Hello all, It is definitely starting to feel like the end of the season up here. We woke up to a cooler, rainy morning today – that hasn’t happened a whole lot recently. Travis is out fishing today trying once again to beat my season best for Northern (42″). We’ve both gotten to fish a …
If you’re planning on chasing Northern Pike during your trip it might be a good idea to pack a crayfish lure or two. We’ve lost count of the number of crayfish we’ve found while cleaning Northerns this summer, but they seem to be a popular forage. The photo above shows two that were found a …
Most of the group last week targeted Northern Pike and they came away with some beauties. Troy’s 44″ Northern on Red Lake Denise’s 38″ Northern on Red Lake Ralph’s 40″ Northern on Parker Lake Bob’s 42.5″ Northern on Red Lake Cody’s 42″ Northern on Red Lake Mike’s 41.75″ Northern on Parker Lake Ralph’s 38″ Muskie …
Welcome to a first at Eagle Falls Lodge – the first blog ever posted from the lodge! We are used to only posting once a week when we are in town, but we finally have internet working at the lodge. Many of you know it has been a battle to install working internet service at …
There are currently 93 forest fires burning in Northwest Ontario. See the thick smoke on the horizon above. We have been fortunate with wind direction lately to avoid heavy smoke like we had a week ago. Thick smoke and ash drastically reduced visibility for one day, but most of this week was much better. There …
Hello everyone, I am hear to tell you that we have two new rooms as of the 2011 season here at the Eagle Falls Lodge. Remember last year when we were attempting that crazy addition project that everyone (including myself) thought would NEVER get finished. Well, miracle of miracles they are done. We wrapped up …
In addition to some great fishing this season, we’ve been fortunate to enjoy plenty of wildlife around the lodge. A ruffed grouse hen has been running around camp since we have arrived and now has a large following of chicks. She gets pretty defensive when Cosmo gets too close to investigate. Mother grouse pictured below. …
Whitney continues to dominate the leaderboard, this time adding a nice 17″ Smallmouth Bass caught on Parker Lake within a stone’s throw of the dock. The next night Riley O’Dell wrangled a 16″ Smallmouth Bass just a few yards away. If you’ve visited us before, you probably know how rare it is to catch a …
Last week we organized and hosted the first fishing tournament ever (to our knowledge) on Parker Lake. The tournament was held during the few hours between breakfast and dinner. The 1st annual Parker Classic was a single day, two category tournament with prizes for the best four Walleye lengths and best four Northern Pike lengths …
This week my sister Whitney broke the stalemate atop the walleye leaderboard with a massive 28″ fish! The exciting thing about this fish was that it was caught on Parker in sight of the lodge. Water levels have been dropping due to the extremely dry weather we have experienced over the last two weeks, but …
