Joe Harvey, along with seven other family members, were the first to take on the Ogoki Reservoir in 2012, and they report that their trip was great. Scattered throughout Kansas and Texas, the family hopped int their vehicles and drove up to Canada leaving early summer behind to brush snowflakes off the bills of their caps out at Moose Crossing, near Mojikit Channel Lodge.

Joe, who arranged the trip, turned over our “check in phone call ” to his son Caleb, who was eager to tell us all about the fishing, eating those oh-so-good Walleye, wild life spottings, and “the big one that got away.” Our chat with Caleb is one of this week’s podcasts . Check it out.
