Memorable Day at Paguchi

 

Bobby Jones and his three amigos had a memorable day on Paguchi a week ago.  Folks that have fished the lakes around our resort for years have always gone to Paguchi for Lake Trout and Northern Pike fishing.  It looks like that has changed for now.  Someone caught a 35 inch Walleye there and posted it in the Ignace newspaper a few years ago.  Word got out that there were walleye in Paguchi and it became a very busy fishing spot for locals and non residents alike.  Since the boat landing only holds about four boats and trailers, you now see vehicles and trailers parked along both sides of the road beside the entry road to Paguchi.  

Bobby and his group knew there were Walleye spots in Paguchi and using their electronics, they endeavored to find them.  They caught a few but then decided to turn off all electronics and ask their Heavenly Father to put them on a good Walleye spot.  They drifted quite a ways and all of a sudden began catching a few.  They stopped and still fished.  That's when they began catching one after another as soon as their bait would plop in the water.  

Bobby took these pictures and later told me that between him and his buddy Bob Farar, they caught 200 Walleye.  Now that's fun fishing.
