The Walleyes are Snappin on Lake of the Woods

Welcome to another addition of the Wigwam Fisherman’s Blog. I want to start off by wishing everyone a very Happy New Year from the Wigwam Resort and Lake of the Woods! A quick thank you to Lynch Livestock, they just left us this morning, but they showed us a ton of respect during their stay, and for that I want to thank them a million times over. I’m sorry I’ve been absent from the blog, but the fishing report videos have consumed a ton of my time. I just recently purchased a new computer, which should help cut down on the time it takes to produce the videos. By doing this it should free me up to start writing again, I truly miss it.

This past weekend I had the opportunity to work the Iowa Sport Show in Des Moines, IA.Friday and Sunday were a little slower than I’d like to see, but on Saturday when the American Pickers from the History Channel were on the stage, the Iowa State Fairgrounds were full of life and excitement! While in Des Moines I was able to introduce Lake of the Woods to a number of very interested parties, and we look forward to showing everyone that has booked a trip for this winter and next summer our fantastic and tremendous fishery. Thanks again to Twin Rivers Media (Iowa Sportsman and Family Fish & Game Magazines) for putting on the great event, we’ll see you next year.I am very happy to announce that the Wigwam Resort Blizzard Bash/Ice Fishing Expo 2011 will be on January 29, 2011. For anyone that is interested in coming and participating, please checkout our website home page for detailed information. We currently have Strike Master, Frabill, MarCum, Wilcraft, Northland Tackle, Outdoors Again, Lucky Bait and a few others participating in the 1st Annual Blizzard Bash/Ice Fishing Expo, which will be held right in front of the Wigwam Resort on the ice under a tent.

Brian “Bro” Brosdahl, who is arguably the most recognizable ice fishing name and face in the industry will be here demonstrating product and guest speaking. James Holst from In-Depth Outdoors will also be here participating in the same facet. The product demonstrations will commence at 10 AM and go till 5 PM. We will also be having a Tip Up Derby right in the Wigwam Bay from 12 PM – 3 PM. $5 per hole, so bring your whole family, the wife and the kids. We will be having a number of kid games and giving away door prizes throughout the day, especially to the kids. “All” the proceeds from the fishing derby will go to Fishing For Knowledge, which educates 4th, 5th and 6th graders from across the great State of Minnesota about ice fishing, even right here in Baudette. We will also be giving away a Frabill 2 man portable, MarCum sonar and a Strike Master auger to the winner of the “Ice Fishing Set-Up Race”. Come check out all the excitement and be a participant of an event that will hopefully be a cornerstone on Lake of the Woods and in the community for many years to come!

Quote of the Day: “Happiness depends more on the inward disposition of mind than on outward circumstances.” -
Benjamin Franklin. Once again, one of our founding fathers puts it all into perspective for us. I would have to say that I personally try to live by this quote. It has given me a great opportunity to truly do something that I love to do, all by controlling the inward disposition of my mind. Happiness is truly the way, and I hope that each and every one of you finds your own inner happiness, and let that dictate your mood…God Bless.

My shout out today will go to all the boys from Lynch Livestock…Kevin, Mitch, Shooter, Lee and crew. Thank you all for the opportunity to have you as our guests at the Wigwam Resort on the Worlds Best Hard Water Fishery, Lake of the Woods. I thourouly enjoyed talking with each and everyone of your crew. I especially appreciated the way your collective group treated our staff, always with curtusouy and respect, and that will never go overlooked. The entire staff is looking forward to your groups return next year.

Happy Fishing to all, and to all a good day!
