Geo,
Thank you for the reply. Hopefully we will be able to get out with the boat again before the eoy? We will be out together 8-10 more times on the pond so we are not done yet. Also, we used to make 4-5 trips a year to Boggs to bluegill fish and since it has declined we decided this year to spend a day on dogwood and that was the only time I have been there. I am not looking for anyones spots just some general information about the lake.

I went to your site and didn't spend a lot of time there but we too have been to the Ely/BWCA multiple times in the past and we currently cross the border at I/Falls and spend the 1st week in June on LOTW. Like you we primarily fish for smallmouth on our trip but we catch about everything. The neatest thing about the trip this year(besides spending it with my father) the smallouth were biting topwater baits,
COOL!!!!!!!! I would be happy to share stories if you want.

Thanks,Max
