Eight inveterate fishermen (and women) from CVOA once again enjoyed great fishing during this year's sixth annual trip to the Real Masse' hunting and fishing resort at St. Zenon, Quebec, about 90 miles north of Montreal.

Led by Joe Lessard, who has coordinated the event since its inception, the trip to the 10-square-mile outdoor paradise – laced with dozens of lakes teeming with trout – lived up to all its expectations.

Everyone got their limit and everyone gained weight, thanks to the home cooking of Real Masse and his family who run the resort. Joe says it was such a success that he's already booked next year's trip – July 8th through the 12th.

Believe me, as one who has been there a couple of times, put it in your calendar now. You won't regret it.
