Nice trip report - it sounds like everyone had fun. Cute kids - love the picture of your son and the fish - it's priceless!

As your story & photos show, that is such a fun area. (especially with kids along.) Some great photos too. Thanks for taking the time to share.

A 3lb smallie is nice if your his size or MY size! That island with the chalet is Gallagher's Island. I always have to get a pic or two of it. A buddy of mine used to do "Caretaking" on the island a few years ago. There are some good blueberry spots just upstream of the falls on the side opposite the portage. Enjoyed your report!

Nice report. Have been on Clove a few times. I agree the northern fishing is decent. But that smallie your son caught is a real trophy. Enjoyed your report. Jerry G
