from S. Elgin, IL returned for their th trip. On their DOA & first
day they caught 41 Northern Pike, 10 Walleye 20-24”, 9 –Smallmouth Bass & 1
Musky. Great start. 2nd day was “FABULOUS” as they caught 106 Pike,
8 Smallmouth Bass with Dan catching 3 trophies at 18”, 18.75”, & 19.25, but
the best fish of the day was a trophy Tiger Musky caught by Dan measuring 45.5”
making a record fishing day for Dan. Monday was all about Smallmouth Bass,
catching 60 most 15 to 17.5 with Dan getting another 18”er & Tuesday was
all about Northern Pike landing 85, and losing a bunch while top-water fishing,
and having a ball watching the Pike hit their lures about three feet in the
air. Last day they finished strong catching 6 Smallmouth Bass, each catching a
trophy 18”er, and 159 Northern Pike. As they left I took their traditional
picture in front of the tackle shop as they made reservations for 2014.

Larry Beard
Erwin, TN returned with nephew Jon from Virginia
Beach, VA & good friends OC Templeton from Gate City, VA, Tony David from
Big Stone Gap, VA, John Hook from Jonesborough, TN and father & Within hours of arrival OC, & Tony caught
their 1st Northern Pike ever. And by the end of their first full day of
fishing this entire group all caught their first Northern Pike ever plus 25-50
more. At the end of the day the total tally was 335, plus or minus, Northern
Pike plus Larry & Jon caught a Trophy Smallmouth bass each and Tony &
Wendel each caught their first ever Muskie. It was so on fire for a while that
Tony caught 5 Pike on 5 casts with a Buzz Bait. During their 5 days stay they
had another day of catching over 300 Northern Pike. John Hook took OC &
Tony walleye fishing on separate days both with 6 of the fellows, having never been to Canada
fishing before enjoyed the fishing and all that came with it like the wildlife,
seeing Moose, Eagles and many other
animals a birds/waterfowl, had their first
ever shore lunch, and realized the value of our remoteness at Fireside Lodge.
All had a “FABULOUS” time and intend on returning sometime in the future. fabulous results. One day they caught 25 Walleye all being between 20 to 28” & another day 26
were caught with a 6lber taking top billing. For two days 6 members of the group concentrated on Smallmouth Bass fishing catching well over 70 one day and over 80 on the other day. A lot of these were very big smallmouth and if fact the group accounted for 29 Master Angler Award Trophy Smallmouth Bass between 18-19.5”. Larry also caught the biggest Muskie or the trip at 37”.

Monster Trophy Tiger Muskie Fishing at Fireside Lodge Canada

John & Mary Ann Lugibill from Columbus Grove, OH were
referred to us by long time guest Bill st day they
caught some Northern Pike and a great big Lake Trout. All week these two did very well catching
Northern Pike in the 27 to 34-inch range. One day John lost what he thought was
a big fish just by the way the fish stayed down, shook it’s head and gave a
very strong run. So him and Mary Ann returned to that spot on their last day.
Before too long Mary Ann hooked into a good fish, which ended up being the big
fish of the week. After a 10-minute battle Mary Ann perfectly led a 47” Tiger
Muskie into the cradle, and John did a great job netting this monster of a
fish. They also got a great assist from guests Jack & Pat Gangler as they
were fishing in the area and helped take pictures & released this magnificent
Trophy. Everyone in the dinning rom congratulated Mary Ann at suppertime for
her once in a lifetime catch. John & Mary Ann left having a wonderful stay.

Pat & Jack Gangler from Aurora, IL who were on the spot
to help John & Mary Ann above are long time guests from our first year.
During their 5-day stay they caught a lot of Northern Pike & Smallmouh Bass.
Jack and his son Pat have been on this traditional father & son Canadian
fishing trip for over 25-years. They were breaking in their newly purchased
boat, christening it with many fish throughout the week. Both enjoyed another
stay with us at Fireside Lodge a hope to return.

Phil Spahr and his two sons Brad & Greg with their two
sons, Phil’s grandsons Steven & st day Phil’s tenure showed through as the
st
trip, caught a Trophy 20” Smallmouth Bass. Next day was Muskie fishing &
they did great landing 4, the largest being a 38” clear Muskie. They had two
other great fishing days one catching 77 Northern Pike with a few Smallies and
their last day they landed 49 Pike with 2 Smallmouth Bass. The week was full of
fun and many lodge conversations about fishing, wildlife, and life itself. Special
catches of the week were 12-year old Christopher & Steven landing Master
Anglers Award Smallmouth Bass at 20, and 18-inches & the 38” Muskie by
Grandpa Phil. In addition to all the great fishing, this three generations
group enjoyed the wilderness we have, and being that it was Greg &
Christopher’s first trip they were in awe of what was available in wildlife
& birds in the area. All left with sadness that their long awaited trip was
over but said it was time to plan for next year. Hope to see them all again in 2014.
