Fireside Lodge 2013

Trophy Northern Pike Fishing Fireside Lodge Canada
|
Opening was a bit more of a challenge this year. Winter and
lake ice seemed to hang on forever as we found ourselves trying to save our
docks two days before opening day instead of preparing for guests arriving.
Four of us spent 10 hours defecting ice from the front of our docks, creating
an ice jam against shore so the ice would not crush our docks. When all was
said and done we saved them and got the details done to open and prepare for
our first Fireside lodge guests of 2013.
Close but we made it with about 5 minutes to spare!!!!!!!

First guest of our 2013 fishing season was again Frank
Hazzard from Arlington, TX. This is Frank’s 23rd consecutive year at
Fireside Lodge and it shows in his lake knowledge and ability to find fish in
just about any condition. He is also very kind to share his knowledge with
others, rd place. Frank has a passionate feeling for
Canada’s North, which shows through every minute he is here, and especially
when he departs. We hope to see Frank in 2014 for his 24th
consecutive year.
and even takes some other guests with him to help them catch fish and
learn the lake. Some examples of daily catches in his boat are, 3 people 152
Smallmouth Bass most between 15 to 17.5” & 1 Lake Trout, 2 people 93
Smallmouth Bass, 6 Lake Trout, 1 Whitefish, 2 people 83 Smallmouth Bass, 1
Muskie 38”, 1 Northern Pike 38.5”, & 3 Whitefish. Along with all the great
fishing Frank had another wonderful Canadian Wilderness experience, enjoying
the wildlife and natural surroundings, good conversation with other guests, and
playing up-words with Beverly & Steve (Audrey’s Parents) every evening
coming in his usual 3 |

Terrific Musky Fishing at Fireside Lodge Canada

Mike Uebelherr
from Stow, OH was back for his 11th fishing trip at Fireside Lodge
in 8-years. He did very well catching many Northern Pike throughout his 5-day
stay with us. Most were in the 28 to 36-inch range plus he accidentally hooked
into a huge 40” Muskie. He said it was in just several feet of water near an
over hanging tree. He saw the swirl before the fish hit, and then the fight was
on. Mike managed to get a picture even though he was by himself, which is very
difficult to do. Before leaving Mike told us he had a great trip and plans on
returning a second time later in the summer.
