Can you find the Black Bear in this picture, with the fresh green grass and the
Black Flies both out in force we have been seeing a lot of Bear and Moose in the last couple of weeks.

The Walleye were biting on the opening day, kept enough for my supper tonight.

Brad was fishing the day before Walleye opening asnd was happy with the nice Small Mouth Bass that were caught, Hopefully there will be Walleye tomorrow!

Paquette's Camp update Apri 9th, 2012

It has been quite a spring here. We have set record warm temperatures and the ice is gone the earliest I have ever seen it go. I was even out fishing in a boat the end of March, the first time ever. I always try to fish for Walleye thru the ice on the last day of season which is April 14, guess I will have to do it in a boat this year.

March 19th, The last day I was able to safely get out on the ice!

March 22nd Emily had a kayak out on the lake playing between ice and water

March 26th Ice mostly gone

March 31st Fishing out of a boat

April 2nd Ice completely gone. ( Last year it was May 7th)

April 6th First person swimming in the lake ( I personally think my nephew was crazy)

Today April 9th, Cold wind and about 2 or 34 degrees.

It will soon be time to start getting cabins etc ready for the upcoming season, of course we never know if the weather will hold, we could still get a big snow storm. There is snow predicted for tomorrow.

Last day of ice fishing

One last trip out ice fishing while I still can, fishing was slow, but we had fish for supper!
