Hi, folks! It is the eve of the 2013 bear hunt and the cool, wet weather has continued. By the way, our baits are being clobbered each day. We are excited to see what how the hunt develops.
Weather certainly is showing signs of fall. Leaves are changing and the cool nights as well as days are not helping. We did reach 70 the other day, followed by an all day rain and a high of 51. Today it did not rain and was 60 for the high, hope the dry trend continues!!
The first migrators have showed up from the north. Flickers, nighthawks, robins and some kestrals have been seen along with our loons that fly over twice a day, morning and night to say Good Morning and Good Night as they soar over the lodge!
Fishing continues to be up and down, and we hope to get out fishing yet this week to give you a first hand update. Reports have been spotty at best, but a boat has been seen at Ichi Lake the last two times I went bear baiting, so they must be catching something!
Our garden is in full bloom, and we have peas and a few small beans! If it stays warm until December, we might have tomatoes, but we think that will not happen?
Magoo is anxiously waiting for the bird season which opens on September 10. She is excited to put her teeth around some fresh feathers!!
Check back in hopes of some new exciting pictures from our bear hunters as well as fall fisherman, bird and moose hunters! We have a few openings left for this year, so what are you waiting for, come on and catch the good life with us in beautiful Northern Ontario at Happy Camp!
