If you can promise me something bigger than Great Bear Lake I'm in If not I'm in... as long as I am up-right...this sounds like fun.

By the way...What's a trout?? is it like a bass...

Big Jim..Trout fisherman...has a nice ring...

Well it looks like there is enough interest for this to happen so lets make it happen...Joco bring the yak for sure I would love to try and kill myself in one of those . So I will have a confirmation by tomorrow if the 31st will work. I have 1.8 acres of treed land on a big hill but might be able to fit a few tents around. As well to there is a camping spot by the boat launch and my brother has made a nice spot on one of the islands there. So by tomorrow I will let you all know if the 31st works.

O.k...so it is all confirmed on my end...May 31st weekend it is. I will head up the Friday so that everything is ready for Saturday. So if you want to come I will send you a map of how to get there. Some of you already know how so you may not need a map. I will work on more details over the next few weeks and maybe even set up some type of small derby for all. Now I would like it but not necissary if anyone catches a laker that is a good size to throw back as they are only natural producing in this lake now. Rainbows are stocked every year so do what you want with those. I cannot tell you what to do with the fish you catch but it is just a suggestion. Hope everyone will have a good time and finally get to meet a bunch of you. As for camping like I said there are a few spots around the lake to camp as well as a couple on my property. Also there is a fishing camp at one end that rents cabins if you like...Just look up Mosque Lake on the web and you will find the camp. What you will need to bring is everything you need like steak, potatoes, beer, more beer, equipment, and I will supply the BBQ, toilet, cleaning area for fish and the hospitality. Can't wait for May now

Hey Pete, we are getting together at Crotch Lake (Tumblehome Lodge ) on the May long weekend. I plan on getting out everyother weekend after that and I think that might work for me as well. I have never fished for trout before so it sounds good. I have a boat as well. And I have a large tent so if there is room to set up it just may be a go.

[troutnmuskiehunter]

Awesome Peter!!!....thanks for gettin' this together.....should be fun!!!!!...I'll be releasing all trout caught unless someone wants to BBQ one ....(wow...pretty sure of myself eh? )....last time I fished your lake was 18yrs ago....caught a beauty 5lb+ bow on a fly :wink
