of rain and wind for June 2013! Looks like the worst is over with, at least for now.

The road is rough but since we've had a week or so of dry weather, it's hardened up nicely. There are still a couple of wet spots so take your time through them...they have a hard bottom. All in all, we fared better than the folks in Fort McMurray and more recently Canmore and Calgary. Our thoughts are with you all. Keep safe folks!

Smiles were plentiful for the guys in the Pike Group that visited us recently, especially for Sean and his 24 lb northern. What a brut!


































 A beautiful Walleye!




 And another!






















And even another!














Brian Allan's group also put another trip in the history books recently.

I like to call this pic, "The long and the short of it".














 But then again, there's always redemption for Ben...














 another righteous pike for Brian...














and a great looking hog for Rylan as well. Way to go guys!
