July 09 Report

[McDonald Anglers]

We had an absolute fantastic fishing trip to Canyon Lake this past week. (July 24th thru July 31st.) We lost count of how many walleye we caught most days we were catching and releasing well over 30 walleye per day. We only caught one musky on a jig with a leech all week. But the real story was that slip bobbers were deadly on the walleye with leeches and minnows. We also pulled in some big walleye 24" and 26" at times casting smaller bucktails for musky. The Camp supper was really special too with Corned Moose, Smoked Trout Chowder, and Perogies w/ Sour Cream! Great job Lydia!!! We had a ball all week!
(I'll email you some pics Lydia!) They are too large to post.

Camp supper is my favourite day of the week, its neat to get together with everyone. Thanks for the compliments!
Walleye fishing is still outstanding and i know I'm starting to sound like a broken record.
A few more bass were caught this week so lets hope that is a good sign they will be more active.
Musky slowed down a bit from what I've been told. There have been some sightings but not as many hits.
weather is still really unsettled with sun and rain but hey, I'd rather have this than what they are having on the west coast. (The glass is half full!)
Next week we slow down a bit so I'm hoping to get over to our ATV lake for jumbo perch. My mouth is watering!
Steve......my husband Wayne lost a walleye to a musky a few days ago but that only happened to him a couple of times this summer. A lot less reports of musky attacking stringers. It is pretty exciting when that happens but it sure isn't good when you have supper on the line!
