cyclones30: "Go in at 22/23 and head anywhere. Basswood Lake, Basswood River below any of the falls, Crooked Lake, heck even Boot, Fairy, Beartrap, etc. All reachable in a day depending on how fast you are or how far you want to go. "
Big fan of Beartrap here. Dead end, one camp site - it'll be quiet if it's yours, and end of September, chances are reasonable. We've done well on 'eyes and smallies in September there.
