The week before Christmas...

Been doing some fishing lately. There's 16" of ice on Lake Winnipeg, and a little less on the Red River. Neither one has been any good for fishing. Catching a few walleyes and saugers, a couple pike - but pretty slow.

Heard from Neal at the lodge. All is good - they only had about 6" of ice. Saw a few caribou tracks, but not much happening at the moment. Still too early to go right across the ice because there's still a few weak spots. He's getting ready to take some more amazing shots this winter. He bought himself a really nice digital camera and taught himself how to use it over the winter. He got some pretty amazing wildlife shots. You can check them out at www.godslakelodge.com/photos We'll probably use some of them in the cabins.

Will be fishing again tomorrow - hope the local fishing picks up soon!
