MIKISEW FISHING TRIP

For their last bit of fun for the summer, my Dad and Curtis headed up to Fort McMurray and took part in a fly-in fishing trip. They had a great time, but didn't catch as many fish as they could have because they decided to "specialize" and focus on catching big Lake Trout. Curtis said they would have caught more fish if they had just went for big Jackfish from the beginning. The company that they went with was Mikisew Sportfishing.
They had a great time and would love to do it again, but fly in to somewhere else.

This is the Float Plane that brought them to and from the lake.

This the cabin that they stayed in. It had no running water, but was heated with a wood stove and propane backup. They were not cold.

This is the cabin from the lake.

This is an example of the fish they caught. They only kept enough to eat while there and did not bring any home. They went to catch big Lake Trout, but ended up geting mostly Pike.

All their stuff piled on the dock waiting for the ride home.

The taxi is here!
