Another Big Walleye!!!

Mike Tomas caught and released this beautiful 28 1/2 inch Walleye yesterday. Biggest Walleye Mike has caught in his life. Mike and his proud dad Steve, who did the netting, smiling in the background, have been doing very well fishing for Walleyes with leaches on jigs. 
Every once in a while a Northern Pike would bite their line and that is what Mike and Steve thought they had on, a larger Northern Pike, because it made lots of very hard runs before they could even see it. When this large Walleye came up they were speechless for a moment. Then they netted the Walleye and started yelling. Their other boat came over with Mary Tomas and Roberta & Lester Heckes to see what the commotion was. Roberta took a few pictures and they quickly released her back into Lake Wabatongushi to continue providing great fishing for future generations. This would be a prime spawning female Walleye about 24 years old and a little over 9 pounds. Great Fish, Great Fishing in Ontario Canada.

Black Bear with Baby Bear Cubs

Black Bear with 3 cubs on Wabatongushi Lake Ontario Canada

Bear and Babies makes four Black Bears scrounging our Wabatongushi Lake shoreline. Saw this mother Black Bear and her cubs wandering the shoreline today. The dragon flies and some of the may flies are starting to hatch and the mother bear is probably picking up as many of them as she can. The cubs are very small and probably still nursing. They also play a lot but don't let Momma Bear get too far away. Followed these Black Bears for about 1/2 an hour and got some pretty good video below.

Walleye Fishing Season is Open

Walleye Fishing Season is now open here in Northern Ontario Canada and Joe D'Angello is starting off our 2012 fishing season very well by catching and releasing this beautiful 26 1/2 inch Walleye.

Joe and his friends had a lot of fun with our opening week Walleye fishing. This Walleye was caught fishing up at the North end of Long-Time-No-See-Um Bay. Joe has been been very successful fishing with minnows.

We are well into our first week now, the weather has been great, and the Walleye fishing  and Northern Pike fishing has been awesome.

Looking forward to a great summer of Fishing, Wildlife and relaxing wilderness vacations.
