I am doing a 15 day loop in the first half of September and would like to catch a largemouth. I will be going through Brent Lake and other lakes in that area. Can anyone put me onto a lake that has largemouth? I don’t need your secret spot but a little help would be appreciated. Thanks.

James and Gratton are both good lakes for LMB in that area. I caught a largemouth in Conmee a couple years ago as well. Not known as a largemouth lake, but they're in there.

Paulene as mentioned, Ballard off of Darky, the shallower area of elk (northern Bay),
The 2 lakes in between Brent and Suzanette to the east of the northern bay of central Brent, Newt and little Newt. Probably a lot of others but that’s been my success personally.

I can vouch for those two lakes east of Brent. One is a short bushwack in, but worth the effort.

Definitely hit Paulene. My wife did catch one largemouth on Brent earlier this month.

Thank you, anglers. You are the best. I have the lakes marked on my map with an “L” and will get to a bunch of them. Hopefully I can post a photo of a fattie.

In addition to all the responses by bwca.com members, this is a good reference: Quetico Fishes by E. J. Crossman, 1976. I don't know if there are additional, more updated published references but this is a good start. Found a website for free download. Crossman's Quetico Fishes
