A common question we get here at the lodge is “Does Cosmo get to go out in the boats?” The short answer is NO. This is because he tends to jump right out. With absolutely no warning. I mean zero. You can be cruising across the water at 20-30 mph and bloop, right off the …
Alright, you’ve tried lindy rigging and hopefully pinned down a nice school of walleye. What’s next? While you can certainly keep lindy rigging, we’ve found several repeat passes will eventually spook the fish off a spot. Our favorite way to catch walleye once they have been located is to jig fish.

However, sometimes it can be hard to knock out all our own laundry in addition to camp sheets, etc. And the hardest laundry to get done around here is definitely Cosmo’s blankies. Don’t get me …
