A 40 inch Northern on one hook and a Finger on the other!

The Scholtes and Hogan Party came out of The River today and had a blast. There was 2 Dan's in the group and they caught the biggest Northern. Dan S. caught a 38 inch Northern and Dan D. caught a Hefty 40 incher!! The only problem was that he also got hooked in the process! This was the second day of their trip and they figured they would take care of it themselves....and did! Apperently Dan D. did not care for his friends bedside manor but they pushed the hook through, cut it off and pulled it out. Nothing different than they would do at the hospital. The important part was that they did not wreck his Antique Wooden Pikey. Here he is, co-piloting his way back to Red Lake.

The Big Lake on Cherrington!!!

We are still busy with fishermen and with the nice weather time seems to be flying by. All things around the camps are running smoothly and fishing is nothing short of Fantastic!

Cherrington had some Old Northern Minnesota hockey players fishing there this week, the Hoene Brothers and "Cons" as well as a couple new guys. I have known these guys for a long time and they have fished many of our lakes over the years and this year Kevin summed it up in one sentence "When it takes 5 minutes to catch a fish, that's pretty boring." He said that it was by far the best fishing he has ever seen. The fishing out on the Big Lake couldn't have been any better. When the fish are on the bite out there, it is a lot of fun! They also caught a 43 inch Northern that had a walleye already in its mouth.

Daniels saw Mike S. for the second time in three weeks! They had awesome weather and caught tons of fish. Mike, who organizes the group, has spent countless hours fishing the Cobham had the fish of the trip, a Big 27 inch Walleye!

Vee Lake had 2 couples from Missouri fishing in the sun for the past week. The Girls out fished the Boys, I would not have expected anything less from these easy going people. Kevin did have the Largest Northren though, a nice 38 incher. They were very impressed with the walleye fishing on all corners of the lake.
