1. Best fishing techniques for spring walleye in Canada

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.

"Sitting in my living room in December reminiscing about the beauty and tranquility that awaits my arrival next summer. Can't wait to get back out to Mountairy Lake fishing."

1. Boomer Fishing For The Retired

"There's always the potential of a giant fish,' said Koenig, who along with brother Al brings groups of friends and business clients to Wapikaimaski Lake each year for Walleye in excess of 10 lbs. Primarily catch and release, Koenig said the quest is always to catch the 'giant,' and capture the moment on camera.

Because their trips are usually only four to five days long (he alternates between Wapikaimaski and Mosher Lake, where the group pursues large Northern), Koenig's group is serious about fishing. "It's a concentrated trip. We fish heavy-from morning until night."

If trophy fish is what you're after, Wapikaimaski Lake doesn't disappoint, said Koenig. "I consider it a really good lake to that effect. It's a huge lake -a totally different type of fishing." A 20 mile long lake, it has many hidden bays and islands and fast water.

An added asset is the remoteness and the abundant wildlife. In his many trips to Wapikaimaski, Koenig says he has seen everything from otters and moose to two Caribou who crossed in front of his boat--making for some incredible photographs.

The four bedroom cabin offers "excellent accommodations" for up to 12 occupants and offers everything you need, says Koenig.

And thanks to radio phones (one of the new services added over the many years he has been a guest), "if you run out of anything, they'll fly it in. They pay a lot of attention to their guests."
Which means all there is to think about is finding that giant.

1. Catching fish is fun!

Nebraska's Mark Schanbacher describes why he has returned to Mosher Lake every year since the late 1990s.

"You get some of the most beautiful sunsets and the colours are just amazing. Then there's the wildlife; the bears, the moose, the eagles fighting…"

Of course the Northern fishing is a special attraction for Schanbacher's yearly group which includes family and friends, what really makes it special is the "environment that you catch it in."

There are a number of reasons Schanbacher has returned faithfully to Mosher; the beauty, isolation and the short flight. The advantages of a 15 minute flight, he says are that for those prone to motion sickness--it is short enough to lessen that likelihood, and weather conditions are less likely to impede scheduled arrivals or departures.

Located 23 miles northeast of Kashabowie Outposts air base, Mosher Lake has helped in the creation of some family memories--from tipping a boat, (with a little help from a brother who's "not on the extremely coordinated side.") to cliff jumping for the kids.

Of the three-bedroom cabin that comfortably holds 10, Schanbacher notes, "They're very nice accommodations. I think most people are surprised when they get there, by the quality of the accommodations." (The cabin also offers solar-powered lights, hot and cold running water, shower, cooking stove with oven, refrigerator, with barbeque and fish cooker available.)

Alongside the cabin, a gazebo offers the perfect view of the lake--framed by rocky shoreline and granite cliffs.

Schanbacher admits that Mosher Lake is almost a secret he likes to keep to himself, because of a feeling of ownership he feels about his times at Mosher.

"When you're there, you feel like it's your lake. For one week, you have it all to yourself. There's no other cabins, no news…nothing, so the world just passes you by. Your whole universe is that lake. It's a great escape."

1. Smallmouth Bass, Walleye OR Northerns!

A well coordinated team, this couple from Ohio share a love of fishing that has made week-long fly-in fishing vacations to Kashabowie Outposts' Grew Lake a new tradition.

"Grew Lake is probably the nicest lake I've been to," says Ron (who was content with several Walleye in the over-30 inch range this year). "It's a very easy lake to fish." Even with last summer's hot temperatures, which usually make for harder fishing, "We still did very well. We probably caught a dozen over-25 inch Walleyes, as well as a few 12-17 lb. Northern." The couple practice catch and release, searching for trophy fish to capture on camera.

Nancy, who caught the fishing fever about 15 years ago, said the couple have enjoyed fishing new lakes, but have decided to stick with Grew. "This is actually the place where we have caught the biggest Walleyes."

In addition to the fishing, there a couple of other reasons for the Mandernach's loyalty to Grew. The wildness of this lake 68 miles northeast of Kashabowie Outposts affords some rare glimpses of wildlife, such as moose, bear and this past year, the opportunity to see wild grouse was a first for the couple.

"We go for the nature and the quiet and you get it-and it is absolutely awesome. One sunset is not like another and the colours are magnificent," said Nancy.

The accommodations (two bedrooms which comfortably hold eight) are immaculate and the equipment always in good working order, say Ron and Nancy. Now in their 50s, they also like the security of the radio phones, and only being a phone call away.

A short flight of about 20 minutes into Grew Lake means the areas is remote, yet close enough to be convenient, when the couple has a 1200 mile return road trip ahead of them. "They come to get you about 9 o'clock in the morning and then we hit the road on the way back."

Good fishing, quality service and accommodations combined with the familiarity they feel with the lake mean the couple plan on at least one Grew Lake vacation every summer, said Ron.

"We kind of got a tradition now-we'll probably keep coming to Grew until we can't do it anymore."

1. A sense of being taken care of.

As Kashabowie Outposts and its clients have known for years, Boomers are looking for adventure and comfort when planning vacations--and that is precisely what they offer with a top-class fly-in fishing vacation in Canada!

Kashabowie Outposts has noticed an increase in its retirement age travelers, and have responded to their needs by offering more amenities to provide a remote fishing and wilderness adventure, with all the comforts needed to enjoy the tranquility of nature.

A wilderness lake (at eleven of Kashabowie Outposts' 12 lakes you will be at the only cabin on the lake) provides the opportunity to catch large Walleye (8-10 lbs.), Northern (over 20 lbs.!) and the thrill of reeling in a SmallMouth Bass.

Experienced pilots provide professional floatplane service, which will transport you to a different reality, a private cabin nestled in the untamed beauty of northwestern Ontario's wilderness. Cabins provide the opportunity to drink in nature--the call of the loons, the lapping water-and several cabins offer the opportunity to enjoy it all from the deck or sauna.

All cabins provide amenities such as propane stove, fridge and barbeque, cooking and eating utensils, hot and cold running water, showers, solar powered lights and radiophones. You will also have the use of 14' boats with 9.9 horsepower motors and all the gas you require for as much fishing as you could possibly want!

While Kashabowie Outposts knows their retirement age guests enjoy comfort, they're not ready for the rocking chair yet! Therefore, they do their utmost to provide quality, safe yet truly unique wilderness holidays.

The Kashabowie Outposts air base is easily accessible (check out our location) and only 1-3 hour direct flight to nearby Atikokan or a scenic day's drive from Chicago, Des Moines, Milwaukee or Minneaplois/St. Paul.

It's the ultimate adventure and relaxation!

1. Biker Fishing Trips

Motorcyclists travel light, which is fine when you come to Kashabowie Outposts where boats, motors, gas and fully equipped cabins provide the necessities of a fantastic fishing experience.

Once you pack your fishing rod (check out What to Bring) and essentials, there is nothing to do but follow the highway's beckoning call--straight to Eva Lake. When you cross the bridge at International Falls, MN you'll soon realize you're in the heart of northwestern Ontario's wilderness. Thick forest and plenteous lakes frame the 105-mile trek along highway 11 to highway 633. After a right turn down Eva lake West's gravel road, a two-mile drive will bring you to the next stage of your adventure -- just park your bike in exchange for a bush plane ride to your private cabin on a remote lake.

Cabins offer propane barbeque, fridge and stove, solar-powered lights, showers, hot and cold running water, radio phones, kitchen and dining area, with some cabins offering decks and saunas.

After a day on the lake, reeling in 8-10 lb. Walleye or Northerns in excess of 20 lbs, or Smallmouth Bass, it's time to relax with a dinner of fresh-caught fish, surrounded by the serenity of nature. In fact, 11 of 12 outposts are the only cabin on each wilderness lake.

By the time your fishing vacation draws to an end, you'll be ready to hop back on your motorcycle and head for the homeward adventure--because exploring our wilderness lakes and highways gives you the total northwestern Ontario experience.
