I have only had a wet line for a matter of minutes so far this season. The project list remains long and we still are feeling a bit behind from the late ice-out. The guests have been great about sharing information and this is what I can tell you second-hand about the fishing so far…. …
Tom DeBrosse landed a major lunker or as he put it – “I caught Walter”. Tom & son Mike caught and released a 29.5″ Walleye on Parker Lake. This is the 2nd biggest all-time walleye on Parker that we know about. Longtime guest, Don Krohn, has the all-time mark with a 29.75″ fish. Oh yeah, …
When guests arrive at Eagle Falls Lodge one of the first things they want to know is, “Where are the fish biting?” We’re happy to mark points on maps that typically hold fish, but the short answer is to go where the wind is blowing. Why chase wind? Wind creates an entire food chain …
No, the ice isn’t out yet. We were hoping to make a town run today, but a north wind has pushed the remaining ice on Red Lake to our shoreline leaving us boxed in. Hopefully tomorrow it will be out so we can get the barge out with some much needed fuel and supplies for …
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 …
This was the view when we woke up last Wednesday morning: It just screams spring, doesn’t it? Anywho… Despite the picture above we can tell you the ice is melting. We’re pegging the ice out date on Parker Lake as May 16th. We are still waiting on Red Lake. The bay where the …
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 …
Hello, We have been meaning to share the pictures from our last group of guests, especially the flurry of really nice sized walleyes that were caught and released on Parker Lake. We had one guy who had the magic combination because he caught a 23″, 24″, 25″, and a 27″ walleye in the SAME spot …
Carrie and I have been busy this week shutting down the camp, but I did manage to take a few minutes to fish Sunday evening. I was casting a green 1/4 oz. jig with a gray twister tail above the falls just a few yards off the dock. On my 2nd cast I felt a …
This season has been a boom year for smallmouth bass on Parker Lake. In the past we have only seen a handful caught each season, but over 20 have been released this year! Historically, smallmouth bass aren’t native to this part of the world. They were actually stocked by the Ontario government in many lakes …
