Hi All. Just back from Canada trip. Had a great time. Cought 15 walleys and 5 pike with the lure before I put it back in the box. could not get a lake trout to eat it. Best pike of trip was 45 inches long and cought on minnow spoon 7 in silver blue. Will try and get pictures up this afternoon.

If you love to fish you should try a trip to Canada. this was my 11 th trip and plan on going back next year. the fishing is great !

I think it makes it 2x as cool if it is the same lure. Too bad that there isn't something unique you could do to the lure to show all the places its been. Like get a big white SSR and take it to the airport and have them stamp it with a passport stamp from all these different countries.

Post by Jcbyrne on Jun 26, 2011 9:50:26 GMT -4
Hi All
Thank you Ryan for posting pictures !
The lure went from Colorado to Saskatchewan. about 2800 miles.
Lake is a fly-in outpost of Lawrence Bay Lodge, Kamatsi Lake is east of Reindeer Lake.
I caught 15 walleyes and 5 pike with the lure before putting it away. Did not want to lose it.
It is the lure that was shipped to Me.
Yes, the lure was fished on steel leader and 10 pound line.
Should have taken a before and after picture of lure, there are many new scratches on it lol
My friends thought it was great that it is a traveling lure, and many will use it.
Thanks for putting this together, had fun with it.
Next trip Alaska !
Can't wait !
Jim.

Where in Alaska are you going Jcbyrne. I have been there once, went all the way to Kodiak. I can tell you the name or the place I went if you want. All of the people there were great and more importantly we caught lots of fish.
