My buddy Markus called in the winter with an invite from his cousin Cory to join them on Great Slave Lake. No brainer, just tell me when.
The trip lived up to every expectation and then some. New PB's for both Pike and Laker and great times with two buddies.

It's a doozy so grab a coffee and enjoy...

Here's a few highlights.





Arriving back in town with an evening to reflect on the trip we left with a couple of noteworthy remarks.
Sure you could go to Plummers or one of the other lodges and be guided all over the lake to their preferred fishing spots their guides have found over the years. We did this on our own and that felt 10 times better than that ever could in our eyes. We were fishing, not catching. Some spots worked, some didn’t. Some baits were hot, some not so much. We pieced it together as a team and but over 200 Lakers over the gunnel and 150 plus Pike in 5 days of fishing.
Another thing we noted was no BS or drama. We all helped out with whatever needed to get done to get us back on the water. We laughed our asses off, had great conversations about our families and just anything and everything that would come up. Just three buddies enjoying themselves in an incredible place with unreal fishing.
2016 is already in the works.....
