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.

Berniece off of Poohbah, no name lake south west of Berniece,

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
