Report: Extremely smooth flights, great service, nicely equiped cabin. Tough fishing to start the trip off. Fish not relationg to the visible structure. Depth finder very useful to locate the fish on the humps. Later in the week, smallmouth, pike, and large walleyes feeding on schools of perch in the southern bay just before the narrows. Walleyes were easiest to locate in the portage lake to the east of Fishtrap. Easy portage and good equipment there. Of course, our rookie, John, outfished the whole group! Thanks Shane, Larry, and Mary for making this a great trip. Buscuits next time!

Member of the Schmitt Party emailed us recently and asked me to add to this post.
I wasn't very creative on this years fish report.....could you add an addendum for me.."The L-M conservation strategy is really paying off. We have noticed improvement every year in the size and quality of the fish. We use artificial bait and barbless hooks exclusively and feel good about leaving healthy big ones for years to come. What a treat to come to such a special place."
