TomT	06/27/2020 05:35PM Very nice report I enjoyed it. I couldn't imagine using an 8 ft. kayak in the BW though. And that's a real nice laker at the very end of the report. Thanks for the write up and pics.
straighthairedcurly	06/27/2020 07:02AM We were on the portage between Missing Link and Snipe 4 times last summer. 3 out of the 4 times, someone stopped me and asked if I knew where the portage to Mavis was located. With that many people looking, you would think it would be a little more obvious. I don't think any of them found it, though. I watched the video and at least now I know to tell them to look for that big rock.

ponddigger	06/25/2020 05:10PM I saw that someone had been to Mavis this spring, but I wasn't able to identify the end of the portage from the lake. The DNR stocking report mentioned stocking 1000 brookies in 2018, and I saw lots of small fish on my finder. I just didn't seem to have any luck catching anything. That trail sure would have been nice to spot!

HangLoose	06/25/2020 03:33PM Great trip report. I do like the look of a burn area also. The regeneration is amazing. Nice job finding a few Lakers. I hate to tell you this but there is a fairly well worn portage trail from Missing Link to Mavis. It isn't a highway but it certainly is not a bushwack. Here is a link to a YouTube video starting at Mavis and ending at Missing Link. Mavis Portage The DNR stocked Brookies in Mavis as recently as 2013. I have reliable information that those Brookies are still in there. You'll get 'em next time.
