Big Walleye on the Georgian Bay – 2009 – Diamond Key Lodge

Peter Batt and a beautiful Walleye

The monster walleye are starting to bite – wow! Georgian Bay Walleye Fishing at it’s best – fat bellies and beautiful looking … puts a smile on everyone’s face – great for a shore lunch …

These are real lunkers.

Fishing still great

We had some windy weather, but some nice fish as well … and the Walleye have started biting. It is always a struggle to get our customers to give us the pictures – geesh … it is like pulling teeth sometimes. But, we wrangled these ones … very happy guys.

Tobi – Guarding the Leg

Tobi - Guarding my Leg

When I ruptured my achilles tendon, my love machine dog, Tobi, would not leave my side. She simply sat at my feet and guarded my cast.

Nothing gets past Tobi

A beautiful Storm

Today, it is raining. It can’t always be sunny. A long term customer “Barney”, asked Maggie to post a picture of a rainy day … well … we don’t keep that many pictures of rainy days … So, we have asked Barney to get us a picture of himself – soaking we – and we can post it.

Big Northern Pike from the First Week of Fishing – Diamond Key Lodge – 2009

We held a few tournaments the first week of fishing at Diamond Key Lodge.  The winners were Dave Wiens and Ed Lucchetta … Dave had the biggest Pike and the Lucchetta father/son team caught the most Pike.

Here are a few more

Some Big Bass from the first week of Pike Season

It was unreal … the bass just kept hitting on Pike Lures … of course, all returned quickly to the water … just some monsters …

Fishing from Shore - Right back to the water

Dave's Big Bass, within an hour of a 24 lb Pike - almost not fair.

They just kept biting ... this is all in the first few days ... crazy.

My Dad – On the Pontoon Ride Home – Smoking a Cigar

This is my Dad.   He joined us for the fishing tournament and then had a cigar on the Pontoon Ride home.

Monster Pike on Opening Day -2009

Last year, David Wiens caught his first Pike at Diamond Key.  So, we invited him back … apparently, he has been secretly practicising.  Quietly honing his skills.
