Derek and the guys caught some nice fish. Not as many big pike as they usuallly catch but plenty of 35 - 40 inchers. They found a few spots where the walleye were stacking up waiting for the fall whitefish run. one down past middle narrows, the other by Ferret bay. Both spots produced the entire week with many walleye over 26 inches and several pike over 40 inches.
Remember the water was about 2-3 feet above normal and the weather was much warmer than usual so the water temp wasn't nearly as low as usual. We were catching walleye by the hundreds in 4-8 feet of water.
I had discovered a small lake that we could get into with the high water.
(I also went into another small lake with Ed Janz that produced several pike over 40 inches and several hundred walleye per day - scroll down for that story)
Derek, Jim and the guys went in a few days and caught over 400 hundred walleye each day and several 40 inch pike including a 43 inch beauty.
They said it was the best walleye fishing that they have ever seen in 20 years fishing all over Canada.

They were fortunate enough to see this Caribou swimming and get close
enough for some great photos. Plus they saw a cow moose. Nungesser Lake is one of the few places in the world where you can see Woodland Caribou on a farely consistant basis.
