Kag 2010 #9 - Lake Trout

Never intentionally fished for lake trout in Canada before and didn't this time either. Crede and Joe drifted a little far out while fishing 3 Sisters and Crede hooked into a decent fish. After about a 20 minute battle Joe successfully got the net on it. A nice 22 incher. Then the debate began. Joe thought it was a short/fat pike (with no teeth apparently). Crede favored some sort of walleye/pike hybrid (rejecting all known biology). In order to be certain, Crede tasted the fish's scales, and then changed his vote to toothless short fat pike also. Eventually cooler heads ("sanity") prevailed and the proper I.D. of lake trout was made.

Kag 2010 #8 - Northern Pike

Fished a little for pike in the south end of the lake and into the South River. Didn't catch any over 38" but once again, Scott had the hot hand.

Kag 2010 #7 - Walleye

Sean with a nice walleye. We caught most of our walleyes in 15-22 feet of water. Jig and a tail, leech, minnow, crawler, salted minnow. All seemed to work well. Scott also used some crankbaits to put some in the boat, just to show me that he could.

Kag 2010 #6 - Fishing

Had good numbers and decent sizes of fish. Fished primarily for walleye. Best spots : Frying Pan Island north shore and south reef, Old Cabin Point, 3 Sister north shore, shore lunch island with Dale. Scott did well on a trip out the Kag drainage towards the Opichuan River.

Kag 2010 #5 - Boats

Boats were 14 ft. Lunds with 15 HP Mercs. Padded swivel seats, emergency kits, and minnow buckets provided. We brought our own depth finders.

Kag 2010 #4 - Lodge/Cabins

Stayed in Cabins #1 (Dan, Joe, Crede, Frank) and #2 (Steve, Sean, David, Scott). Full kitchen, Indoor plumbing, Propane grill, full linens, wood stove. Made a fire in the woodstove the first morning. It was the only time we used the woodstove.

Kag 2010 #3 - Fly In

Gear came in at 15 lbs per person under weight. Flight left Nakina approx. 12:00 Noon. A nice easy flight in with a nice landing.
