Catch and Release

A little R&R

Posted by Brad Greaves on Monday, July 6, 2009 at 7:02 am

Wisconsin Dells is known as a great vacation destination. The resorts there are fantastic and draw folks from all over the world. But, the big question is “where would someone from the Dells go to vacation?’ I know where they go. Metionga Lake is as fine a destination as there is. Pete and Tom leave the Dells each year with a crew ...read more.

Hilltop Walleye

Posted by Brad Greaves on Monday, June 29, 2009 at 6:55 am

Larry Strangstalien has been fishing with us for many years.  On Hilltop Lake, his luck (or should I say skill) has proved to remain strong.

I know Larry will expound greatly on the skill part, but being on the right lake makes the success part of large walleye much more likely.  I am often asked which ...read more.

Last week the fishing at Hilltop Lake was nothing short of awesome!

A 44 inch northern and a 29 inch walleye on the same trip is worth the drive from Wisconsin.

Seseganaga

Posted by Brad Greaves on Monday, June 22, 2009 at 7:20 am

Jim Aslaksen Northern

Seseganaga Lake seems to consistently turn out some nice northern pike. Jim Aslaksen can attest to that. First week of June is a regular slot for the Heston Party and with fish like this it is easy to see why their booking is held year after year.

“Jim Aslaksen enjoyed a half hour landing this Northern. Had ...read more.

Irene Lake smallies

Posted by Brad Greaves on Thursday, June 18, 2009 at 7:10 am

Irene Lake is a unique lake around here in that it has walleye, northern, lake trout, whitefish and small mouth bass.   When the walleye are slow, you can target bass.  When the bass are slow you can target trout, when the trout are slow you can target northern… and the list goes on.

We’ve had a lot of cold and rainy days so far this season but it seems the fish don’t really care how wet it is. Without a doubt, ...read more.

All in a week

Posted by Brad Greaves on Friday, June 5, 2009 at 7:32 am

Don from Iowa was at Seseganaga lake last week with a few buddies. 

Fishing of course is a main event at an outpost camp, but a sampling of Don’s photos from the week show many reasons to make an Ignace Outpost vacation.

What’s New

Treble Trouble

Catch and release has been our policy with fish for many years. Keep some small ones to eat and release the big ones.

To facilitate catch and release we suggest you remove the barbs off your hooks. …
