Yellow Flowers







Summer is here. Warm weather, thunderstorms and summer foliage. We are attaching pictures of three different yellow flowers that we are finding out at Oak Point area. They are Black-Eyed Susans, Goldenrods and Woodland Sunflowers. With the timely rains that we have been having this summer the vegetation is lush. That means weekly mowing of the yards that are usually drying up by now.

Another sure sign that the fishing is back on Leech Lake is the presences of "launches". These are the commercial fishing boats that take tourist from Walker out to angle for Walleyes on the "big" lake. For a number of years we had not seen any, but this summer they are back. Launches furnish the boat/driver guide, the bait and can be used for a half or full days charter. Those fishing with their own boats often follow the launches and imitate what they are doing.
