Our third annual trip to the Wingiskus Outpost starts on Tuesday, May 30th. The year previous to that was at the Bee Lake Outpost. To say we’re excited, once again, is an understatement! The cabin is first rate. The fishing is almost machine like. Halley’s run a first rate operation and we hope to be trekking around “Halley’s Country” for years to come!

My fishing party is booked at Wingiskus in late July - this will be my 10th year with Outpost. I’ve fished and stayed at Bee and fished Wingiskus each time but this will be my first at the camp. We have always done well around the big ricks and islands. I’ve never fished Rickaby - is it any good? Any fishing tips? Hope you had a good trip.

After talking about going on a trip to an outpost for over 10 years we finally booked a trip to Long Lake last year. I can’t say enough what an absolutely great time it was. It was even better then I had imagined over all the years. Like some one else mentioned - Halley’s run a first rate operation - is the truth. We couldn’t have had a better time or service. The Halley’s and there staff where great. We will definitely be going back again!

We are taking our first trip to an outpost and are going to Bee Lake. We are more than a little excited and count the days. Any advice for first time visitors to Bee?

Just got home from a week of fishing at Dowswell Lake. Had a great trip. Caught three trophy Smallmouth bass, hundreds of Walleyes, some nice pike and many good size Snallmouth Bass. Bait was the ticket for Walleyes while Kinami worms in a variety of colors fsihed wacky worm style killed the Smallmouth. As usual the Pike hit everything including top water plugs. We also saw several Moose and some Bald Eagles. We are already planning next years trip.

We have a party of 6 going to Chase lake the last week of June and this is our 5th year and the fishing has been to say the least fantastic. We average 1000 - 1200 walleyes for the week that we are there. My personal best was 118 walleyes in a day. Northern and Smallmouth fishing is also good. Halleys run a first rate outpost cabin business, friendly staff, when there is a problem always take care of them with a smile. I have been to other outposts and NONE compare to Halleys.

I’m planning a trip to Sharpstone in late June 2007. This will be my first trip to an outpost. Any tips on supplies and tackle from anyone will be appreciated.

Just booked another spring outpost trip to Salveson for 2007. If this is your first outpost trip you will be spoiled with Halley’s. A top notch camp with great service and attention to detail.

We have booked Trapline Lake for July 2007. Would like to hear from anyone that has been there before for any tips or suggestions.
This is our second trip with the Outpost. Great people!

We have gone a few years with the outpost and love it every time. The service of Gene and his group is great. This year we went to Trapline and the Walleye were great, quiet a few over 25 inches and one that was 31″. It was really hot a few days but we went swimming and played baggo. I suggest going on the portage up to the Northern lake as the Northern were hitting like crazy, and fast. Ok size, but the aggressiveness made up for that. Cant wait till next year for our ninth trip!

“First of all, we just want to say what a fantastic fishing
trip my son Joey and I had fishing Trapline and Margot lakes this past
summer. I haven’t had the time to thank you but of all the fishing trips
we’ve taken this one overall was the best. We’d like to do it again
next summer…. The only thing we didn’t get this summer is photos because
I got the camera wet, so we just have to do it again next year. If
there is any way to try lake trout fishing for one day with a guide we
would like to give that a shot also. Looking forward to hearing from
you.

Just booked my first trip with Halleys to Bee lake next August. We have ben to a handfull of other outposts, but havent gone with Halleys yet. We are in search of big smallies with Northern, Trout, and Walleyes to keep us busy while the bass are slow. If anyone can lend some good comments about Bee lake I would love to hear them. We cant wait!!
