WALLEYE?!?



With little to no success the night before, today 07/07/11 during the afternoon Elliot, Mark and Blake all took the boat out to try their luck at fishing again. Luck paid off, Elliot landed this rare but beauty 27.5", 7+lb walleye! Yes thats right folks, a Walleye (Rare for Stocking Lake known for its Largemouth Bass and Northern Pike.)

And to kick it all off it was caught on a plain hook with a night crawler.

Great catch......

Jacob of Swanville MN is smiling from ear to ear after landing this nice 33.5" northern Pike today, needless to say he and his dad are back in the boat fishing for more.

hungry bear

2 nights ago Ellen picked up after a bird feeder mess, assuming it was a bear that came along to snack on the seed, it even broke the weld to the bird feeder pole.

Last night I captured photos of the bear as it returned for another round of snacks. The pictures are not great as the lighting was not bright enough without me using flash.
One of our seasonals is a welder and happen to have his equiptment here so he was able to weld the bird feeder pole back together.

Resort industry loses a leader (click here for details)

For those of you who got to meet Karl or have golfed on the 9 hole course just down the road from us at Evergreen Lodge.

Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

Where is Spring?!?!?!

Okay, this weather is getting real old real fast. We just received 5"-6" of snow last Saturday and it isn't melting very fast!!!!!! Even the Robin is at the suet feeder (bottom photo, hard to see)since it can't reach the frozen worms hiding under the snow.

FYI- The ice out last year was March 29th, its April 19th and I see no sign of ice out anytime soon.

I'm Frustrated, can you tell?
