North Island Lodge Report: July 27, 2007

Many thanks go out to Todd McIntyre and Randy Lee for their wonderful performance during my absence, great job gentlemen! It was certainly an honor to be the guest Manager at the Outpost Lodge....Lisa you really have created a very special Lodge that is representative of your passion and enthusiasm to always exceed your guests expectations!

The always fun and entertaining Jon Anderson group started the weekend with a bang as Tyee pins were awarded to Ryan Lee Lester for his 45.5 # silver beauty, Bob Martin 37.5 #’s, Tom Hastings 35 #’s, and Jon Anderson 30 #’s. Halibut fishing continues to be strong as Allen Young brought home a 215 # monster, Hank Young 89 #’s and Rudolfo Lanuza 85 #’s…. the group caught 64 Coho in the range of 8#’s to 12#’s.

We are now just pasted the halfway mark of the 2007 season and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our hard working staff for their support and the outstanding service they have provided to our guests...many thanks go out to our Hotel Staff - Executive Chef Walter, Poyan, Kelly, Robyn, Roxanne and Sarah; Dock Crew – Dock Manager Merideth and Tyson and our Guides - Head Guide DJ, Maddog, Gunner, Cuda, Biggins, Dave, Kuiama, Chris, Kauri and Jordan…also a special thank you to our Head Office, Meet & Greet and Sales Teams….last but not least let us not forget the Salmon, the real stars of the show, for their contribution to a very successful first half!
