Hello everyone! * A real quick phone/internet update: everything appears to be fixed and working properly. We apologize to everyone who had a delayed email response or was unable to get a hold of us by phone while we were setting things up/dealing with issues. Lets hope all operates as it should for the rest …
Greetings from up north! Travis and I made it up to Red Lake last week and monitored the ice situation for a few days before boating into the lodge from the back end of Parker Lake. Everything at camp is up and running! It was incredible to watch the ice melt off of Red Lake …
Hey everyone! Travis and I are taking a mandatory vacation in Windsor, Ontario this week. What the heck is a mandatory vacation, you ask? This one came about after we were informed that the Transport Canada rules had been changed, requiring us to have a commercial boating certification to operate the Eagle Falls Lodge barge. …
Hello everyone! We are super excited about our new t-shirt and hoodie design for the 2013 season. Travis encouraged me to let it be a surprise, but I can’t! We are impressed (again!) with the talent and service at Bigfish Screenprinting – a huge shout out to everyone there for exceeding our expectations! You can …

We just finished our last sports show of the season in Minneapolis. Thanks to everyone that stopped by to visit! The Northwest Sports Show is huge and it’s always fun seeing guests and getting the chance to chat with other lodge owners and fishing vendors. After talking to some folks in the Rapala booth, one …
Well sorta…. We are heading into our second day of the Northwest Sports Show in downtown Minneapolis, MN at the convention center today and it is FREEZING! They still have loads of snow up here and my run this morning greeted me with a chilly -3 degrees. At least the sun is shining! We are …

There’s plenty to think about when preparing for your trip so we thought it would be a good idea to outline the requirements for crossing the border with kids. Children ages 16 and up require passports or passport …
Hello everyone! We are headed out of town at the end of this week to attend the Mid-Iowa Bass Masters’ annual event in Des Moines, Iowa. It is a Saturday/Sunday only show and it takes place at the Iowa state fair grounds. This is a great event for finding bargain tackle and equipment as well …
