Christmas and Associates are providing a fully finished log cabin for 5-days during the 2009 fishing season.  Spend the day surrounded by the Northeast’s finest trout, pike, and bass fishing and the night reliving the day’s adventures in front of the fireplace.

You will stay at one of Christmas and Associates’ Chain of the Lakes fully furnished log cabins located in Camden, NY also known as the Tug Hill region which is rated one of the best recreational regions in New York. During your stay you will be able to fish for bass in an on-site pond, pike fishing in the area rivers and trout fishing in the nearby streams.

Tred Barta, host of The Best and Worst of Tred Barta on Versus is also a fan of Christmas and Associates as well, here is what he had to say about the Chain of the Lakes; “Christmas & Associates have found their niche in an area of the state that I had never even heard of…The Tug Hill Plateau. It’s one of the best kept secrets of avid outdoor enthusiasts and, after visiting, I now know why. It is considered one of the best recreational regions in the state with four-season outdoor opportunities. Abundant forests & streams; amazing fishing, hunting, and top-notch ATV and snowmobile trails. They even enjoy a two month hunting season and the best fishable waters in the state within just a few miles from each of their quality properties.” 

If it’s good enough for Tred to endorse its good enough for me! Unfortunately there can only be one winner. If you’re not lucky enough to win this fabulous prize, you can still have the ultimate fishing adventure; contact Christmas and Associates where they will provide you with all the comforts of home in this brand new, completely outfitted, large camp with every detail carefully and thoroughly planned. Listen to the quiet while enjoying your morning coffee on the spacious front porch, which provides a spectacular view of on-site ponds. Or sit and warm your toes by the woodstove after a long day on the land and share the day’s stories with your fishing buddies. Good luck!
