From a weather perspective, things could not have been more mixed at Miminiska Lodge. Foggy mornings. Clear and warm mid-days. Loud and boisterous thunderstorms in late afternoon – just about every day. But from an angling perspective it could not have been smoother sailing. Every guest in camp caught dozens and dozens of Walleyes every day, from the Honey Hole, to the drop off by shore lunch island, to the outflow of the Trout Fly River. Mike and Matt Meyer from Sharon, Ontario had a Walleye trip that dreams are made of. They talk about their secret to success, lure selection and more in my podcast this week.
When Scott of San Francisco, CA cast his fly line in the shallow pencil reeds behind the Honey Hole, it was “hold on” because he was catching big fish! Scott, daughter Andie, and Scott’s dad Peter had a trip of lifetime. Scott operates a specialty adventure company in San Francisco targeted at youth. You can learn more by visiting his website.
This coming week our guides will explore the waters between Miminiska and Makokibatan Lake – so I’ll have some special news about this rarely fished zone of the Albany River next week.
