Have you considered smaller lakes, with access to a bigger one if the wind is down? You could stay on Wind or Good or Indiana, for example, and head to Basswood if the weather cooperated. If it was windy or otherwise unpleasant, the smaller lakes would offer more shelter.
Just a thought, anyways. "
x2 if you get a windy day on Brule you may not go anywhere that day
