wild ride

Well what a trip this was as John and Jim were my 5th guide of this year and we had an adventure to remember for sure. We caught 21 Brook Trout with 8 over 22 inches with a 25 incher being the biggest. John caught a fat 6lber and Jim had a solid 23 incher. Jim also managed a dandy Pike on light tackle that was 39 inches good for 17lbs. These guys are awsome to guide and have great outdoor skills. Jim is a great cook and they help out alot around camp, thanks guys!!! We had a wild ride comoing home as there was a Thunder storm behind us and we spent 2 hours in 6 foot rollers. That was a long ride but we made it. John & Jim are hardcore for sure!!!

Dick and Jane are in their 70's and day one was cold with some snow and they are hardcore approved as they both caught a big Brookie on day 1. Jane had a solid 23.25incher that weighed in at 5.2lbs and Dick caught a 22incher just over 4lbs. Dick managed to beat that on day 3 with a 23incher at 5lbs even!!! Way to go you fisherpeople and congratulations on your fish and ability to deal with the elements. You are Hardcore approved for sure!!!!!!!

We put 24 in the boat with 2 7lbs plus, WOW! Jeff's fish was 24 inches with a 14 inch girth good for 7lbs. Martin's fish was a 22 incher with a whopping 15 inch girth good for 7.5lbs. They both now have a new personal best for Brook Trout. What a start to the season!!!!

Well we just had a Hardcore weekend of fishing Brookies as I took 4 kids winter camping they were 12,8,7,5 years old. Tyler is 12 and was my second in command and was a good helper his brother Cole is 8 and had fun. Simeon my oldest son was on his second winter camping trip and did good and Daniel my 5 year old was on his first one and did really good. I was impressed by these kids as they are tough. We caught 14 Brook Trout and Tyler caught the most (5) with the 2 biggest 16.5 inches, 16.25 inches. I was next with 4. Daniel had 3 including catching two at the same time (double hook rig) Simeon and Cole each caught 1. We missed lots too!!!!!
