So we are heading back in the bush in about 18 days... ;D ...what are the water levels like? Has there been a lot of rain or has it been dry? What about temperatures, both air and water?
I just got back last night. There has been very little rain so everything is very dry. It rained a fair bit on Saturday. The surface temp in the Laniel end started the week around 18 degrees C on the main part of the lake. By Friday it was 23 degrees C so my crew wanted to go to Sand/Picnic Island for a BBQ and a swim.
The water level is normal for this time of year
@Riverrat I kinda figured that would be the case...seems that the weather around Kipawa pretty much mirrors our weather in Cleveland (usually minus a few degrees temperature). How was the bite? Did the rise in surface temp affect your catch?
I found that the fishing was better but the Lake Trout did slow down a bit. Everything is about 2 weeks behind. There are still blackflies. The water is finally warming up so a few finally went in swimming. The Walleye are finally on the move to their summer time haunts. Our group caught more pike and bass this time. All was good
Just an FYI I looked up a while ago. To type the ° symbol it is Alt+0176.
Cheers
