Report
We had a great trip to Fourtown this year. Fishing was pretty good as well. We go for walleye, and were able to have full fish meals each day. Found a couple of nice spots on the north end of the lake. We did walk the canoes up the creek from Mudro to Fourtown and it was not too bad. The used the portage on the way back and it is not the easiest of portages. Some tricky steps and lots of ups and downs.
