cowdoc	02/01/2017 07:44PM Not sure you can paddle into Rocky and Ivory....I think those are bushwacks. I've never tried, but I've been in the area and never heard of a route in.
CedricB	01/31/2017 07:02PM quote cowdoc: "we went into Paddle last August. Short pull through over the rocks (6 inches of water). Suppose to hold walleyes. We did some jigging on some drop offs and then the the boys got bored and explored the creek in the NW corner." Thanks, cowdoc

CedricB	01/31/2017 05:20PM quote boonie: "Paddle is easily accessible from Canoe - just a short walk-through - and there are some northerns there." Thanks for the info boonie
CedricB	01/31/2017 05:17PM quote Grandma L: "I just studied the maps a little. They look to be pretty shallow - (10 ft. or less on some) Is that enought to sustain fish over winter? And, they don't look too easy to gain access. Maybe off the hiking trail down the steep grade into Rocky and via the creek (if there is enough water) into Table and Bench from Pine. Could be an adventure and a lot of work!" Thanks, Grandma L

CedricB	01/31/2017 01:30PM I asked in fishing forum but not much info. I was wondering if the small lakes like: Ivory, Rocky, paddle, table,and Bench are accessible by canoe or portage and are they worth fishing or exploring?
