July 09 Report

[McDonald Anglers]

We are leaving tomorrow morning also. Staying overnight in Virginia, MN and then arriving Saturday at North Country Lodge around noon probably. I called and talked to Wayne this morning. He told me that the walleyes have been very good with good size. He told me about a six year old boy that caught several walleye in the mid to upper 20's" off their dock this week. He also said that he thought they caught several muskies this week. Maybe we will see you there. Good luck!

Bugs have been doing very well. They are loving this weather and multiplying fast. I recommend anything with deet. It is strong stuff but works well.
Walleye have been great still and its nice to see the musky getting more active again. Bass still not as active but they are catching some.
That little guy catching fish off the dock is going to end up having his own fishing show someday i think. He caught his first walleye the first afternoon he was here (I believe it was 26") and he caught another one just a bit smaller a couple hours later. The next day he caught a 27 1/2" and the day after he caught a 27". That was incredible! He is totally hooked on fishing now. Wayne even had him filleting the fish. Not many people go home with a fish story like that no matter what age they are.
See you Saturday!
