Moosealicious,
Welcome, try planning to start early getting to Prairie Portage, the later you get there the more people in line in front of you. You might consider a tow if you can afford one. North Bay has a reputation for good fishing, but don't camp on that first island after the Burke portage. It has a rep. for bears.
I haven't been on the rest of your route, but I'm sure someone has.
Have a great trip! Catch one of those Big Northerns! Take lots of pictures.
