Hi everyone, here is an update for June 25, 2017! Lots of First’s happened at Happy Camp Ontario the last week and thus the title of the update! Last week’s fishing was nothing short of wonderful, from lots of walleye being caught by trolling, drifting or jigging, to Pike over 16 pounds and Perch over 13 inches coming to the net! The FIRST walleyes ever were caught off of the dock this morning and were caught on a jig and twister tail.
In our travels this week, David from Pennsylvania and us were able to see our very FIRST Cow Moose with Twins in the area. They were lounging along a pond while we were looking for wildlife!
Speaking of wildlife, our old pals from Manitouwadge stopped in this afternoon. Rooster and John stopped in to chat and are headed to White Otter for an afternoon of fishing! Those old boys do nothing short of living the Wild Life and are headed to the Caramat Fish derby in a couple of weeks. Maybe they will catch the Big one and bring home a trophy!
The First Mallard and Merganser Babies were seen on the lake near the beach this week along with the Eagles have been seen around the nest on the north end of the lake!
The weather has been providing some interesting times, it seems everyday we get rain, and pea sized hail pelted the fishermen last week. One good thing about the rain is the berry crop appears to be in good shape. The Lady Slippers are ending their bloom but wild roses are starting to pop everywhere!
We have some Canadian fishermen in camp who also are checking out the area for Archery Moose Hunting this fall. We have already seen more Moose this year than all of last year, so that is another positive!
Fishers are back, need to go check with them, thanks for choosing to come to Happy Camp Ontario all, and if you are looking for an adventure, what you waiting for, give us a call today to save your spot to Come and Catch the Good Life with Us at Happy Camp Ontario!!
