Yes Bay Lodge Blog Report-April 26, 2019

The summer is creeping up faster than ever as we begin to prepare! It still feels like winter around here with temps sticking around 37 to 40 degrees so its hard to imagine that summer is that close. The air still has a winter smell to it on top of getting a couple snow flurries here and there. The state has been forecasting high producing Salmon runs this year so we are all very excited to see how the fishing will transpire. In the next couple of weeks we have a big announcement so be sure to stay tuned to all of our platforms: YBL Blog, Instagram, and Facebook...it's sure to get everyone excited...STAY TUNED!

Yes Bay Lodge Winter Blog Report-January 6, 2019

AS THE NEW YEAR BEGINS...

The 2019 year is here and has started off with a bang! As most of you know, Nicky and I welcomed Stella Beth Martinez into the world back in October so we have been quite busy with the little one. We are very excited for the upcoming summer to be able to introduce her to the lodge and the unique life we live. With a new baby in the mix, we had to re-configure our marketing plan for the season so Mr. Blackfly himself is officially on the road and headed to Denver, Colorado to kick off our first show of the 2019 year. Be sure to come by the booth (#2411C) and say hello, or better yet, book your adventure to Yes Bay Lodge this summer! Our caretakers Dewey and Jeff (some of you may know him as Lucky) have been busy as ever keeping the bay cleared of ice, cutting & milling wood, and the day to day chores that come with winter time. Not much snow yet for them but the temperatures have been frigid with 18 degrees and dropping...BRRRRRRRR!!! Be sure to stay tuned to our winter updates and our marketing schedule because we may be in a city near you. Be sure to check out the photos...
