Sand Point Charters

Thursday me and my boys went to the Manitou Island area to try the scum line after fishing on the south side of the island. Had good success on the south, with 4 nice lake trout, but even though we found the scum line did not find the fish in the 40 minutes we fished […]

Thursday, this week was too windy to fish, so spent the day in town and cut a couple cedars for my dock among other things. Friday I had planned to fish out of Eagle Harbor, but as I launched my boat, I noticed the wind pickign up out of the WSW. I decided to change […]

Fished in Lake Superior with the boys on Monday in order to try new places. Did not find any new ones, so we fished for a short time on one of my “spots” and caught 4 lake trout. Two of them came in together as a double header, one on a deep sea (meat pole […]

Had a slow day with 2 printing shop workers from Mn this morning, one of which I took out into Bete Grise last summer. The threat of showers held off and the weather was really nice in spite of the fog on the lake. Fished about 6 miles out on a temp break, but could […]

Wednesday, we took a sightseeing ride out to Manitou Island Lighthouse and Gull Rock Lighthouse with a couple from Maryland. After this trip, they were going to Ontonagon to see the Fourteen Mile Point Lighthouse, then to Grand Marais, MN to make a circle around Isle Royale to see Rock of Ages Lighthouse, Passage Island […]

Sunday was spent; with the family and visiting friends at Lac La Belle, but hope as I might, nobody asked me to take them fishing, so Finally, I asked Margaret if she wanted to go for a boat ride out to Bete Grise. She consented and as it turned out, I set a few lines […]

We got a later start today, casting off at 9 am with 3 good guys from MN that also chartered last summer. I think they are “hooked” on lake trout fishing, since that was what we caught last year and they wanted to go after the same this time. The day was just awesome, flat […]

Fished yesterday in Bete Grise with same party as 2 days previous. They had booked 2 trips since they wanted to do a lot of fishing while here in the Copper country. I didn’t get a “total catch” photo with my camera, but we got 10 fish with the largest ones 4 to 4.5 lbs. […]

Sunday evening we left the dock at 4:15 pm and went straight out to deep water to troll for lakers, since we had tried close to the irons in the morning with no success with Wally and Terry. The coho just don’t seem to be here yet. For the evening, I had recovery nurse Doreen, […]

Wally and I fished with athlete and MTU grad Carl and his OR nurse mom and engineer dad from MN this morning, starting early and back around lunch time. I’m almost falling asleep here typing this at 9:15 pm after so little sleep the past 2 or three nights. (I’ll sleep in tomorrow to catchup) […]
