This looks like your second topic post. Do some research and you will find some lakes. Also, become a member and people would probably head you in the right direction.

Zwater: "shock: "minnesota DNR LAKEFINDER is a nice tool , but for BWCA lakes they can be a bit vague , a few havent been netted for more than a couple decades- time of year-how much time was spent on any given lake by the survey crew , a few variables example 1 survey only netted 3 smaller lake trout, on a spring trip my group did i quit counting after 30 lakers. definitely a place to start and i dont mind sharing some personal experiences on certain BW lakes unless it's a brook trout lake ;)"



Nice. So then tell the lake where you caught all the Lakers. It's not your brook trout lake."
i'll share off line , some of fishing can be good timing , on this particular trip ice had just gone off and lakers were in 5'15' a real no brainer.
one member i'm chatting with now is interested in a lake that hasn't been net surveyed since 1978 , so there isnt much info there to go on.

Hello! I am going up last weekend in September. Trying to finalize an entry point within the next few days. What is your favorite lake to fish / have done the best? I have done well on Disappointment and Grace (walleyes & smallies).

I am looking for some new lakes that have been proven to have good #'s of walleyes and smallies. I have entered from Sawbill, Snowbank and Brule so I'm looking for a different entry point. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I like the ones with fish in them. I like a few up in the Sawbill area.

You can’t go wrong entering any of the entry points along the Echo Trail.
