Kipawa Fishing Forum

Good luck to both of you!!  I look forward to your trip reports!
I'm up here now and will post a report when I return.

Good luck up there, we are headed up Friday as well for our yearly week at the wonderful Kipiwa lodge. So far the weather looks pretty good compared to last year for us.  Bringing Musky gear up this year, i heard there are some big pike in the lake!

I and my gang are headed to Kipawa on Friday morning.  Food is purchased and ready to pack except for IGA purchases.  Fishing equipment is all packed.  Fly fishing this year will be limited to top water only.  I packed a little more equipment to use for spinning rods, including rigs for drop-shot, jigs, wacky and more plugs (flying blind with plugs as I seldom use them).  Single malt Scotch tradition will be continued as well Blue purchase across border. 

Like others on this forum, this is the trip I look forward to the most every year.
I just returned from a SMB trip to Maine and I have a trip scheduled to BC in late September.  Getting on in years, trying to get as much in while I still can.

Will report back most trip.

It's a general trend away from forums. Forums have written words combined into sentences and paragraphs.

I always liked the fishing reports mostly to see familiar and unfamiliar parts of the lake along with the characters within those reports.

Glad to hear it!

Thank you.  I am really happy with the decision to keep this forum going!!

If you dont mind me asking, where is the Fox?

We are behind McKenzie Island in Fox Narrows.  Most people do not use Fox narrows.  There are a few prop rocks through the narrows.  Locals and well worn travelers of the Kipawa know they are there.  Weekend boat warriors do not stand a chance.  We average one to three boats a year to our dock that need a place to replace their props or need a tow.  Respectful travelers slow down and we appreciate that greatly. I always smile when I see a boat rushing through the narrows with their strong wakes, pretty boat, a dozen people on it, engine screaming, stereo blaring, beer drinking, then BOOM!!!!  It's a sound now that I know inside my cabin or back in the bush. LOL! We had canoer's stop this year to let us know about a rock pile they "found".    

Thanks! I was just being curious, thought maybe there was another area of the Lake called "the fox".

Great news, thank you to everyone involved.
