So you're planning you, or your family's vacation for '09. Good. The early bird always gets the worm. Let us also hope the fish will! My name is Mike, and I am on assignment from Associated Content, to bring you the top 5 fishing destinations for the summer of 2009.

#5. Cragun's Resort and Hotel on Gull Lake, 11000 Craguns Drive • Brainerd, Minnesota

If you're craving a little variety in your choices of fishing packages, look no further than Cragun's Resort and Hotel. Whether to you decide to "Stay and Fish", take a "Family Fishing Trip", or head out for a "Muskie Adventure", Cragun will provide you with a quality fishing experience at a reasonable price. One major advantage Cragun has against competing fishing resorts, is the use of guide service, large comfortable boats and state of the art fishing equipment, leaving you to do only what you came to do..... FISH!!

#4. Ontario Summer Resort Travel 2009

When we think of Canada, many things may come to mind, but only one thing is on the mind of the hungry........ FISH!! And while you may not be able to travel across the sea, you can still go international with our neighbors up north in Ontario. I have chose Ontario Summer Resort Travel 2009's website for one specific reason.... they have it all! If you are sure of one thing, your starting point (Ontario) Ontario Summer Resort Travel 09 will be able to point you in the direction of many great destinations within the Ontario area. Keep in that seat buddy!! Check out the full list at: http://www.400eleven.com/getaways-summer.html

#3. Old Bahama Bay

First off, this site is only 64 miles from the Florida coast, and who doesn't love knowing the ocean is only an hour away? Second, this place is not only beautiful, but affordable! the average rate is a mere 200$ per night! Third, they even have a place for you and your life-time fishing buddy to be wed at, bare-foot, right on the beach!!

#2. River View Cabins

Riverview Cabins is Located on the Mississippi River halfway between La Crosse and Prairie du Chien on the scenic Great River Road (Hwy. 35). This place is a great family destination, and the fish you can catch here are even greater. This area has been well-known for it's bountiful collection of catfish, walleye, and bass. What I like most about Riverview Cabins, is it's intimate setting nestled in the heart of nature. However, being in nature doesn't mean you will have to struggle at Riverview, each cabin is equipped with a full kitchen, fresh linen, and even cable T.V.!!
If you're looking for an affordable family get-away, with some great fish TA boot, you need to visit River View.

#1. Your home-town. Anywhere, USA.

Call me a corn-ball, but for me, there is no place like home. A good fishing trip around your hometown is a great way to relax. Planning vacations can be a hassle, filled with stress and hard decision making. The whole point of fishing is to relax! So grab a beer, grab a buddy, and get in the damn boat!
