James Ready available in Limited amounts!!!

James Ready is sold out in cans in Red Lake at the moment. I would advise anyone coming up to have an alternate in mind. I would suggest Lucky Lager as a close second in flavor and is the same price. The next order will be in soon but just letting anyone interested know whats up.

Bait

We have found a different supplier for leeches this summer and want to let you know that we need your order into us at least 2 weeks before your trip. Call or email Rena for pricing on leeches, crawlers and frozen minnows. They are cheaper too which is good.

I did not have to leave until 7:30 am this morning and glad for the late departure. It was foggy and then a frost came late. It would have been a late departure if we had a 5 am flight but the timing was perfect today it was good to go... right on time.



With a nice tail wind we were at Vee Lake in 50 mins.

Very recent Pics!

Some of our guests who just came out of the Bush decided to share some of their pictures with us. Keep an eye out here for the link to the whole albums from recent trips.

This is Tom T. from the Davis Party who made the trip up to Cherrington. A nice 40 inch Northern. They said the fishing was awesome. Some of the Veterans of the group stated that the fishing was possibly the best they had ever had on the lake. One Fisherman had 2-36 inch northerns and a 40 inch Northern in addition to numerous fish. They were all Very Happy when I got their this morning by 6:30am.

Here are a couple of pics from the Seal Party who stay at Loree Lake every spring for a week. Thanks to Mike C. for the pictures. A long time guest whom we had not seen in a few years, it was great to host him once again.

Here are a few pics from their trip.



Waiting on the dock, waiting for Me. I am not late very often... In fact most people are ready early, if the winds are favorable sometimes I am. Like no other place, the silence of the North definately gives you time to think.

It doesn't matter what lake you go to.... the fishing is very good.

The weather has been excellent lately and the fishing has been as good as you can ask for. The walleyes were a little scattered on the flat calm days but no problems catching, just had to keep moving.

I am sitting in the office this morning waiting for some fog to lift so I figured I would give an update on the fishing at Amik Outposts.

This past week was another good one. It was cold and rainy on Sunday when I dropped off the Collins Family at Vee lake but it did not slow them down any. They produced 3 Trophy Northerns measuring at 42 inches and had dozens over 38 inches. They were quite happy when I picked them up. I hope to recieve some pics soon.

Shearstone lake fishing was excellent as well this past week. Denny Way and his crew caught tons of fish and some nice big ones! The largest Northern was 38 inches and the Largest Walleye, the largest so far was a 27 inch fat one.

Loree lake had its usual visitors from Il. and Wi., the Hansens and Seals. Normally they catch lots of Northerns over 40 inches but this season the biggest they caught was 38 inches. The weather made up for the size this year. These guys looked recharged and had excellent tans. As usual they did not want to go home.

The weather is starting to lift so I have to get moving and move these fishermen in and out of the bush all day.

Fishing is Normal..... Which is Awesome!!!!

I brought the groups out yesterday from Vee and the Cobhams. The news is good. Quite good in fact. A 44.5 inch northern was caught on the Cobham amd a 43 on Vee. Many 40 inches or better. Too many to list but Patrick Mirick is on top so far with his Big Toothed Monster on the Cobham. Denny from the Johnson party had a big bellied Hog on Vee, they said the fishing was really good this year. They have been going to the for years opening week and have endured some crazy weather and fishing over the years. A hearty bunch from Wisconsin. They left us some of their pics when they came out. Here are just a few.

The first fishing report!

The first people out today were from Cherrington. And the fishing was Good. Both groups having fished there before, they did well. The largest walleye was a 26.5 incher with a couple of 25's on the side. Not a bad start to another season. Weather is pretty warm today and sunny. Good Northern weather. The Cherrington fisherman said they were smaller but getting more active with the sun. I will let you know more soon.

These are the faces you will see when you get to our base in Red Lake.


There are a few lakes with ice on them yet.



This is the Mayor of Loree lake. She was not really happy to see us, but she milled around like we were not even there.

Here is a video from a friend.

Sometimes people do not want company and chase them away. This guy was just being neighborly.

New Video of the Otter taking off from Blackbirch Lake

One of the dockhands took this video of me taking off one evening from Blackbirch.
