First time poster here. I haven't been to the bwca since I was a teen in scouts. I live in Kansas and im planning on doing a 7 day solo base camp on crocodile lake. I will be going in thru east bearskin on the 28th this month. Looking for any advise on this adventure as I am wanting to fish and relax mostly. Any advice is welcome.

It is a beautiful lake with lots of eater sized walleyes and some very nice perch . Bring some leeches .

Have a great time.
Crocodile is on my list to go fish on a day trip.
I’m also clad to see it is officially listed as accessible from east bearskin or crocodile entry.

Hi, dustygood, I am planning a similar trip to yours in 2020. Same time frame, same length. Now that you have been there, do you have any info to share?

This is one lake that I have always wanted to go to. Seems like it would be a more quiet area.

Was there a few years ago and didn't see a soul in the 4 nights we stayed at the far east camp. It was around Memorial Day. We fried perch and some small wallies 3 times mostly off leeches and crawlers.

It was absolutely gorgeous! The lake is pretty shallow so use shallow crankbaits along the shore that is in the sun the longest. A group of guys hooked me up with a lure and it worked like a charm. I definitely want to dothat trip again!
