Folks say there are some nice sized lakers in Cirrus. No portable downrigger on this trip. Of course, I am still after that 13 lb. trophy walleye … maybe this trip ! |

I used a Cannon Portable Downrigger with A 4 lb. ball to catch this nice laker on a northern Manitoba lake. I used a 6 inch blue/ chrome dimpled daredevil trolling near the bottom in 105 ft of water. Heck, this pic was taken over 30 years ago. Many moons ago. |

Yogi, best of luck to you as well and enjoy the trip. I’ll report back. Been fishing sag 1-2 days a year for the last 4 years or so and haven’t scratched the surface. Went all in this year and hired a guide for the first day. Hoping that gives us some confidence for the rest of the week. |

I'm staying in a cabin on Shagawa. Buddy just canceled on me so I'll be winging it.. I have a P.P. Basswood and a Snowbank. I also have a Day use Seagull but might cancel that because of buddy canceling. I'm gonna try a few lakes south of Ely this year. Crescent and Dumbell. Hope you have a great trip.. Send pics. |

Enjoy your trip. We’ll be overlapping as usual but we decided to spend the whole trip on Saganaga this time around. We’ve always done day trips but I’m tired of missing the low-light bite windows so we’re changing it up this year and staying in a cabin on the Canadian side. |
