What is your favorite multi-species lake, either BWCA or Quetico? Already planning a trip next year that will be focusing on fishing and I'd like a chance to catch all 4 main species. Probably 6 nights I'd prefer a long travel day and then base camp with the possibility of day trips to other lakes. I've done 3 trips to BWCA none to Quetico. So if you had one lake to pick just for fishing where would you go and when? I'll be able to go anytime from the 2nd week of June until the 1st week of September.

Knife and Thomas come to mind.... others also.

late May / early June is tough to beat.

The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.

Knife is an awesome multi-specifies fishery. But in one day, my brother caught seven different species on the Boulder River!

Knife was on my list, I did a trip there once and caught tons of smallies and pike and even a laker but only one walleye. I've read several articles over the years that have mentioned Poohbah and Conmee so maybe I should try out Quetico next year.
