In 1941 at the age of 18 Dick Watson Sr. joined the R.C.A.F. and went to serve his country. After four years of flying fighter planes and being shot down three times, he returned home in 1945 as a war hero. It was at this time that he decided to fulfill his dreams of starting a tourism business on Kabinakagami Lake using his military earnings. Dick and his wife Edna married in 1946 and together they began to build their future at Pine Portage Lodge.

As I Promised the Biggest Walleye Caught this Year So Far!!! TAKE A LOOK

Dean Kruse of Auburn, Indiana has just celebrated his 56th year with us at Pine Portage Lodge. At the age of eight years old he made his first trip with his dad Russel Kruse to Pine Portage Lodge. Until his dad's passing a few year ago they continued their yearly tradition together. Now Dean makes his memorial trip with friends and family. We always look forward to his visits, he is a great person and friend to all of us here at Pine Portage Lodge. This year he had a great catch (shown below). It was great seeing all of you again and look forward to next year.

As we promised here are the pictures of Dean Kruse with his 10# 26.5" Walleye. You can see the girth on this fish was so large that he was just able to get his hands around it. WOW!!! What a catch. He also took the picture and released this great catch for another year!!!!
