Very nice! Pike like that keep me returning to Canada, year after year!
Deadlines and commitments, what to leave in, what to leave out...

Nice trip, your pictures have me fired up! We're going in another 2 weeks, flying in to Makokibatan lake on the Albany river. Been many years since I've fished northern Ontario and the first time it isn't a DIY trip.

Lake Salvesten. Had it all to ourselves. Got dropped off for 4 days of fishing. Caught so many Pike my hands were cramping up. We never went 15 minutes without catching something. Smallmouth up North look different than what we have in Virginia. The mouths are actually small. Shaped more like a really big/thick bluegill. Maybe the ones I'm use to have some large mouth in them. Ontario has a trophy fish program, we caught 6. 5 Pike and a smallmouth. I think we even caught some yellow chain pickerel in a set of rapids. Need to research that.
Another question. We swear we heard a Elk bugle. What could that have been? A really lost bull Elk?

There are elk in SW Manitoba that get over as far as lake of the woods and often cross down into Minnesota but I’m not sure they would get where you were. Maybe? Osky
