Good day and Happy Spring Happy Campers! Catfish Chris here on the Prairie with an update! Spring appears to have showed up on the Prairie, 1st Thunder of the year happened along with good amounts of very much needed rain over the past weekend. Many ducks, geese and shore birds are now around. The sloughs are chuck full of waterfowl!
Magoo will have her 5th Birthday this weekend and certainly Dilly Bars will be in order. We have a Siamese Cat who has found a nice place under the shed. We call him Charlie and Magoo and Charlie have fun romping in the yard.
The Spring Bear hunt is going forward, and with everything, there is always changes. Some major changes are a quota system based on some formula. What that means is while in the past there was no specific set number of tags, we will now have a maximum number of harvest tags for spring and fall, not both. Based on preliminary talks, I was told that with the current formula, Happy Camp Ontario would be allowed 2 bear Harvest Tags. So time will tell what develops with that, and it is not good news to say the least. I guess it is always something eh!
I was told most of the snow is gone in the north and hopefully this will lead early ice thaw, spawn and fish putting on the feed bag when we open Camp on June 11th!!
We still have a few openings scattered around, so if you’re looking for a trip of a lifetime, whatcha waiting for, shoot us an email or give us a shout on the phone to reserve your spot today and Come and Catch the Good Life with Us at Happy Camp Ontario!!
