What a wonderful trip in 2006. This was my first fishing trip to Canada; and
according to my dad and his two fishing buddies (who have been coming to
Canada since 1960) it does not get any better then this. I guess we will
find out when we come back next year.

Honestly, unless you keep a journal on the boat, you can not count the
number of fish you catch, their sizes, and how many times your line just
zips off the reel as the Northern run.
As for how good it was.

4 guys 1 week - 36 Trophies  (41 inches or better)
Largest N. Pike was 44 ½"
Countless Walleye 16 to 25 Inches.
N. Pike 35 to 40 inches - we only counted (1) one day and two of us had
raised 15 and we figured that was about average for the week.

That does not account for the few that "got away". My Titanium Steel leader
lasted about 12 hours! The weather was amazing and I felt like a little kid
again when we used surface lures one evening and there is nothing like
seeing a 35" Northern strike the surface- it is two weeks later and I still
get goose bumps thinking about that water exploding.

Sincerely

H. Houghton
