Also, a reader of this board got 3 muskies on in a day trolling in October. I believe they were 39, 47 and 49, but I could be wrong on that. He could have got more too, but he was: a) by himself and b) took a treble hook through the finger on the 49 incher, which was the third of the day. I haven't been sent those pictures yet, but he keeps telling me it will be soon.

Not too bad for a fish that is suppoed to be hard to catch, huh?

I live in Nestor Falls from mid May to mid Sept. Great little town with real nice people. I caught over 60 muskies last year over 40". The biggest was 52".

Why stay in Nestor Falls? Well, you can fish LOTW, Crow (lake trout, great smallmouth, big muskies and northern), Whitefish Bay, Steven's Bay, famous Stoney Portage Bay, Burrow Bay, etc. without having to run thirty miles by boat. All my muskies were caught within 15-20 miles of Nestor Falls by water. Most within 12 miles. There is a really nice grocery store, tavern/restaurant (Green's), Lawg Cabyn restaurant, Nestor Falls UCC church, a catholic church, a great ice cream shop, several fly-in services, a couple of good bait shops, Helliars for quick groceries, gifts, gas, minnows.

I don't know what else to say. Oh wait a minute....another good reason is that I live there. Drop me an email before you come up and I'll mark up a map for you or take you fishing if I am guest free. I have fished this area for 50 years. All of them in Nestor Falls. Look forward to meeting you.

I have ben coming to Nestor Falls for the past 18 years. I absolutely love your town and Lake of the Woods. I will be there this year from July 17 through July 24. Would you mind corresponding with me at my office over the next few days? I would like to know if any algae bloom is on the water yet and what the weather was/will be like just prior to me leaving to drive up from Dallas, Texas. I will be leaving Dallas the morning of the 15th. I am predominantly a muske fisherman, but I like walleye, smallmouth an northern as well. For the first time I am bringing my 9 and 1/2 year old son up this year. I will be staying at Omer's (C&C). Any help, advice, tips or news...particulary weather and fishing reports would be greatly appreciated. My work email addres is alan.gohlke@liquidenviro.com.

Thanks,

Alang
