Fishing Trip 2018 – McLeister Lake
From August 4th – 9th we went to McLeister Lake after flying out of Hearst. When on the lake we spent most our time trolling the south portion of the main lake, which was where the fish were. We explored several miles of the river with Tim and Jeff being brave enough one day to go for a solo exploration of a few more miles of the river system – always remember to turn left.
