For the last three years, Rich Hohne of Skwala has been part of the crew for the annual Beaver Island trip. Honestly, the weather has sucked most of all three years. Maybe the worst was this year since spring was so late to arrive and Lake Michigan never warmed up from the low 40's the entire week we were there. It's been tough and made worse that this was the third year of getting kicked in the pants.
Through it all, we've had a great time and in these two articles in the Skwala Lounge, you'll get Rich's take on the island. He's one of the good ones since he never complains and realizes that its the breaks from fishing around a bunch of islands in the middle of an inland "ocean".

And, I planned for a little bit of everything with my "Beaver Island Kit", which included...
Check out the Skwala website and if you have any questions about their gear, send me an email. I'm happy to discuss my opinions on the various pieces that I've worn for the past couple of years.
