Gord finds it a bit odd, but it really is possible to get tired of catching walleyes, pike and trout. I find it really relaxing to break up the week spending part of a day fishing perch. As the perchmaster has demonstrated, one can rack up impressive numbers in the spring. Its a bit more challenging in August, but there are plenty of perch to be had. One can simply lay back, in this case, on the floor, and enjoy the view of Gord filleting perch. Don’t let his grumpy demeanor fool you. He really enjoys the task.
Billy was a bit agitated by the finicky perch and got a little hot under the collar. He ended up stripping down to his boxer shorts. Gord….there seems to be a recent theme here? You might notice the hernia that looks like Bill’s right arm. His wife allowed him to make the trip but insisted he couldn’t catch any big fish. Perch seemed like just the ticket.
I think the Professor is going to hit the walleyes hard but if his luck doesn’t change, urge him to give the perch a try, or just tell him to put on a happy face. When the Professor puts on a heavy layer of sun tan lotion, he often takes on this appearance. We need to find an appropriate hat to replace that Tilly hat.
On behalf of the Boyes Group, I would like to pass on our sincere thanks for hosting the Muskie Madness Week and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at VBL and had a great time!! This was our 7th year on Eagle Lake and we have stayed at a few other lodges but VBL takes the cake hands down! You can definitely count us in for next year. I’m happy to see you post some of my pics, they turned out well. Thanks again Gord for a wonderful week of fishing and your stellar hospitality, you run a first class operation, we look forward to seeing you next year!
