One week to go before permits.....

We are well aware that life will be busier on Snowbank/Disappointment... but which lake(s) do you suspect to have the better fishing in June?

Any other pro's cons to consider?

Paddling across Snowbank vs. paddling across Burntside....

For fishing in June I would go to Crab and Cummings. The Smallmouth will just getting shallow and the top water bit should be good. Although, there are not many walleye on these lakes. You already said Disappointment will be busy. I think that is how it got it's name.

If it looks like you will have some windy conditions on Burnside I recommend you put in on the south end. This is general a safer paddle if the wind comes up and you don't have to worry much about the conditions getting out. The route is protected most of the way. A while back, I ended upside down in the middle of Burnside in May when trying to cross from the west side landing.

I can tell you about a few sites on Crab and Cummings if you decide to go there. Only know 1 site on Disappointment.

It's been a long time since we were on Snowbank / Disappointment and I've never been on Crab / Cummings. A lot of people worry about the wind being a huge issue on Snowbank which it can be but if getting to Disappointment is your goal you can take the somewhat sheltered route through Parent. As far as Disappointment goes, my one trip through there was not real great. We wrapping up a loop from Lake One in which we had only seen a few people the few days before getting to Disappointment. Then we got a dose of the realities of camping on a lake very near an entry, only one not very nice site open, lots of trash and the constant humming of motors on Snowbank. We were lucky and got a beautiful open site on Parent the next night. Like I said previously, I've never been to Cummings but I'd give it a shot before I ever went to Disappointment again.

Thanks Gents for your feedback. 99% Leaning towards Crab/Cummings.

Crab, Cummings, Otter easy choice over Dissapointment.
You will enjoy lesser crowd and decent fishing. Check out Neewin and beyond for tremendous day trip.
