Five guys and five wives (first time we've ever taken women on our fish-camp adventure) ventured forth to the Chapleau Wildlife Preserve in Ontario Canada for a week of fishing and fun. Trip went well, and the women actually enjoyed themselves. Here are some pictures and captions.

There is a LOT of this on the way there. Drive to the end of I75 in Sault St Marie MI, go across the border, pick up Rt 17 north and drive to Wawa, turn right on 102 and drive some more.

Before I caught any fish, I caught some Poutine in Wawa

Later in the week, Jimmy and I were fishing in the same boat. I caught a bass, tossed him in the basket. 60 seconds later, Jimmy did the same. When the second fish hit the bottom of the basket, they looked like twins. I thought that was cool.

One morning went out jigging for walleye and caught this guy

Here's a fish story:
The water on Como Lake is crystal clear. So I'm fishing with Donny, and we're trolling. I told him he should switch to a spinner, as that was what I was having success with. So we stop, and he puts on a spinner jig. He had about 6 ft of line out and put his pole over the side, while he rearranged his tackle box and put some stuff away. He looked down then said "Hey, look at that, a fish is checking out my lure..." I looked down then saw this fish strike the lure and try to run off, hooked himself, then Donny reeled him right in....
