Hi all -

Last Sunday, June 16th, around 11:30 AM, my group lost three spinning rods (no reels) that must have fallen off a trailer between the Larch Creek lot (EP #80) and the Gunflint Outfitters. One G. Loomis NRX, one Shimano Compre and one Shimano Crucial.

We had an amazing trip. I brought seven first timers including four 14 year olds. Kind of a bummer way to end it, but I figured the Gunflint community may find them.

Thanks in advance and happy paddling!

I talked to the group that found them a few days ago. We were both at the Gull Lake landing going out on Saganaga. One the tip got broke. They launched and were base camping on Saganaga and I left there this morning. I don’t know how you would get a hold of them. They were motor boaters. I’m sorry that happened to you.

not sure if the USFS would go to bat for you on this, but ask them if they'd send a note out to any party with a 55 entry permit or a J permit (day use motor) for the days starting with when you lost them.
