My grandfather was an avid fisherman and built a cabin on Jan Lake in Northern Saskatchewan, 50 miles west of Flin Flon, Manitoba. The city of Flin Flon was named after Josiah Flintabbatey Flonatin. Here’s a picture of him shown below.
It took our family about 20 hours to drive from our home to Flin Flon and it was such a welcome sight to see the statue of Flintabbatey Flonatin and know we were almost at our destination! I have so many fond memories of the several weeks I spent at Jan Lake during the summers of my youth. There were Walleye and Northern Pike in Jan Lake. We always hoped to catch the Walleye. My Grandpa did indeed wear a fishing vest like you can see below. There were never fish in his fishing vest, however. 🙂
I love the Gone Fishing Bundle, but would buy it just to get the “Happy Retirement” stamp.
Video and Free Tutorial pdf
Here’s my video with measurements and directions to make this card. Here’s a free pdf to make the same fun fold, but not a tackle box. If you subscribe to my blog here, I give a free tutorial with every newsletter. You can order from my online store and see all the products I used to make this card at the bottom of this post.
