Ghost River Camp help?


Recommended Posts

Was curious if anyone has been to the Ghost River Camp area trying for eyes and gators this summer?

We are considering trying this area next summer for our summer vacation. Has anyone been here before and what was your thoughts on the experience you hade there.

It sounds and looks like it would be a good time,leave the roads behind and boat in,but maybe not have the extra expense of flying into a lake.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! cool.gif

I was lucky enough to go to Ghost River camp a few years ago with 9 friends. We stayed at their remote cabin that slept 10 and was not too far from their main lodge. We had a blast and caught a fair number of fish. They have a guide named Don who is very knowledgable regarding the area. We found the best fishing to be to the far east and a bit south by Twin Falls. It is truly beautiful with these twin water falls and three or four pools that are at the base of the falls. At that time, they held a lot of walleyes and northerns. Two or three guys did the portage thing to other lakes and caught some lakes and whitefish. Overall a great experience but I will probably not repeat it as there are so many new areas to continue to explore. Good luck and have fun!!

FOOTDOC:

Thanks for the report on your time up there. Curious did you take your own boat on the trip or use one of the base camps boat?

Still a good option to leave open for a remote area trip. Can I ask was the boats on the lake busy or did you feel like it was a remote experience? I would think were you can't drive to it that the camp would be a layed back time!

Thanks for the update. cool.gif

This was a very remote experience with no other boats in site and no other boats passed by. One of the most scenic things I will remember is that on the way to twin falls, you have to pass under a real neat canadian railway bridge that is incredibly built. Once we were jigging around the bridge abutments and a train came thru hauling timbers. It was just neat to see this in the middle of nowhere and the view was awesome. We used camp boats and I am happy we did as they were very adequate as I remember.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
