A quick recap of some of the shenanigans from the week we had our friends and family up to the lodge. This is one of our favorite weeks of the summer for a multitude of reasons. More fishing being a major highlight. Over the course of this week, we had lots of great fish caught by veterans and rookies both.
Here is Aaron with a 21.5″ walleye:
And Claire with a 18.5″ walleye:
Erin caught this walleye on Parker lake:
Here is Mercer with a 21.5″ walleye”
And Carter with a 22″ walleye:

Jamie got this 24″ walleye on Parker as well:
Jason caught this 21″ walleye:

Here is Jill with her 19″ walleye:
Riley started off the week strong with this 29″ walleye on Red Lake:
Sarah caught a NICE 10″ rock bass!
Travis didn’t just guide all week, he also got to fish! Here he is with a 22″ walleye: 
And my dear brother, Will, with a 13″ smallmouth…
…and this “bite-sized” perch. Ha!
We enjoyed a shore lunch with the whole group as well:
Claire, Addison, and I provided the appetizers – fresh wild strawberries!
We also tested the limits on the kayak – a 4 man version here with Mercer, Riley, Claire, and Addison:
All in all it was a phenomenal week. It brings Travis and I great joy to be able to offer friends and family the chance to make it up here for a week of fishing and good times. We feel pretty lucky to get to share this place! We miss everyone already, and it is hard to believe that a week has already gone by since they left. Happy Friday, y’all.
