Imagine my surprise when I opened the office door at 8am and there they were. The Fishermen who went on a charter fishing trip yesterday were out on the front lawn bagging up their bounty. There were big hunks of delicious looking Salmon all over the table and chairs. They had big smiles on their faces and the garden hose in hand when one of them said "don't worry, we will clean up any mess".
Everyone was in awe over all the fresh hunks of Salmon everywhere. Guests were asking me where they could go get some fresh or smoked fish. I sent them to the Port City Smokehouse in Frankfort.
Mike and John, our fun loving repeat fishermen in room #5 were just getting their boat ready to go Salmon Fishing on Lake Michigan that morning. Their mouths were watering, they couldn't wait to get out there. They also did well that day and took home a nice bag of frozen fish a couple of days later.
Walleye are yummi too
There are plenty of Walleye in Big Platte Lake and Bob and Bruce are catching them. I found these guys in my fridge again this morning. And thanks to Wanda who doesn't mind touching them, we have a nice clear picture of these walleye posted here today.
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service was here again.
Their mission is to research and control the Sea Lamprey to protect our fish population. John says "We stay at the Honor Motel because we like it here and it is conveniently located to all the places we need to be". We love these guys not only for the work they do, but also because they usually need multiple rooms for several nights :).
