Smallmouth, pike, walley and anything else. If you have any info please let me know. Thanks
    Nothing wrong with sleeping in TENTS.

    I've done a few different trips.........Fly in Cabin. Fly in Paddle Out, Paddle In, Paddle Out, etc, etc.

    For a really GREAT trip that fits your bill, how about a Hybrid Camping Trip. Zups offers a "basecamp" type trip where you're in screen tents on their island, on LLC. They provide small 25hp boats, and access to the Boundary Waters. The Screen tents all have cots, and propane heat, etc, etc. I believe they also have an option with food, but I'm not completely sure. I do have buddies who have done this multiple times.

    I did a flyin trip a few years ago, and was stircrazy after the first 2 days. On most flying trips, those lakes get POUNDED. You will catch fish, but nothing near what you will catch in the area outside of flying lakes.

    Also, if the flyin lake isn't really, REALLY BIG, you may get "bored".....we did. We were on a 5000 acre lake when we did the flyin trip and after 2 days we had the lake figured out.

    If you still have my phone number, give me a ring.

    Later,

    If they are good friends, tell em to stay home. How could anyone do that to someone. Imagine how they will feel a couple of years later, when they start remembering those giant pike, small mouths to numerous to count, ending the day with a great meal, cooked by someone who knows how, and a couple cans or bottles of molsons,and needing to do it again the next day.Thank you for the quick service on the boat, worked perfectly.I'd opt for either rainy lake or lake of the woods, the outfitters on those lakes have anything you could possibly wish for, Heck they even have house boats.If that lottery ticket ever comes in for me, I'd go back in a heart beat.
