Guest Comments: Wonderful trip! Loads of walleyes, mostly 17-18 inch, several 20-24 inch. The bigger northerns were hard to find, although did catch 6 between 30 and 36 inch. Typical fishing: periods where you had to question your intelligence followed by shortly after moments where you couldnt go wrong. Accomodations where you can do no wrong. Had the priviledge of breaking in the new fishing cleaning shed and new outhouse. Will have many storys to tell for years to come, some truer than others. Kydos to the hosts and pilots.
