Beautiful lake that has a tough portage coming in from Hanson that kicked our butts on a 90 degree day. But don't let that scare you. |

I'm looking for a good lake that has the following characteristics: 1. Walleye and Lake Trout 2. Stained water for biomass and better daytime fishing 3. Not in a burn down 4. Small to mid size -brother has a bad shoulder and doesnt want to fight huge waves all week if theres wind. 6. Open to BWCA or Q This is a special trip for me with my twin brother, we are getting older and he doesn't get away from the family very often. We used to go every year. Not sure how many more of these there will be. Appreciate the help finding a great lake. Really open to options if nothing fits the bill exactly. Thanks in advance! |

You might consider Cherry Lake? Which fits your criteria and is close enough to the South Arm of Knife (which provides awesome fishing opportunities for all species if the weather cooperates) for a doable day trip. Lots of good lake trout options in that area on smaller lakes - Amoeber, Ester, Rabbitt, Sema etc. |

TuscaroraBorealis: "Welcome to bwca.com! My outfitter last year spoke highly of Cherry Lake. Right nearby is...Lake of the Clouds? I forget the name though a bit north of Cherry Lake is a lake which is very high elevation & has no water flowing into it, a rarity in the BWCA |
