Group Name: Franzen

Guest Comments: Bass steady all week - mostly 14-17". Walleye were tough most of the week, though most were good size - average 20". 38" northern caught right by the cabin. Walleye seemed to like nightcrawlers best. Bass hit anything in front of them. There is a new fishing champ - the student has become the master!!

Lucas & Nicole did a great job - they go the extra mile for you.

Life is good.

Lake: Grant Lake

Group Name: Christianson

Guest Comments: Fishing was good the first day - lots of good smallies, a great 30-inch trout, good size northerns - all over the lake, but best luck right across the cabin near the Manitou rapids and under the Manitou rapids.  Weather moved in that night and fishing slowed down the rest of the week, but below the Manitou rapids was automatic all week.  Guys to did the Napanee portage loved it - good action there all week.  Great camp, gear, cabin - as always a first-class outfit.  We will be back next year!

Guest Comments: Northern pike in the 36" range caught numerous on spoons & gold Rapala. Walleye plentiful in the falls area on leeches. Some walleye near cabin, but not as many as the falls. Moving water key. Smallmouth came up on beds by mid week and were locked on. Biggest bass were staged in the falls, but were plentiful along the walls. Beds tucked close to bank in shallow water and readily visible. Caught a few lake perch and red horse suckers on leeches. Cabin was very nice and really enjoyed the gazebo.
