Hello everybody!
Spring is in the air in Northwestern Ontario. The melt is on and soon we’ll be in boats enjoying long summer days on the water. With any luck the ice will be out in the next two weeks and we’ll get a boat in the water to begin opening camp for the summer.
We’re Looking forward to seeing the first plane at the dock. Not much has changed at camp, everything seemed to winter well. We’ve got a new boathouse we’re looking forward to using this year after last year’s high water took the old one out. We’ve also got a new camp dog named Niisch, she’s excited to meet her new friends returning from a day’s fishing.
Our first group is the Holloway group, they’re our first guests every spring and regularly catch north of 500 trout on their 4 day trip. Following them will be the Harnett family looking to find a few giant Atikwa walleye and maybe spend a some time adventuring our many small portage lakes that have almost 0 fishing pressure and many walleye in them. Black lake in particular is a great spring fishery and is a small lake so it makes locating the fish a lot less time consuming. First of June the Owen group will be arriving and they’ll be on the hunt for anything that swims. They usually have a great week and catch a ton of fish all over both Atikwa and our many back lakes.
I Will keep everyone updated on here about fishing, water levels, and any other information as the season progresses. If you’ve got any questions or queries you can reach me at either 431 – 831- 9312 by phone or email atikwalake@gmail.com. Look forward to chatting!
That’s all for now.
Tight lines everybody, can’t wait to see you at Atikwa!
Kyle & Niisch
