Lundholm & Bloede- The Lewis and Clark of Pawistik
They live in two different states, but they have one thing definitely in common. They both love coming to the lodge and fishing the river, and they’ve been doing just that for very many years. And like the famous American explorers, they have discovered and mapped their territory from end to end.
