Its amazing how quickly a great fishing trip gets left behind. Two weeks have gone by since we got back from fishing for large trout in Manitoba.
Fishing the Manitoba Parkland
Tweet Our spring trip to the Manitoba Parkland region has come to an end. What a trip it was. Eight days of fishing for trophy trout. Over that time we fished six different lakes: Patterson Lake Tokaryk Lake Pybus Lake Twin Lakes Persse Lake Gull Lake The first five are associated with the
Getting Ready!
Tweet In less than two weeks four of us are heading to the Manitoba Parklands for a week in search of behemoth trout. The lure of large rainbow, brown and tiger trout is one that brings some people to the region year after year. We made our first trip to the area last September with

More Newfoundland
Tweet I got around to processing a few more images of Newfoundland. Cull Harbour was an interesting spot. You got to it by a narrow bridge. We spent an afternoon on a whale watching tour from Bay Bulls. The whales didn’t disappoint. We probably saw a dozen different whales in total. They were in the
