Romanowski, Riopelle and Homemade Wine!

We were introduced to the admiral's slut boat and the unique homemade wine of Mac and Maldorf. We also learned that Marc Riopelle loves the game of poker and Andy Romanowski caught his first fish in more than 20 years.

As we discovered on our first visit to Laurentian View Resort, the area has excellent fishing. One our favourite spots to fish, La Riviere Noir, was closed to fishing until the end of June because it is a fish spawning area. Too bad because a few of us caught some dandies back there. With fishing not permitted, we still took a cruise up the river.

Fishermen on the trip included Phil Anderson, Curt Bowles, Tony DeFazio, Al Heaney, Billy Hum, Warren Kidd, Al Macintyre, Ron Malloff, Ron Zinn. plus, Ron's brother-in-law, Marc Riopelle and newcomer, Andy Romanowski.
