2010 Season Begins!!!

Believe it or not, the open water season for 2010 has begun. All the lakes have opened up and Crystal is loosing it's last bit of ice today. We were out yesterday after the kids got home from school and trolled for about an hour, caught one nice laker, lost a couple more, and one good bass. Water temp was 35. The trout have been biting quite well most of the winter and still are going into the open water fishing. If any one wants some excellent trout action, plan an April or very early May trip! First time ever we have been able to fish out here in a boat in early April . Ice out is about 3-4 weeks ahead of time. Unfortunately, unless we receive a lot of spring rains, water levels are going to be down a bit due to little snow run-off this spring. A record winter for us as I only had to plow snow 2 times!! Usually it is 2 times a week.
Well, for all our return guests, our new office is in the new house that we have been picking away at for 6 years! We finally completed it last fall and moved in before Christmas. We did add nice little tackle shop, and what we are doing as a special promotion is anyone that refers a new group that books with us, we will give them a $50 credit good for any fishing tackle in our office. If you refer two groups, you will get $100 credit!
Moving into our new house allowed us to open up our old residence (number 1) as another cabin rental unit. We are, however, starting to get fairly booked up for this upcoming season, so if you or anyone you know of may want to come up this season, please contact us as soon as possible to reserve a date.
We are looking forward to another good season this upcoming summer. Thank you to all guests that have reserved dates for 2010 and to all our past guests as well that may not have the opportunity to come up fishing this summer.
Well, I have to go to get my walleye gear ready for this upcoming weekend, I am going to do some open water jigging before the walleye season closes the 15th. This is the first year we are ever able to try for some winter wallys from a boat!
