Cosmo was wanting to reach out to his fans and let you know some of his thoughts on the first week out at camp, so he asked if we could help him write the post. #nothumbs CANADA!!!!! Canada, Canada, Canada, Canada, Canada. They brought me back to my favorite place ever, and I get to …
Hello everyone! We are starting to feel settled here in Illinois after a few crazy weeks of closing up the lodge, traveling home, unpacking, etc. I think I’ve said it before, but it gets harder every year to come back to our “other lives”. I sat through a two hour meeting earlier this week and …
Hi everyone! Cosmo here. Carrie is helping me write this post because it would be fairly challenging to do so on my own without thumbs and all. Also, she seems to be worried about slobber getting on the keyboard or something. First things first. I’d like to invite everyone one coming up to see me …
Thanks for the concerns and kind thoughts expressed by many of you about Cosmo. He is definitely a part of the family and is not enjoying his “bed rest” much after his injury. I took him to the vet today in Dryden and confirmed he did suffer an ACL tear in his right hind leg. …

It is opening day here at Eagle Falls Lodge. Whether we are ready or not. I think Travis would agree that given the circumstances we did a bang up job. He also may be wobbly with slurred speech when you ask him. That guy. He stayed up all night getting the camp in ship shape. …
You came back! (If you missed the first installment you can catch up here). Sorry to have left you hanging, but who doesn’t like a little suspense? So we left off with Cosmo now soaking wet – soon to be freezing – but at least all cargo was safely back in the boat. Travis idled …
Greetings from up north! We are well into our first week of Canadian wilderness and it is proving to be an adventure! We crossed the border last weekend and played the waiting game until Tuesday, when we decided to attempt crossing Parker Lake. We wanted to make it an honest challenge, so we waited until …
The 2013 fishing season has been excellent so it was a fitting end to see a very unique catch during this last week. Tom landed a 31″ Tiger Muskie on Red Lake. This is only the second Tiger Muskie we have seen this season. Tom was by himself when he landed the Tiger Muskie …
