In the beginning stages of planning solo a grand marais side hunting and fishing canoe trip. Going to be bringing a single shot twenty gauge that was my dads, a medium light spinner and a medium heavy spinning rod and an 8wt fly rod. Was wondering if anyone had any novice friendly loops or lakes with campsites that would be friendly for both fishing and small game hunting like grouse, squirrels and rabbits. Appreciate everyone’s input in advance.

I’m not familiar with the east side of the Bwca, but I’ve had the most success hunting on the portages-especially in transition areas of the forest. I’d find a small lake that I could do a lot of day trips that included many portages. This last fall I walked one portage 3 or 4 time throughout the day and I ended up with my limit by the end of the day.
