Location: Lake of the Woods, Morson, Ontario | Storm cell through last night with 8/10's of rain. Thunder and lightning as well. More of the same today with a slow moving system that dumped rain and brought temps way down.
Will be interesting to see how the fish respond in the next couple of days. As is often the case, the fish went a little nuts during the storm fronts with multiple boats reporting good action. |

Location: Lake of the Woods, Morson, Ontario | Pretty decent day for fish activity on Friday. Common thread was had to be rocks involved. Welcomed another first time member of the 50" Club after a big girl hit a double 10. They had raised the fish two times perviously on other baits. Suicks and topwaters also produced some action.
Water temps "down" to 76 mid-day after the air temps cooled off.
Should be another great week of fishing with more excellent anglers on the way to fill the resort again this week.
Sure wish I was fishin!!! |

Location: Lake of the Woods, Morson, Ontario | Quality fish being seen, if not a lot of numbers for some. Overcast periods and low light periods have been noticably more productive for most of our anglers, though fish have been caught here and there during sunny, high skies as well.
Great action Sunday morning the first few hours before the clouds broke up and the heat & humidty jumped with the sunshine. Storm front through last night dropped 7/10" of rain in our gauge overnight and it is a lot cooler today.
Another 50" fish caught yesterday (Sunday), this one on a topraider. The fish hit right at boatside.
It will be interesting to see what anglers find out there the next day or two after all the thunder, lightning and wind that was part of the front. You can't catch a fish sitting in the cabin so get out on the water and find a hungry big girl.
Only two more fishing days in July before August is upon us. Where did May, June and July get to? WOW, time flies.

| Keep the posts coming Justin- I will be up fishing out of Greg Johnson's cabin 8/1 to 8/5 with 5 guys and 2 boats. I stopped in at the end of June for some ice I was with the wife and little ones so fishing was limited to say the least. My wife did stick her first 40-right at 40", but it was pretty exciting. My 5 yr old daughter was in the boat and she was a little leary of swimming in the lake after that fish hit the net. I will be Thur am with a group of guys to buy their licenses, gas up etc. How are the temps and algae??? Any reports of cleaner water- we did best in the Hay island area as that seemed to be cleaner water than Sunset channel area. Moved and caught most fish on black and nickel-was thinking of putting together some bucktails tonight any hot colors and sizes you might reccomend?

Location: Lake of the Woods, Morson, Ontario | Thanks Dave & Jay. We have some great guests that are comfortable sharing structure, lures, and other general info that can help others get on fish. Just one of the many reasons we feel like we have the best guests in the business.
Not sure I can say a hot colour yet this year. Seems to change every few days..one of the more common reports is copper blades...but has been different coloured skirts. Double 8s, 9s, 10s have all been productive this year, but more so the 9s and 10s, but I firmly believe that it's mostly just more people throwing the larger lures so keep that in mind. I like the double 8 northland boobie trap as my go-to lure to start fishing and save bigger stuff for times/places where fish are really going. Just my method, which has not been tested this year. LOL
Water temps were 76/77 this afternoon from one report. Algae has not been too bad. Water has been pretty clean without much wind and run-off without rain. Noticably stirred up a bit today after wind and rain last night though so have to expect it to dirty up a bit. |

Location: Lake of the Woods, Morson, Ontario | July is going out with a bang.
Last night a personal best 48.5" on a shoreline rock complex with a double 8 black/orange northland boobie trap. There is a reason i have a few on the office wall for sale.
Morning session today gave up a personal best 51" on a suick in the weeds. Yup, a weed fish.
Patterns? hmmmmm...back to the drawing board. fish good looking stuff.

Tell me about it. Sometimes I think it is more amazing when we catch 1 than we catch 5-6+ in a day with all the great looking places for them to hang out. |
