Fishing

Another big lake trout for Jared.

This is old time fishing.  No electronics!  Isn't learning still fun? Twenty-two foot (6.8m) wood and canvas freighter canoes with 30 hp Yamaha outboards, tent camp with a tarp kitchen, superb campfire meals and lots of it, Midnight sun so you can fish all day long and the fishing is good to fantastic, but mostly fantastic!


The primary fish species targeted is lake trout with fish in the 20-pound (9 kg) range reasonably expected.  Arctic grayling and northern pike also available.
