Alright guys my last video was just a warm-up. Here I am out at Newell getting into some nice Walleye and a couple Pike just before the snow hit.

Also does anyone know why Rolling Hills Reservoir closes early for the season?

When I asked at the campground they said that its to slow to keep the campground open after Sept long weekend and there is to much vandalism for them to leave the gates unlocked. They also said that once they shut the canals down you can't launch a boat. I am not sure that I believe either of these reasons, as all they need to do is lock everything up at the campground and that launch is plenty long for the 3'- 4' drop in water level that the lake see's.

Why don’t you go over to the north end ant the resort. Launch is open year round. Launch your boat in November if you like.

Default Missing Boater on Newell???

By Brooks Bulletin Editor -October 8, 2019

SANDRA M STANWAY
Brooks Bulletin

As of Monday morning search and rescue workers had still not located a Calgary man who was reported missing on Lake Newell on Saturday night.
Police and other First Responders, including the RCMP helicopter from Edmonton and the Calgary Police HAWCS helicopter had spent most of the weekend in and around the lake searching for the overdue boater.
Brooks RCMP Sgt. Bruce McDonald said police received the call of an overdue boater at about 8:15 p.m. and HAWCS was called in to assist a short time later. HAWCS searched for about an hour before returning to Calgary. The search resumed at first light on Sunday.
“On Sunday morning we initiated an extensive ground and water search,” he said.
Searchers did find an unoccupied boat washed up on shore.
On Sunday searchers included firefighters from Brooks, Vulcan County, the South Eastern Alberta Search and Rescue team from Medicine Hat and Alberta Conservation as well as the RCMP and the HAWCS and RCMP helicopters.
The search resumed Monday morning.
No other information on the missing boater is being released.

That lake has taken its fair share. If not the most lives in Any Alberta lake.
It’s big it can get bad and it happens fast.
