Bertie Boat Club has a great sense of community 🎣☀️

Bertie Boat Club has a great sense of community 🎣☀️

A few weeks ago, the club hosted its annual Walleye Tournament. Mother Nature had other plans, so the tournament was pushed back a day, but thankfully the weather cooperated and the event went ahead.

One of my favourite traditions is what happens after the tournament.

Many of the anglers generously donate their catch back to the club, and an incredible group of volunteers transforms it into one of the best fish fries of the summer.

Whether you like your walleye deep fried or blackened, it’s always delicious. Add homemade coleslaw, great conversation, and a beautiful summer evening by the lake, and you’ve got everything that makes this club so special.

A huge thank you to everyone who organized the tournament, volunteered their time, cooked for the crowd, and helped make another great community event possible.

These are the traditions that keep people coming back year after year.
