    Posted on Sunday November 8th, 2009 at 08:06 in Fishing, pike, northern pike, seseganaga lake

    Nov 2/2009  via email Hi, Brad & Karen, I just thought I would drop a note to tell you how much we enjoyed our fishing trip this summer. The cabin was in good shape as always & Joe stopped in for coffee about every morning to tell us ...

    Posted on Saturday September 26th, 2009 at 07:30 in Fishing, walleye, seseganaga lake

    Last weekend, Sept 18 to 20 saw some of the best weather of the summer.  The fishing was absolutely amazing.  I was at Seseganaga Lake to paint some floors and do some other odd jobs (digging outhouse holes) but couldn’t help myself fr...

    Posted on Tuesday August 11th, 2009 at 07:30 in cabins, seseganaga lake

    Every year we see many groups in the 10 to 12 man range.  The Healy/Loftus group from Minnesota numbered 13 making them our largest group for 2009.  They go to Seseganaga Lake yearly and have more fun than should be allowed.  This ye...

    “Good afternoon Brad. I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this past week at your Sesaganaga outpost.  As always this lake produces big numbers and big fish.  One goal I have for every trip is to catch a 20+lb Northern and I ...

    Phil and Andy sent the following note. “We caught several 25” walleyes this year.  Not extreme monsters but always a nice tussle on the end of your line.” Having the odd large northern latch on to your line makes a good fight too....

    Posted on Monday August 3rd, 2009 at 07:47 in Fishing, trophies, lake trout, seseganaga lake

    Atlanta is a long way from Seseganaga Lake but as Phil reports from his annual trip, these lakers are worth the travel.     “Here is the second Laker I caught.  It is a twin of the first…about a half inch difference. ...

  • Joe is ready

    Posted on Friday July 31st, 2009 at 07:03 in vacation, staff, seseganaga lake

    Joe, our camp attendant at Seseganaga, gets to fish now and then himself.  Fresh walleye for supper is a nice perk of the job.  Once he gets his work done for the day nothing beats a little R&R on the lake. He is not lonely in the bush...

  • Great trip

    Posted on Thursday July 2nd, 2009 at 06:56 in ignace outposts, seseganaga lake, father son

    The Wood party came to Seseganaga Lake in June on a first time fly in trip all the way from Florida. The group experienced some of our best weather and best fishing.  No doubt they’ll be back again.  “Hey Brad, First of all, want...

    Posted on Monday June 22nd, 2009 at 07:20 in catch and release, northern pike, seseganaga lake

    Seseganaga Lake seems to consistently turn out some nice northern pike. Jim Aslaksen can attest to that. First week of June is a regular slot for the Heston Party and with fish like this it is easy to see why their booking is held year after yea...

    Posted on Friday June 19th, 2009 at 07:13 in Fishing, lake trout, seseganaga lake

    Seseganaga Lake never lets us down.  Walleye, northern and lake trout make this a fisherman’s delight.    It may have been cooler than normal temps but the trout were hitting with gusto last week. I appreciate getting photos ...

    Spring time keeps us busy getting camps open and equipment moved but regular jobs also get done. The cabin at West Bay on Seseganaga Lake now has a new deck. Even though fishing is the reason most guys head to Seseganaga, one of the best cons...

    Don from Iowa was at Seseganaga lake last week with a few buddies.  Fishing of course is a main event at an outpost camp, but a sampling of Don’s photos from the week show many reasons to make an Ignace Outpost vacation. Keep in mind ...

    Posted on Wednesday June 3rd, 2009 at 07:22 in weather, the work, seseganaga lake

    The water levels here keep us guessing.  After relatively high early ice out water levels, we’ve had a great deal of rain.  Not only rain but cool temps for this time of year. Many of our docks are again under water.  At Se...

    Our 2009 season is beginning I am finding out I am not the only one thinking fishing.  As we train pilots and other staff for the summer, fishing is also on my mind.  Today as I was getting boats ready and a cabin cleaned at Irene Lake, I...

    We have several species of fish in the lakes we operate on. Most of our guests look primarily for walleyes to eat and northern for the fight. One of my favorites which fights like a mule and tastes great is Lake Trout.Lake trout require cold, clear, ...

    Posted on Sunday October 12th, 2008 at 07:41 in the work, seseganaga lake

    Posted on Friday October 10th, 2008 at 07:38 in the work, seseganaga lake

    At two of our outpost camps we have camp attendants. Joe our camp attendant at Seseganaga Lake was caught doing his laundry on his cabin deck. When you spend the summer "in the bush" you make do without some of our modern conveniences. Joe has a r...

    Posted on Thursday October 9th, 2008 at 07:30 in the work, ignace outposts, seseganaga lake

    This July we saw some of the highest water levels we've seen in years. At Seseganaga Lake, Joe filled barrels with water to help hold the dock decks down so they wouldn't float away.Water levels have since receded to the point that the docks are now...

    About 20 years ago this was one of our finest cabins. Today it is a shed. For those who may not recognize this cabin, it is on Seseganaga Lake. It is the old cabin 2. In its day, it was state of the art. It was one big room, 8 beds in the back h...
