I will be going on my 3rd trip into BWCA the first week of june this year at EP 32. I will be going with my sister who is a first timer but has some basic fishing experience. I myself am still somewhat of a beginner but I have all the basic gear, lures, etc (probably too many lures) . My first two trips (one in august, one in mid june) I had some success but I have mainly caught bass and a few northerns. I primarily use the TGO method (love it).

Was hoping to find some walleye this time. Anyone know how that area of the river is for walleye in early June? I plan to use TGO but am open to other suggestions. I've heard near rapids can be productive. We could also head down to Gabbro but we have just 3 nights so we will be base camping somewhere for sure.

Thanks!

Orange or pink 1/8 or 1/4 jig. Use rainbows in June, leeches in August. Just bounce them off the bottom.

Good luck!

jigs and leeches worked for us in mid june last year. Fish above and below rapids.
