Rap Video of their fishing trip to Canada

We just added a new favorite on our Fly in Fishing Channel on YouTube, and we’ve included it here for you to enjoy!

This “Canada Video” was sent to us by what could be the most creative family fishing trip group that we’ve ever had stay at one of our Outpost Cabins! They sure look like the whole family had a great time making this Rap Video of their fishing trip to Canada! Check it out:

Loganberry Tales

Loganberry is where we’ll be
Flying here straight with Kashabowie Outposts

With our friend Fern this place is tight
You can get yourself here in half an hour flight

This lake is great and the cabin is kickin’
You can catch yourself some fish and you’re finger lickin’

This place is the best and we wish we could stay
eat sleep and fish, every single day.

So now lets kick it, to the first verse
Common now Jake, just like we rehearsed.

The weather is perfect, not to hot or cold
Put this place for sale, and two seconds it’d be sold

You can swim if you want, but it’s a little chilly
and when you start to shiver, you’ll look really silly

So we make a fire, so big it burns a tree
You can say goodbye to your eagles and your bees

Where my momma lets my beard, grow out long,
and she tries to write verses to her own song.

Where I don’t need to stay and clean my dish
Instead I get to go out and catch a fish

It’s Canada, that’s where we are
Just ask Fern, cause it’s not that far.

The water’s cold, I’m not gonna lie,
but deep inside is the big walleye

Sleeping on the bed is nice and comfy
you won’t fall off like humpty dumpty

No other places have showers this nice
Look no more, Fern’s got the best price.

Only a three mile walk to the can,
hope I don’t get jumped by that shadow man,

This cabin is bombin’ I don’t really mean to diss
But do really need this bridge to take a piss?

I love it here, it’s all fun and good,
but my homies be callin’ they need me in the hood.

I can’t wait to get back to the USA
I guess Canada wasn’t all bad – ‘eh’?

Thanks for the memories, we had a lot of fun
but now I’m sad, cause it’s all done

I’ll miss fishing, playing too,
but we snuck 50 fish back,
so the joke is on you!

My best fish was only this big
It made me so mad I’m going to snap to this twig

You have a contest, picture of the year
That idea might get old we fear

It’s all about the creativity
We’ll always be the winners, don’t you see?

Thanks Kashabowie Outposts!
We’ll be back!

Best fishing techniques for spring walleye in Canada

Fishing summer Walleye and Northern Pike in Canada

admin — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 17:19:40 +0000

Our fishing has been tremendous of late. Pull up to a windy shoreline and start casting with a search lure. Catch a Walleye and switch to a jig and minnow. Seven feet has been the magical depth for the most part. We are starting to see Walleye move to rock humps and points but the weeds are winners these days. Lots of small minnows in amongst the weeds. Don has been coming forever. We are his fourth camp owners. He caught his biggest Walleye ever a fat 28 incher on a jig and rubber grub. Not two miles from camp.

Trophy Northern Pike have become a little harder to catch. Lots of crayfish in their bellies.Trolling deeper, 10-20ft or again working the weeds with a spinnerbait. White has been a hot colour. We have been topping out lately with 35 fish.

Smallmouth are hitting anything you toss. You just have to present it to them.

Water levels are above average for this time of year. Bugs haven’t been too bad.

Looking forward to another fantastic week of fishing at Woman River Camp.

We are half way through our 2010 fishing season and would like to thank our guests and share some of their fantastic photo’s. We always appreciate the great video’s and photographs they send us.

Each year we have a photo contest for our guests, and the winner gets to go fishing on us during the next season. This contest is a challenge we enjoy each year. There are so many fantastic photo’s it makes it difficult to pick the winner. Here are some of the great photo’s we have accumulated over time.

Lake pictures are always great, there is no shortage of beautiful scenery in Northwestern Ontario.

Pictures with Aircraft in them score pretty high as well. Fishing or Boating pictures work well, like this shot at Wapikaimaski lake.

A shot including one of our outpost cabins is a sure bet. Like this unique shot out the front windows of Tommyhow lake

This is a great picture of C-FOCC departing with a canoe.

Different lake shots with varying weather conditions, can be interesting.

This is a real nice shot off the dock at Loganberry lake.

A shot that included one of the outpost cabins in it would be almost impossible to pass up as the winner.

Keep the pictures coming in, we love them all.

New Upgrades For The New Year

Some of the Loganberry crew on there way to do some Walleye fishing. They left Kashabowie Outposts this morning to start their fly in fishing trip. Loganberry is a fantastic Walleye and Northern lake that offers a full service cabin that can sleep 12. With hot and cold running water, Shower, dual fridges. There is also an ice house that gets filled each year depending on the ice and snow conditions.

This was one of the smoothest flights we have had this summer. It was 60 F at 5500 ft, a flight to remember.

Ontario Fishing Outpost

Brian — Thu, 13 May 2010 01:19:33 +0000

We are very excited about the opening of fishing.

The water is low and with the early ice out and warm water temperatures the Walleye and Northern are going to be hitting hard. We have started opening our camps and have noticed very low water south of the base. We were at Loganberry lake and found the water to be at mid summer levels. The bush is very dry so having camp fires would be inadvisable even when there is no fire ban currently in effect. Bass fishing in fact all types of inland lake fishing should be Dynamite.

Each day that goes by gets some lucky Fishermen one day closer to winning the Kashabowie Outposts Win a Fishing Trip Contest

Hope to see you all this Summer for some Fantastic Walleye Northern and Bass Fishing.

Smallmouth Bass, Walleye OR Northerns!

Smallmouth Bass tend to stick to open water. All you need is light to medium action spinning rods, I prefer a bait casting rig with a 6 foot medium action rod and 8 to 10 pound test. Fly fishermen can have a great time with Smallmouth. I’m not a fly fishermen but am interested in getting information about Bass fishing techniques with a fly rod.

In the spring Bass like most inland lake species will be in the shallow water, so top water baits, Chuggers and Poppers seem to be the way to go.

In the summer you can find these hard fighters on the edge of weed beds, under water islands, rocky points in deeper water. The lure to use is a 1/8 to 1/4 once jig with a twister tail, black,purple, amber, yellow and white. When its all said and done you can’t beat live bait, Crawlers, Minnows, and leeches will fire up the laziest fish.

A fish locater will help you find the structure you want to try.

Set your trolling motor at a crawl and cast it towards shore bouncing your jig off the bottom as you search for your spot.

Once you locate the terrain you want to fish, drop the anchor and start pulling the Smallmouth in.

There are some new regulations regarding Smallmouth, follow the links to the new rules.

Have fun fishing and don’t forget your Passport!

Springtime Northern Pike Fishing

Brian — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 13:11:15 +0000

After a long winter there is nothing better than getting back on the water. Spring Northern Pike fishing is a great time for the whole family! These hungry game fish provide alot of action – on almost any lure!

Springtime is an easy time to catch big Northern Pike! They have just finished spawning and tend to lay in shallow water. As the water warms up they will move off to the first structure they find. Working out from the shallows to the edge of weed beds or drop offs puts you in good position to catch big Northern.

Northern Pike Fishing" >

What to Bring Northern Pike Fishing

The equipment and lures you would need to bring to catch lunker Northern are;

A medium to heavy action rod 7 foot with at least 25 pound test,
A leader is important to reduce the chance of a tooth or gill rake cutting your line.
A good bait casting reel or large spinning reel is paramount to winch in your trophy.

Some of the things I find that work well for Northern Pike bait are

Spoons,
Jerk baits,
Topwaters,
Spinner baits

In the spring, northern pike will bite on almost anything flashy and noisy!

You can always count on Northern Pike for a good fight, so dig in your heels and hang on tight!

Catching fish is fun!
