2011 Fishing Opener


Well, we're off to a great start of the season! Cameron caught a 10 pound northern off the dock today! :) He was VERY excited!
And, we've got a "new" dock boy- Nathan!! He's been a big help on the dock- helping boats come in, getting minnows for guests, etc. We're excited that our boys are old enough to start helping out! hehe
Dave has been very busy working on the docks. He's made some sturdy supports for the walkway, so it feels a lot better walking across it now. What a nice improvement!
Larry has been busy building a couple of new decks for cabins- they look great!
Sally and Betsey have been busy opening cabins up for the season and getting the lodge ready.
We're so happy to see guests arriving for the Opener- it's great to see familiar faces and meet new people.
Here's to a great season!!

Hope you all had a great holiday season! We've had about 75" of snow so far this year. We live in a winter wonderland!

The snowmobile, cross country ski and snowshoe trails are in great shape. There is still some slush on the lake, but if you stay on the marked trails, there's no problems at all. The land trails are beautiful. The snow is clinging to the branches making the scenery like something on a postcard.

Larry & Betsey will be coming to Rosemont, Illinois for the America's Outdoors Show Jan. 26 through the 30th. They'll be in Booth #520, so if you're in the area, we hope you'll stop by. We're excited about the show and the improvements that have been made. We'll be offering some Sports Show Specials at this show as well as the Northwest Sports Show in Minneapolis March 30 through April 3. Dave and Sally will be attending that one in Booth #909. We hope you'll drop by and say hi.
