Trip with son and grandson

[Thumper]

We are thinking of a first time son, grandson, and grandpa trip,in August 2005. Grandson is 10 years old, he is an experienced fisherperson, will easily last all day, every day in the boat. I have done search on net and overwhelmed with replys. Would appreciate any recommendations based on experience--including fly ins.

I have been going to the same place for 7 years in NW Ontario. You can drive right to the camp, good people, very reasonable and fishing is excellent. Shoot me an email and I can put you in touch with him.

I am planning to take my father on a fishing trip to Ontario this summer too and have been overwhelmed by direct mail and emails from resorts. Any advice/recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for an economical, drive-in trip.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Thumper:

We may have exactly what you are looking for. My Lodge is very remote, yet only 1 hr. north of Int'l Falls, MN. It is a boat-in/fly-in lodge with 6 cabins. It's a 35 minute boat ride to camp, you get the seclusion of a fly-in but not the added price of the flight. From our main lodge we have 13 lakes to fish. We fish for Walleye, Smallmouth, Lake Trout, Northern Pike, Muskie, and Largemouth bass. On our two main lakes, we fish out of New 17'6" Lund Outfitters, with flat floors, casting decks, pedastal seats, live wells, bait wells, lowrance graphs, and rigged with new 50 hp. Honda four stroke outboards. Our cabins are all fully modern, they all have seperate bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, large living rooms, decks and air conditioning for those hot august nights. We have a 5,000 sq. ft. lodge where our dining room is located, along with a sm. game area, store, bar, satelite TV, and a beautiful 800 sq. ft. deck to enjoy great canadian sunsets. We pride ourselves on our fishing, cabins, lodge, equipment, and our service. To make all of these factors come together, we limit the number of guests to 24 people. Our business is repeat business, Once your hear your family. You can view our HSOforum at www.happylandingfishing.com if you have any questions after viewing the site please feel free to give me a call or e-mail and I would be happy to answer any questions or provide you with some references. We also have discounts for children under 16 yrs. old.

Thanks,

Matt

If you are looking for walleye, musky and pike, I would recommend Lac Seul Outposts. Our group has been going there for over thirty years. Do a search on this site for lac seul and read some of the posts. I know there are some others that have gone there as well. Good luck on your search.

Thanks for the replies, I will talk these over with the boys at Christmas.
