Good Morning from warm and windy Happy Camp Ontario! The weather has certainly turned summer like, with temps reaching high into the 80’s the last few days! With the heat, the black flies and Mosquitos have become very intense. In fact, last night while dropping off a trailer, I could not see more than 2 feet in front of my face. Periodic rains have kept those fellers alive and well!
With the rain, the water has risen about 6 feet on the lake in the last week and the fish are scattered! Our old Friends Rooster and John came up for a visit yesterday! While cleaning walleye last night, I noticed the bellies pretty bare. With the explosion of Mayflies, this should change as well and the shift to the soft bottom will occur. Along with the Walleye, Pike are becoming more aggressive, John got a dandy over 10 pounds yesterday. But good for those 2, they only kept a couple fish for the dinner table and the rest were let go to fight another day!
Sadie is adjusting to life in the bush quickly. Magoo is showing her the ropes and they spent some time in the water yesterday cooling themselves from the heat and bugs. Sadie watched the Loons as Magoo swam circles around the beach!
Guess that is all for now, we look forward to seeing you all soon! Remember to bring your bug dope as well as your favourite lures to throw after the fish and soon you will too be Catching the Good LIfe with Us at Happy Camp Ontario!
