Happy 4th of July Weekend!!
Summer has hit these past couple of days with high humidity and temps in the 80's. It is sure nice to have a cold lake to jump into to cool off.
As promised here are some more pictures of some of this year's nice catches.

Hi everybody! We are getting into the busy part of our season, so you should be seeing lots more pictures posted here soon, like this one from John.
Note to those of you who were here last year. You should have received your green plastic outdoors card in the mail this past winter. Don't forget to bring it with you.
See you soon.

Another exciting day on the water! The following 3 muskies were caught this afternoon, all in one boat. Gordon and Hal had a great time bringing them in along with the nice northern.
There were also some nice walleyes caught this morning including this 26 in. one caught by Carl.

News Bulletin! If anyone is thinking about putting together that last minute fishing trip, our guides, Larry, Mark and Robert are available from June 1-13. They would love to take you out and find you some of the fish like the ones pictured below.
After 10 days of fishing we could already fill this page with pictures of trophy walleyes -5, 6 and 7 pounds, with the 31 1/2 inch pictured below topping them all. This one really made Al's day.
8 year old Peter was very excited with his two big catches on his first day of fishing here.
Another young fisherman, Drew, along with his father, Steve, had a great first day yesterday.
Hope to see you soon.

Well time to put the ice fishing house away for another season, the ice went out real early, so Dwight got his boat out so that we could continue fishing and we did right up to the last day of Walleye fishing. I had a blast.
I had a great ice fishing season as you can see by some of the pictures below.
I even had the pleasure of fishing with a couple of our guests, for a few days. They showed up where I fish on their first trip and on the second trip it was by accident. I still was able to keep ahead of them with the fish tally. See you guys in August !!!!!
The move to the island was great , we brought Diesel, with us to keep us company, as we lost our Max in November. So it will be a one dog show this summer . We are trying to go without getting another dog but it will be hard.
The yard looks so nice. The guys have been working on getting it all cleaned up, Linda is here getting the cabins spit polished and shined, and I have started to get the kitchen smelling good with cookies and fresh bread.
We hope to see, our friends real soon, new friends, old friends, girl friends too.

The ice is out!! Dwight made a boat trip on Sunday, April 10 to the island. Since the ice left so early this year, we were able to get some fishing in by boat before the season closed, and they were really biting from the tiniest right up to the 8 pounders. The season closed today, and will reopen Saturday May 15, after which we will welcome our first guests of the season. We still have cabins available for that opening weekend, so give us a call if you want first chance at those hungry walleyes.
See you soon!

Hi everybody. It's been a while, but a lot has been going on here. On January 24, we took Patsy into the hospital with chest pains. She didn't actually have a heart attack, but I think they were calling it unstable angina. The doctors were able to stabilize her, but then couldn't get her into Winnipeg for an angiogram until the next week. She had to stay in the hospital to keep her priority higher on the list. Well with complications from all the medications she was given to keep her stable she ended up with complications that delayed the angiogram. She ended up waiting in the hospital, bedridden because the doctors were afraid of blood clots, for 26 days. When she finally got her angiogram, they were able to put a stent in and sent her home the next day. It is taking her a little longer to bounce back from this one, more from the enforced bedrest in the hospital than from the procedure itself.
Now that she is home, life is returning to normal. Lloyd has been having fun taxiing his plane up and down the bay. I think it is a great temptation to let it lift off, but he is behaving until he gets the required amount of taxiing in and then he can get it certified. A dream come true for him.
February was a beautiful month with lots of sunshine and warm afternoons. Donna has gotten out quite often this past week or so.
Yesterday, some more of us were able to join her.
Our friend, George, had to plunge his hand down the hole to keep this one from getting away when it broke his line right at the surface.
Bye for now.

Happy New Year! Hope you had a very Blessed Christmas and are enjoying the New Year. It has turned almost balmy here considering it is January, with the temps going above freezing yesterday. I'm sure it won't last.
Thought you might like to see what Donna was up to a couple of days ago.
Nice job Donna!!
We have recently updated our Opportunities page. You can see availabilities through the end of July, so if anybody is thinking about a trip this year, check out the dates or give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you

Time has flown again. It seems like we were just moving in from the camp and now December is here and everyone is preparing for the Christmas holidays.
We enjoyed a beautiful November with temperatures well into the 50's many days and lots of sunshine. The snow has finally arrived, though, these last few days and is turning the landscape into a winter wonderland.
We ended off our season with another very successful deer hunt. Th big one pictured below, was a beautiful 9 point shot by Pete Jacobs, and weighed in at 287 lbs. field dressed.
We had 4 deer hunters again this season and all 4 met with success.
Kristin was very excited when she got her 1st deer this year.
Our duck hunters had some good shooting and great fishing. This 40 inch northern wrecked Paul's favorite lure, but judging by his smile he wasn't too upset.
Have a very Blessed Christmas and Happy New Year, and we will talk to you again soon.

Just received more pictures of some of our mid-September fishermen and their catches

Just got some new pictures this morning from the Daltons and grandson, Andrew.
Andrew was very excited for his Grandma Sue when she landed this nice northern when they were here in early September.
Andrew is ready for shorelunch.

What a beautiful September we have enjoyed!! The sun has shone, and the temps have been in the 70's and 80's. After a rather cool summer, it has been much appreciated.
Now that we are getting closer to welcoming our duck hunters back, we are looking for some colder weather. It has been rather cool, and windy today, so maybe more fall-like weather is on its way.
Anders and Kristin headed back to university at the beginning of the month and are settling into their routine for the school year.
The walleye fishing has stayed strong. Jeff Koeppel and Travis had a great time last week, along with the rest of the rest of Jeff's group.
Here are some samples of muskie action seen in Sept.
Our bear hunters had a couple of successful days.
Hope to see you soon.

Well, it has been a while since we updated this page. Hi to everyone, and we hope things are going well for you.
We didn't see a lot of sun during July, but when we did get a few nice days in a row, everyone sure enjoyed it.
We have some more nice pictures to share with you.
Arnold and Rusk Anderson thoroughly enjoyed their shorelunch. Who says you can't enjoy the outdoors just because you turn 90.
Arnold and grandson, Travis, also enjoyed 3 days of fishing.
Dale Larson had fun bringing in this walleye. It measured at 30 3/4 inches.
A couple more nice ones that put a smile on Rick's face.
Tom Koke, Dan Huston, and Tim Lovich celebrated their 20th year of visiting New Moon Lodge.
Here are some of their fish caught this year.
8 1/2 lb. Northern
26.5 inch walleye
40 inch muskie
43 inch muskie
Newcomer to the group, Brian, topped off the trip with this 47 incher.
Remember, Fall is a beautiful time of the year up here, and we are running our Mid-Summer Special through September, so give us a call. We would love to hear from you.

Well, we have had our big 3-day windstorm for the season. Lost a few basswoods, but no damage to the buildings. It is supposed to blow itself out this evening, and then the forecast is much nicer for the rest of the week.
We have a few more pictures from last week to add to the list.
13 year old Brayden had a smile a mile wide when he landed his 45 inch muskie.
Ryan Luther was reeling in a nice bass when he felt another big hit and he ended up bringing in this 49 1/2 inch muskie along with the bass.
Another one of Ryan's catches.
June 17, 2009
Robert and his guests Arnie and Jo Ann were thrilled when Robert landed this 57 inch muskie!

The beautiful summer weather finally arrived a few days ago. Our fishermen have been enjoying it along with some good fishing. We have another sampling of the fish caught this past week. These pictures and others can be seen on our Facebook page as well.
Arnie and Jo Ann had a great day yesterday with lots of bass and walleye.

Then Nick started his run with a 24 inch
a 26 inch
and then this 28 inch.
Grandpa Ron got in on the action too with this 27 inch walleye.
Here is a sampling of some of the fish the Salg party caught this spring.
