Let the 2012 Season Begin!

Jessica — Mon, 14 May 2012 13:30:03 +0000

Our staff arrived yesterday eager to start the season. +28 today…we could’t ask for better conditions. Can’t wait for our first guests to arrive this Friday!

Are we “open” yet?

With the ice gone well before our usual time we are anxious to get things started. The re-opening can not come soon enough for our Eagle Nest Crew. Sunny days and mild temperatures have got us thinking “spring fishing” well before opening day, May 12th of this year. Tight lines and good laughs will come soon!

Virtual Derby Ready for Action

The wait is finally over. Thank you all for you patience. Please click on the link below to play our online fishing game. With big fish and constant action, it’s great practice for your 2012 trip. Catch 1 fish of each species to contribute to your score. The person with the highest number of inches at the end of each month wins a free fishing licence. So take the challenge and test your luck.

Fishing fever

Hi folks, we are expecting our virtual derby to be up and running again soon. As you all know, we need the practice before the waters open up again in 2012. We had to upgrade our web site with more current hardware, and the derby as in fishing, ran into a snag. Catch you later….Fred

Dear Fred, Jo-Anne and Eagle Nest Lodge Staff,

On behalf of BASF Canada, I would like to personally thank you for another excellent job hosting BASF, our customers from Richardson International and their sons at your fantastic resort!

The expectations of our annual event are always set high and your lodge and staff never fail to deliver above and beyond the call of duty. This year (like every year) the fishing, meals, lodging, transportation, service and hospitality were once again “top-notch” and the BASF staff along with our Richardson International guests and their sons enjoyed every minute of it!

Thanks again for an excellent experience at Eagle Nest Resort!

Wishing you a safe and successful 2010 season!

Best regards,
Steve Manning

Hello Fred and Joanne,
Cathy and I wanted to write you a thank you letter. As you know we’d planned this trip for two years. I had watched TV shows about Canadian fishing and how good it was. Well, ya’lls fishing exceeded my expectations. It was fantastic. I liked the secludedness too! The staff and guides were terrific. I left a lot of stress to relax at your place and it was just what the doctor ordered.

I wanted to give a special thanks to Pat Bancroft, our guide. He showed us some of the natural beauties of your land. (Crow Duck Falls and many more) Shore lunch was great!

I’m enclosing a couple of pictures. My favorite is the one where I fished off of the rocks outside my cabin. It looks as if there’s no one else on the planet just me and the river.

Thanks again for our most memorable vacation.

See you again in the future

Doug & Cathy

I just wanted to let you know again what a great time we had at Eagle Nest. The staff went above and beyond to see that we were taken care of and I trust we weren’t too much of a problem I hope. The cake and wine on our anniversary was a very nice touch. One thing I did seem to have snuck out on was a six pack of Budweiser I ordered on Wed. night the 23rd. If you would reply with a price I will send it to you. keep me on the list for June and I will be in touch in Dec. Also if you could send me some info on your bear hunts. Thanks again Jeff Jones and family.

PS feel free to use me as a reference

Fred and Jo-Anne

We will be back for sure – It is a great place with great people and we really appreciate that. It is not hard to refer when a business has such a great standard and value system for their customers. I hope the summer goes well for you.

Dear Fred and Jo-Anne,
We arrived back in Missouri tired but happy to have experienced one of our best trips in 16 years. You were right about the bass being just right, as evidenced by all the M.A. smallmouth we “hung” on your big fish chart. Believe me, it was almost embarrassing to post SEVEN smallmouth over 18 inches myself, five in one day.

Our guides – Peterson and Juan – were excellent, as I told you. Peterson is young and eager and learning about fishing; his boat-handling skills are superb. Juan is a true expert smallmouth fisherman, showing an old dog (me!) some new tricks. We “pioneered” Crow Duck Creek and Falls again this year, with the help of rising water that enabled us to get over the beaver dams and reach the hotspot. What an area!

We should have some good photos and I’ll send them slong soon. Thanks for your good hospitality and excellent food. My only suggested improvement would be in the mattress area. A couple of the ones we had deserve cremation and a proper scattering of the ashes in some sacred place deserving of being the repository of thousands of hours of dreams about lunker smallmouth! Have a good summer and we’ll see you on June 6, 2008

Sincerely,
John Stanard
