Au revoir Deer Horn Lodge, À la prochaine!

Once again this year's trip is at a close.

Hopefully we will be back next year with the boat all fixed and with knowledge we acquired with one day with the guide we'll be better at fishing for Lakers!

La Fin du Monde

We headed down to Burns Bay figuring it was about the max distance we could handle if we had to come back on the kicker

Fishing for Lakers at the Big Water with Andre

Desperate to catch a Lake Trout on this trip and knowing our current situation with our boat meant there was no way we were going to risk trying to go to the Big Water, we hired a guide today. 

Back to Waskega

Even with the main motor's unreliability we were still able to run back to the Waseka Channel

Consolation Prize

 

There was an outstanding sunset this evening.

Not again?

A fine misty and overcast morning - perfect for fishing!

Drove to Maniwaki to get the boat fixed

 

The next day we pulled the boat out of the water and drove to the Mercury Dealer in Maniwaki. 

Finally on the Cabonga Reservoir after a two year absence

 

On arrival day we headed over to Iroquois point.

Driving to Deer Horn Lodge

Not much appears to have changed since the last time we were up here two years ago.

We have a new fishing Buddy!

My sister left her dog Holly with my Dad while she and her family went overseas this summer so Dad brought Holly with us to Canada.
