Stu would be the expert on that one but I have not been there yet and got skunked.

If its summer and season is open the cats are there. June-Aug. won't let you down.

This season it has been nuts all year, almost non stop action since mid May.

The opener in mid May is a good time as in early June. I personally like mid to late August and early September, to each there own.

Stu is "DA Man" up North, he has the pulse of the lower Red under his thumb. His recommendations are wise to watch and plan by.

All times are good but if I was able to select a 4 wk period I would pick the 3rd &4th wk of Aug and 1st 2 wks of Sept., Why. Well the frogs are migrating to the river then and the kitties are feeding up for winter and they are on a feeding craz then. They usually are a little bigger (25 to 30 lbers are the norm).
The only slowest 2 wk period some years is the 1st 2 wks of July but the last couple of years this has NOT been the case. If you can count 20 kitties per day a slow.

Canuck Bib Shanon will be on his way up on Monday. I hope to be with, not sure just yet due to family issues here at home.

Are the same hopper spots as usual good to the South this season. Big Shanon just loves to catch them hoppers don't ja know.....Eh.

Are you free on the 17th of August? I may need to pass a 4 client group along to you or Stu if I can not go North before the 17th.

E-mail me on this if you would. I would need to chat with you on the details before you agree to anything, OK.

I hope to be up on Monday for the week as planned. But things are in the air with Mom in the hospital and so much uncertainty looming. Mom is not good, not good at all I am very sorry to say. Been a tough deal here the past couple of weeks, Uf-Da!
