I'm going in next Thursday (May 17). Ice should definitely be gone by then..
I'm trying to decide between Seagull and Alpine. I will go in at the Seagull dock and paddle towards Alpine. If I stay on Seagull, I won't have any portages. As for fishing, I should be able to catch a bunch of lakers on Seagull. I can always portage over to Alpine and fish.
But if I go to Alpine and basecamp there, I should be able to catch more walleye, pike and smallies....
What do you guys think? Based solely on fishing, should I basecamp on Seagull or Alpine?

you'll catch more pike-smallies & lakers of course in seagull , being early season the walleyes maybe easier to find at jasper falls than on seagull but i believe seagull still holds a bigger population of walleyes.
keep your line wet, good things will happen

Big Slimers at Jasper Falls this time of year. 1997 my buddy Tom Gust caught a ( I landed it) caught a 50.25" Northern there for Opener- 2nd cast. Lost the pic and no longer hang with Tom Gust. So you will have to believe me. Had very few teeth left and moss/algae growing on the side of it.
The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.

WhiteWolf: "ya the whole food chain will be going on at that base of those falls , we and others have also caught some 40" pike out of jasper , it seems like one doesnt catch many but there true trophies when you do.shock: "you'll catch more pike-smallies & lakers of course in seagull , being early season the walleyes maybe easier to find at jasper falls than on seagull but i believe seagull still holds a bigger population of walleyes."
