It was a long shift. I am back from the North for the first time since last fall. Like many outfitters we have had to take on another job to ensure survival as the Border Closure continues to plague our Industry. I was fortunate to find a job that I enjoyed, kept busy at and […]
The melt is slowly starting…… March is coming in like a Lamb, I hope not out like a Lion. I prefer to go with 3 snows after the crows 🙂 We had a fairly nice and easy winter this year. Cold (-25 to -30C) a few times but it didn’t stay for too long. Moderate […]
Christmas is fast approaching. We hope that everyone is getting ready for Santa and that you plan to spend some quality time with family and friends. Our days are very short now. The sun doesn’t get up until well after 8am and is down just after 4pm. We started out cold this fall, but as […]
Rena and John, We are back home and in trying to get into the routines of life. I keep telling myself that “a week ago we were on Jeanette Lake” and try to reflect on where we were fishing at that specific time. I wanted to take a second and send a sincere thank you […]
We have been busy and life is good. Our fishermen are catching lots of fish and everyone has been coming back from the bush with some great tans on their face and hands, some with racoon eyes and some like me without. Fishing has been very good, lots of fish and quite a few […]
We have been going hard, getting ready for the season. The camps are all open and people are enjoying the bush. The weather has been dry and sunny most days with temps on the 60’s and 70’s almost every day, but the nights are very cold. We have had frost right up until the last […]
We have been waiting for this time to come! The ice is going and we are opening camps. We will have just enough time. Like always…… 🙂 We have been fairly cool at night so the ice has taken its time leaving. Plenty of lakes are still iced over too much to get […]
25 years ago Rena and I began working with my parents at Amik Lodge and Outposts. Since then we have grown into a great team who have tons of experience in the outfitting business and know how to keep our guests happy and coming back year after year. Pictured below is the first Cessna 185 […]
The Clark/Herrington boys have been fishing with us for many years and look forward to their fishing trip more than Christmas. Fishing the same lake for this many years, they started out pretty green and have seen their size and quantity of fish increase immensely since they fell in love with the North. Here is […]
We are over the hump and past the summer solstice the days will begin to get shorter soon. Before then we have lots and lots of fishermen who need some sore hands from catching so many fish. Every hand I have shook has been covered in cuts and bandaids from walleye after walleye. The gill […]
