You guys, this is getting serious. (Side note: check out Cosmo creeping in the photos) It has been almost 3 weeks of these little buggers hanging around. It feels like they fall straight from the sky like paratroopers. 24/7. All they do is eat and eat and eat. All the poor birch trees look like …
We saw several nice sized fish last week. Check them out! Tom caught a 34.5″ northern. Bill’s 24″ walleye Skip released this 24.5″ walleye. Bill caught several nice pike in the slot and over the slot like this 36″. Dennis landed this 40″ northern pike. Don tracked down this beauty – 28-1/8″ walleye to briefly …
How the heck is it already Friday? With a full camp and lots of fishing action this week, I really don’t know where time went. Summer is officially here. It is warm and sunny and Cosmo is quite pleased. This really gives him the optimal nap set up that he prefers. He just follows the sunny …

There was a special birthday yesterday at the lodge and it wasn’t Travis or Cosmo. Which leaves… Happy Birthday Carrie! Celebrating a birthday is tough at the lodge. There are really no days off. You can’t sleep in or make dinner reservations at your favorite restaurant. Carrie has also suffered through a few lodge “presents”. …
Meet Neela: Last week she and her family made their first trip up to Eagle Falls. And boy am I glad they did. We became fast friends, partly because Neela reminded me of myself in so many ways. Partly because we both have good taste. Right, Neela? I don’t want anyone to assume I am …
Another great week is in the books. This is one of the most highly anticipated weeks of the summer. This family is top notch. We are so grateful that they share their annual “Fish On” trip with us. They are some of the most generous, helpful, funny, and kind people we know. It is a family …
We are back with the answers to our “Camp Life” true/false quiz. Check below to see how you did. Spoiler alert: some of them were kind of trick questions. 1. Travis found a lonely baby goose in Martin’s bay. When he came back and told me, I begged to go back for it and adopt …
