Sure, there's fishing and hunting and beautiful scenery on Lake of the Woods
But there's also something we like to call "Island Life"
The special and sometimes silly moments that help create memories that last as long or longer than those of the big fish or the brute of a bear.
Here are some of our favorite memory making images taken at or by guests of Black Island:
The August Gang- No really, they do go fishing too!
This picture was NOT taken in July, no matter how cold we thought it was then!
Leave it to the Hoffman clan to go out and catch fish..........even in a SNOW STORM!
Ron; keep this up and we're making you an honorary Minnesota or Wisconsin resident.
Man O Man, those are a couple of Beauties!
TIme to stretch the legs after a morning of fishing and have shore lunch by Chef Mike! Yummo!
The Cut
Black Island has a great swimming beach!
Or should we say "burying beach"?
It's just not a good day for Mike unless he can shoot something, catch something, or, in this case, blow something up!
Here we see Mike firing off his "cannon". Quite exciting, but bring your ear plugs!
Along the way, while fishing, head on over to Painted Rock Channel to see the petroglyphs
Ah, shorelunch, including the yummy cookies that Barb bakes and tucks in the shorelunch kit.
But what's a guy to do when he likes his cookies warm? Why, heat them over the fire on a spatula of course!
Hats off to Jim Flexman for some of the most creative cooking-engineering we've seen!
Jim, is that a PERCH?
Don't think for a minute Chelsea isn't fishing. Don't belive us? Go look at the fishing brag page! |
