Is Fishing in Canada the Best Family Vacation? Yes!

January 9, 2017

Canadian fishing trips aren’t the same without your whole family in tow!

Many of you have asked us, is it possible to bring kids along on the trip? And our answer is, YES! Ryan Duininck and his crew had a great trip out to Larus Lake with a group of 8, including 6 “first-timers.”

Ryan told us that his trip up to Larus was outstanding. The group had 5 days of fantastic fishing, and he is confident they released 1,400+ fish. His daughter Kate, who was 12 at the time, was the only one keeping an exact count. She released 263 fish herself!

They released a couple 38″+ Northerns, as well as more than a hundred Walleyes in the 22-24″ range. Yes you read that right! In Ryan’s words, “the fishing was downright outrageous.”

Other highlights for the family included delicious shore lunches, some “hammocking” on the beach, a little swimming, a young bull moose in the front yard of the cabin, and dozens of bald eagles.

Check out Ryan’s pictures showing a few big fish, and even bigger smiles.

What a wonderful trip!
