June 2017 Jigging Lake Trout

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment Jun 19 0

Welcome back to the next adventure with the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman on beautiful Lake of the Woods. We must thank each and every one of you that makes this life possible for this humble outdoorsman.

I’ve been waiting almost a year to get back and chase those amazing Lake of the Woods Lake Trout on the open water and it didn’t disappoint. A new tube presentation, provided to me by a great friend in Colorado, Bernie Keefe, along with a slow tolling technique has put some incredible trout in the boat for me this summer already, and the summer has only started.

Thank you again for watching and as always, Happy Fishing and God Bless.

June 2017 Early Summer Walleye

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment Jun 19 0

Welcome back to another adventure with the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman on the Walleye Capital of the World. We must say thank to everyone that has given us this opportunity to live this life, it’s a blessing everyday and we do not forget that.

I had the honor of fishing for some Walleyes with a father and two of his sons. It was an epic Walleye adventure for Dan and his boys, one that memories are made of. I tell everyone I meet that I would give anything to go fishing with my father again, so it’s an honor to share in on the interaction between father and son in the boat.

The Walleye fishing was fantastic as it is most June days on Lake of the Woods. Enjoy the adventure, and Happy Fathers Day to all the fathers out there.

I dedicate this to my father (Curtis Norman Tessier August 12, 1947 – February 9, 2006)…I wish I had just one more day with you, I’d take you fishing.

Happy Fishing and God Bless…

April 2017 Rainey River Sturgeon

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment May 1 0

Welcome back to another adventure with the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman and friends. With the muddy river conditions the target species has changed from the Walleye to the Sturgeon. We hope you enjoy our afternoon adventure.

A few great friends and I headed out to prospect the bite…we found a few giants, but the best is yet to come. We had anywhere from 5-8 ounces for sinkers with a circle hook and a gob of juicy crawlers. This was just another fantastic experience with some great friends on our amazing fishery, Lake of the Woods and Rainey River.

Happy Fishing and God Bless…

March 2017 Rainey River Walleye

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment May 1 0

Welcome back to another adventure with the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman. This spring I’ve had the pleasure of sharing a couple days on the Rainey River with a few great friends, and the fishing didn’t disappoint.

The river has just in the last few days muddied up a bit, so the Walleye fishing has slowed down. So I’m very thankful to have had the chance to fish the cleaner water before it started to get dirty with inlet runoff. It should clean up a bit before the end of the Walleye fishing season on April 14th.

Happy Fishing and God Bless!

Afternoon Date with the Wife

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment May 1 0

Welcome back to beautiful Lake of the Woods and another adventure with the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman. We must thank all of you who have given us this opportunity to live this life…THANK YOU!

In this short afternoon “date night” get away, Jody and I have another fabulous time exploring our tremendous backyard. We headed up the Snowmobile trail and picked a spot in 22′ of water, East of Garden Island, hoping to get the evening bite. The Walleyes, Saugers and a big Jumbo Perch showed themselves to be hungry for the shiners we fed them.

We hope you enjoy, and as always, thanks for watching…Happy Fishing and God Bless.

Troutin in 40 Below

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment May 1 0

Welcome back to the greatest place on earth, Lake of the Woods. Thank you to everyone that has given us the opportunity to live our lives as we do. With that said, what does the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman do on his day off…he goes Troutin with his friends.

The temperatures dipped to 40 below zero and the wind gusts exceeded 40 MPH, but the Clam Vista Hub did it’s job and kept us warm as peas in a pod.

We hope you enjoy this humble fisherman’s day off…

Happy Fishing and God Bless

Ice Fishing Scouting Walleyes December 2016

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment Jan 5 0

Merry Christmas from beautiful Lake of the Woods! Jody and I would like to thank everyone that has supported our humble little business over the past year. It’s because of you that we have the opportunity at this tremendous life in the greatest place on earth.

Fishing has been pretty darn good for the start of our 2016 -2017 ice fishing season. Anglers have been catching fish consistently from the 22 – 27 foot range. The smaller presentation has been better, pink and gold is the ticket.

We hope you enjoy our adventures on our incredible back yard, Lake of the Woods.

Happy Fishing and God Bless…

Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman First Ice 2016

By Jean-Paul Tessier Leave a Comment Jan 5 0

Welcome back to the next episode of the Lake of the Woods Outdoorsman. Ice Fishing is back on Lake of the Woods and this French-Swede is ready to chase those fish down all winter long!

This Fall we had one of the best emerald shiner runs in years, into the Rainy River, which has brought back the big schools of fish to the Baudette area of Lake of the Woods.

In our first adventure of the season, Jody put on a clinic and showed this humble outdoorsman how to catch Walleyes through the ice, as if I had forgotten. It was great to see the bite pick up from what we’ve experienced in our area the last few years.

The best bite has been in the 18-22′ range…plenty of BIG Walleyes are being wrestled with also. We look forward to seeing you up here this winter to share in the next Lake of the Woods adventure.

Happy Fishing and God Bless…
