The trip is over and the results are in. The results are.......it was the funnest, most mentally challenging, rewarding, scenic, beautiful, breathtaking, hunt I have been on. It was a scheduled 7day hunt. We had planned to to spend the day ice fishing on Wednesday no matter what our results of the hunt were. My buddy shot his wolf on Tuesday, I had not. I told my guide on Wednesday while we were fishing, that I had three words for him. They were " I'm coming back!" (No matter what the results were) I filled my tag at 8:42 am on Thursday. Oddly enough, that was the EXACT same time I filled my Bear tag. The Bear tho, was in the p.m.
We went through Five Lakes Lodge on Gullrock near Red Lake Ontario. We had also used them on a Archery Bear hunt in August of 2015. I filled my tag on the first day. My buddy was at full.draw twice but chose to hold off.
The camp owner was our guide on both hunts. Good luck finding a guide more knowledgeable of the area and that works as hard as he does. Or one that has better facilities and equipment. His success rates are high and after you go there, you will see why.
Feel free to PM with any questions as I will be more than happy to answer questions and re-live the hunt again. Hahaha.
The cold isn't as bad as you might think and WHAT A BEAUTIFUL TIME OF YEAR TO BE IN NORTHERN ONTARIO.
