We've had it happen a few times. This 35" wouldn't let go and we were fortunate enough to get both the walleye and pike netted.

Birch looks like a fun lake. Really long, narrow, not terribly deep with points, bays, islands, rocks and weeds. A lot of what you look for in a lake!

Good luck up there! I'll be fishing for a...

This is an apples to apples comparison IMO. I've only done 1 fly-in and it was with Hidden Bay. Everything I've read about SF is top notch reports. Hidden Bay is as well.
