POLAR BEAR GUESTIMONIALS
We would like to thank everyone for the great notes. Keep 'em coming! We read them on our slow days to remind us why we try so hard to keep our camps in order, our fishing resources well-managed and our whole operation in top shape. The old Guest Book has become a thing of the past but we keep it handy. We'd love for you to send us your fly-in fishing fond memories. We'll get them up on the web sites somewhere in a hurry. Tell us like it is because we want to keep doing things better each year. Our entire crew appreciates that you understand the work involved in giving you some of the best Fly-in Fishing, Moose Hunting and Bear Hunting trips in Canada.
We had a great time at Chappa back in June, caught lots of fish. On the first day we went over to find i-Fred and fished the beaver pond, thinking it was what we were looking for only caught a couple of northerns.
Billy docked for our mid-week flight check on Wednesday and told us that that lake wasn't any bigger then one of his appendages. We went to the wrong place. A little hesitant, we went back that afternoon to the real ifred Lake and caught over 100 walleye with the largest one in the boat at 27 inches. We also caught several Northerns with the largest being around 32 inches. The fishing slowed down a little on both lakes, but we still figure the five of us caught 300 to 400 fish for the week.
Hello, Billy! On a whim, I looked up your name and found your web site. I'm thrilled to see you're still up and running. You really should have a picture of the Beaver on your website. I think it was my fondest memory of my trips and, I think, the icon of what Polar Bear Outfitters was all about.
While I realize the flyin fishing trips I took ( Skip, Ted, Corky and me from Buffalo in 1992 and 1994 ) are a distant memory to you, I will always remember them as being 2 of the best vacations I've ever taken. To this day, I recall catching 140 fish, downing 19 cases of beer and bottles of gin, surviving the big storm, seeing the moose and the caribou, crossing the 4 beaver dams to the 4th lake, etc. etc. OK, maybe you will remember us.
Unfortunately, all of my pics are of the film variety, otherwise, I'd send a few to add to your collection. I have long since moved to Atlanta, but I recently suggested the guys get together to take another trip into the Great White North. I guess we'll see. I am sending one of me with a stripped bass from Lake Lanier, here in Georgia. No, I don't expect you to post it on your web site.
Thanks for the memories! Here's to you!
