BWCA Smallmouth Fishing Trip

Report


We took a trip with six of us this past June. We had a great campsite on Alpine Lake. Took us about 3 hours to get out there and we stayed for five days. It was pretty cold most nights but it was worth it because there were zero bugs. Fishing was incredible. We caught countless smallmouth and got into some walleye and northerns as well. Here's a video I put together of the highlights of the trip!
