Going to Perrault lake on Saturday.....does anyone have any reports? Any idea when the mayfly hatch may occur? Thanks for any information you can share.

Perreault lake
Bert, we did very well at the sandbar. I think our best night was 32 walleyes and averaged 18 per night. Didn't keep a one. Caught the perch in Spadina/Rainy Lake. Lot's of boats in there so the perch took a beating. We didn't keep any perch under 10"; had a blast. We remember fishing that year with you guys. Take care.
Had a super week at Rocky Shores Lodge. Chris and Mike are tremendous hosts. Comfortable cabins, boats and up to date fishing reports. Our group of 4 caught just under 800 fish per boat. About 200 walleyes for our boat, the rest, largely perch. Never kept a perch under 10" and for the group, we brought home 103 and caught a ton of 9.75" perch. Hope we find some of them next year. Biggest walleye was 27" with several between 18 and 22". Kept our limit of 17" fish. Also had an 18" smallie and 2, 35" northerns that were all released. Kept 5 under 17" to pickle; hope they turn out. Give this lake and the Lodge a chance; you'll be glad you did.
Any fishing reports to pass along. Will be leaving for Rocky Shores Lodge on the evening of the 24th and can't wait. Plan on guiding my boat mate to a large walleye so I can offer my impeccable netting skills. Looking forward to the Rick and Slick Show as well. Any word on crappies or jumbo perch?Thanks
RC, I believe the fella you're referring to is GreyGhost, the famous Canadian trapper. Will be sure to look you up when we get there; could use some tips on catching the walleyes. I hear they don't bite until after 9. Looking forward to the trip but would love to see some fishing reports.
