Just some reminders

1. WE are doing meals together, scroll on down to meals
2. Pack as light as possible
3. remember that your eyes are bigger than your stomach - don't think you will eat three time as much on this trip as you regularly do at home. so bring only what you will eat - I'm talking about snacks and drinks
4. There is a cost associated to this trip - As Rod and I figure out the numbers, we will post them.
5. if you are traveling with someone, help with gas for your ride - this includes quads and boats if they will take the money.
6. try to switch out your fishing partners so that we can get to know each other better
7. Help set up the main camp - includes tarps and firewood
8. bring earplugs - you will understand at night - there appears to be a few with deviated septums or fat build up in the nasal cavity. the resonation of the few has the ability to awake the many.
9. on the right side of this website, is the access to the lakeland PDF map. print a copy for yourself - it helps to know where you are going.
10. if you need a lifejacket let me know and I can fix you up

Dates For 2007

Thought we'd try July 11th - 14th 2007

fishing will be at the height of activity according to the lunar tables &

the fact that stake young mens camp is the previous dates chosen so we have to change ours don't forget the bugs will be awesome!

This Years Group

Wow, we had alot of people this year. George and Don are missing from this photo. Everyone made some new friends and we learned alot about food and packing. there were some monsters caught this year and this group was extremely competitive at the tournament.

George Pomerleau Award - Good Idea / Bad Idea

Wayne Jeanotte - while fishing, Wayne hooked onto a fishing line and joking that a body was on the other end got freaked when up came a huge pile of weeds and a fishing rod, what a great catch when suddenly a wave bounced the boat and flipped his own rod into the drink, lost until the next person snags a fishing line and jokes about reeling in a body.

Bring Toilet Paper

because Malcolm said he's not bailing anyone out this year.

Lakeland Map

If You want a detailed PDF map of the above,go to links

The lakes we fish are Jackson, Kinnaird and Blackett. We quad in from the Jackson Mustering point in about 10 KM's not the canoe trail route (3 km's). The trails are groomed but there is mud and some steeper hills, nothing that you can't tow a boat up though. Some trails are rough but there are wood bridges over all the muskeg area's. The lakes have Jack, Perch, Walleye and white fish. The limit on Jack is one over 63 cm's. The fish are very good to eat. The favorite lures are Len Thompson- five of diamonds, Croc's, Black and white spoons. The boats should be light enough to get through a couple shallow area's between lakes without motors running.

Rules and Regulations

These are some things we found to make the trip a happy one. if you have any to add, go to the comment box below this heading and add a way.

· Be fair to those who drive and provide boats and gas. it is expensive to run these items· Count on helping pay for fuel, we won't beg you but we hope your conscience pricks you to the core if you don't pay up. Ah we just won't invite you next year!

Camping as light and compact as possible is crucial to the amount of trips needed to bring in and pack out equipment. holy it took along time to get stuff out this last year· be fair, if your trailers empty throw some other people stuff in to lesson the trips in. each trip takes approximately and hour out and back. quading is fun but this was work and the fun was yanked out of it after the first trip back.

a schedule will be laid out for who's with who. everyone will get the a new partner from meal to meal. so that we can enjoy each others company and their fishin secrets.
· Work as a group on the lake always have another boat in view when fishing
· Boats should have a float and line tied to it in case capsizing (milk jug and thin rope wound on)
· Bring a 5 gallon jug of water.
· I like bringing paper plates because I hate doing dishes at camp
· Group meals will be made using everyones skills from flipping whatever to doin dishes that way no one feels left out.
