Potatoes Cleared for Crossing Border

Joel Prunty, media manager - When you drive across the Canadian border this summer on your fishing adventure you will not see a dumpster full of potatoes. It was always unclear as to the risk potatoes posed, but we have been notified by NOTO (Northern Ontario Tourist Outfitters’ Association) that this summer American guests will NOT have to leave their potatoes at the border, nor register them when they come to fish in Canada.
Here are the conditions by which potatoes may cross the Canadian border:
* Guests are limited to 10 lbs or less per person
* Potatoes must be commercially packaged (in the original package from the store) and the potatoes should be US grade No. 1.

We have confirmed this through discussions with the Fort Frances border crossing (Canadian Border Services Agency CBSA) as well as the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA).
Enjoy that shorelunch with the potatoes of your choice!

Wolf River Expo

By: Steve Cegielski, Operations Manager
Shows are finally done for another year. I know your thinking, haven’t All-Canada Shows been done for months? Yes, but that doesn’t mean my show schedule ended. A sister company to All-Canada Show was created a few years ago….Wolf River Expo. Wolf River Expo provides booths, tables, and chairs to other events after our busy All-Canada Show circuit is complete. I’ve been in show mode from January 1st until the middle of May. I now look at the show season as being 21 shows long. Yes, I’m glad to be done. The equipment can now assume its summer resting position in the warehouse, and I can get on with other summer tasks around the office, and warehouse.

Wolf River Expo provides high quality equipment, prompt service and competitive pricing. Check out our website if we can help organize any event in the future http://www.wolfriverexpo.com/.

Events completed just in time to plan my Canadian excursion for this summer. Hope to see you heading north this summer.

Road Trip!

By Rodney Schlafer All-Canada Show - Show Director Last week I took a road trip across Northwestern Ontario. I was able to visit over 60 camps and attended parties for the Kenora District Camp Association (KDCA) in Vermilion Bay and the annual Sportsmen Dinner put on by the Red Lake Publicity Board. Both events were well attended and a good time was had by all. The highlight of the trip was fishing with Bill Pryndik, and I was able to land a 38” pike in the pouring rain.

Here are a few pictures from my trip


Evie Hartle – Big Hook Wilderness Camps, Karla Clark - Clarks Camps, and Marilyn, Bilsbarrow at KDCA meeting Vermilion Bay, Ontario.

Wet Week in Northwest Ontario

Joel Prunty, media manager – Just when operators in Northwest Ontario were worried about dangerous fire conditions across the region a week of rain has diminished the risk. Up until now the spring had been very dry and the province had been fighting scattered fires in April.

Overall water levels in Northwest Ontario have been low as well and the precipitation should set the stage for a terrific walleye opener May 15th. Bill Pryndik at Golden Hook Camp near Red Lake has had pike fisherman in camp already and indicated things are really picking up with fish in the 40 inch range being caught.

The All-Canada Show’s Rod Schlafer stayed with them last Saturday and he and Bill found some time to do some casting. Several pike in the 36 to 38 inch range were caught – the first fish of the year for the All-Canada team!

Can’t wait to get started myself!

Take a Kid Hunting

By: Steve Cegielski, All Canada Show - Operations Manager




We all need to involve kids in our outdoor passions. It's a proven fact that kids not introduced to the outdoor world of hunting and fishing will never develop a love for the sport.
I had a great chance this spring to take my boys Ben and Max turkey hunting like we do every spring. I just like to enjoy the spring mornings with the boys in the woods, and sometimes we get lucky and harvest a turkey.
I followed up that great day in the turkey woods with my boys with a following weekend turkey adventure with the Pelisek boys, Alex and Andrew. Alex held the gun this time, and Andrew got to see his big brother's turkey hunt all unfold from the camo tent. Awesome.... I know I personally have inflicted the hunting disease on all four boys for a lifetime of adventures.
Get your kids involved in your fishing and hunting Canadian trips. How about a grandkid tagging along on a Canadian bear hunt, or showing your kids the thill of enjoying a day fishing on a Canadian Lake....walleyes until their arms are tired.

Amazing Sunsets are common in Canada

By: Jennifer Young, All-Canada Show owner

Taking a photo cannot compare to being there. Many times when I have been in Canada on a gorgeous night, with the sun setting into the water, I grab my camera to campture the moment. It seems like the lense isn't big enough to put all of the color and emotion into the final photo.

I love this picture. I believe it was taken off of the dock at Golden Hook Camp on Gullrock Lake in Ontario. Jeff and I brought the kids up there with some friends, and we had a great time all week.

Another favorite sunset was from my trip to the Arctic, Plummer's Lodge. We were at Trophy Lodge on Great Bear Lake. Looking at the image, I can hear the water lapping against the shore. In the arctic, the sunrise was only an hour after sunset, so you have lots of chances to see the beauty.

This picture was taken by John Cleveland from Eppinger. Thanks for sharing.
