It was a slow year according to the guides at Camp Quetico. Lake levels were very high, and they had a cold summer. Weed growth was very sparse and the fish were scattered. Fishing was good though, Guess I had better companions.

Takes a bit of time to learn those lakes. Sattelite imagery helps if it is a clear water lake. It can show some of of the better points and some of the offshore rock piles. Won't help you on a tanic stained water lake. Electronics help on those. Sometimes you find a reef with your prop! We had 5 in our party. Took 3 guides, and 3 boats out on 3 different lakes our first 3 days. Did the next 4 days on our own. Depending on the destination we would tow in a bigger boat with  a 50hp, or grab some 15hp motors and a gas cans to load on a remotely stationed boat. Only fished 7 days, hit 6 different lakes, and they had boats on 34 more lakes.

Think all caught at least one 20"+ smallmouth, abundant 12-18" smallmouth. Didn't really fish Walleye except for small lunch fish. Best was around the 27-28" mark, did not measure just let it go. Had some fun with the pike but nothing over 3' long landed. Buddy had a 4' plus monster pike blow his WTD plug out of the water. Did have some fly rod fun with my 9wt. Remote lake, boated in on a bigger lake with 2 guide boats and a canoe. Hauled the canoe and or gear up the outlet of the smaller lake with two waiting boats w motors. 75' vertical up slick granite to the middle lake. Dan & Scott took the canoe further up to another lake, and 3 of us shared the middle lake in the two motor boats. Lots of dumb bass & pike up there. Ate everything you tossed even with the motor running.
