Oh ok, I have heard of Sowden Lake lodge, ad when I mentioned it to Dad he remembers checking out Raven Lake lodge a few years ago for prices. From what he remembrs they were fairly pricey. But then again you take what you can get that time of year. Many places close right up after the first week.
12a has some nice spots. We used to hunt it when we stayed closer to Atikokan.

Good stuff. Do you have any pics of the moose. Is there more to the story? did you call him out or were you just in the right spot at the right time? Big small? Didd you see any others?
We really found they wern't comming to the call at all. Which was a bit frustrating. Usualy we can manage to atleast get a responce or 2. How many were hunting with you?
