Plus +2 very cool trip! I'm sure the boats felt like they were shrinking in size the further you got out there!

[Wanderer]

Excellent!  Those were some of the better 12 minutes I've spent today.

My next trip to Isle Royale will be in a new to me Starcraft Islander 221 BRKT which will be a nice upgrade from the Tyee,,, Now the long wait till spring ,,, Hopefully next year I will make more then 1 trip to the island and take more pics

Great video.

 

Looks like a fun time was had by all...

 

Still working on "Lena" - my 24' SeaRay, and I hope to make a few trips like that with her in the future.  Thanks.

[Surface Tension]

Congrats on the new boat but I don't see any pictures.

[smalliehunter]

Wow.  Looks fun!!

[i'majigger]

Hard to believe you got that many days on the big pond without wind. Looks like a great trip.

We are heading back up to Isle Royale for the 4th holiday weekend ,,, Hope to have another video when we get back 

[Big Country]

Be safe Randy.  Envious right here.  BC

Made the trip out to the island in some fog ,,, Fishing was rather slow till we put a pattern together ,,,A fellow fisher man had a waterwolf camera and showed us some underwater video which helped us put our pattern together,,, Weather was cool but calm seas helped ,,,, We didn't get any salmon or steelhead and from the chatter on the marine radio neither did any one else but the lake trout cooperated ,,, Making plans for another trip later in august but this time I will have my own waterwolf camera 

 

Hope to have another video to post when the Capt has time to put it together (I didn't take any pictures)

 

I was surprised that it wasn't busier being the holiday weekend  ,,, We had other boats at the dock but getting a shelter wasn't an issue 

[LoonASea]

Just got back from our second trip to Isle Royale ,,,, Weather wasn't perfect (glad I now have radar) but we got lots of steelhead this time with a brown and lakers mixed in ,,, Hope to have another video of our trip in the next few days ,,, Didn't see many other boats out fishing around us but lots of trailers in the lot at Grand Portage
