Yesterday was a bumper day for bass, everyone who were out for the opening came back to Highland  View Resort with their limit. Some of the fish caught were just awesome, several over 5 pounds there was one small mouth bass that was just striking it’s  colours were striking I wanted to weigh it but everyone was so excited all they wanted to do was show it off to the whole family and anyone else that was interested or not. Who wouldn’t be impressed , I know I was.

Today I’m going to have my camera handy because I don’t have a picture to prove that it was a fantastic opener. This is one from last year and some that came in yesterday were even larger but this one is an example of some that came in. There were a great deal that were caught and released and some that went right into the Frying pan.

We are now into summer and it time to plan for that summer vacation. Booking early assures that you will get the best price and the days that you want. If these two days are going to be the precursors of this years weather the country is where you want to be. The kids will enjoy the activities and the fun of being next to nature.

The breeze is cool even though the the sun is beating down, the cool breeze from the lake is soothing especially if you are under the shade a tree, or taking a dip in the pool.

If you are into bass fishing this weekend Bass season opens. There are biting and many anglers are chafing at the bit to get out there and catch a a few hogs. We still have a couple of cottages open for the opening. Give us a call or check us out on the web www.highlandview.com .

Reports that have been coming in is that even though folks are after pan fish and walleye the bass are hitting on anything out there that is moving. The most used comment is ” it was huge and I had to throw it back”  or “I was using wax worms and I caught this monster bass which I had to throw back”.

Don’t miss out on this seasons opener. It’s not too late to make a reservation.

What a beautiful morning to celebrate Fathers Day. Enjoy it to the most.

There is just a couple of days left and the Second Annual Rice Lake Fishing Festival will be history. Take advantage of the last weekend and catch the great price and perhaps one of the fantastic prizes.

The turtles have been digging up up a storm and leaving their eggs in the most bizarre areas. The pool is one of their favorite areas to take a swim and wash off I guess.

The flowers have blossomed early and they have been beautiful,  and early this year. The flowering Crab trees were so full of blossoms of pink, red and white that the ground was carpeted with the colorful petals when they finally fell. The apple trees blossomed early but I think that the crop will fall short because of the early frost. An now the Iris and Peonies  are in their last days of splendor.
