Hello Friends,

After this long winter, who isn't ready for a little open water, and a shore lunch? After the winter we've had here in Minnesota, we're really looking forward to welcoming you back to Tetu Island Lodge for the 2011 season!

It's been a busy winter for us. Ed has been traveling to sports shows throughout the Midwest, and is looking forward to heading north around May 1st.

We are excited for the coming season.  After getting the generator started, Ed will get the lodge and office open. Then, he will start re-building the docks to make them more user-friendly for arrivals and landing boats. He will also be doing some updating in a few of the cabins, and around the grounds.

We are expecting to have most of last year's staff back this season, along with a few guides who have been with us in the past. We feel that this is a benefit to our guests. Our well-trained staff knows how to take care of guests and deliver the service you've come to expect.

Water levels are expected to be higher at the beginning of the year, given the amount of snowfall this winter, but not to worry. Tetu is on a controlled system that doesn't allow the water to get too high, or too low.

Thankfully, our bookings are ahead of last year at this time. We do have some additional openings during peak fishing times, so don't hesitate to call us to schedule your trip to Tetu Lodge. Also, if you can refer a new guest that books a trip with us, we will give you a 10 percent discount on your trip in 2011 or 2012. Talk to your friends and tell them about the great times you've had at our resort. We love referrals, and are thankful for every one of them. Please let us know if you need additional brochures to pass on to your friends. We'll ship them out to you ASAP!

Don't forget to follow us on Facebook. That is the best way to keep up on the fishing reports, weather, and the latest news from Tetu.

We're looking forward to seeing old and new friends this summer at Tetu Island Lodge! Thank you for your business.
