Blinsider Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 My family is going to be headed to Birch Lake near Babbitt, MN in late June for a week on a houseboat. This trip is a graduation present for our oldest and I am hoping to make it a week to remember. I would appreciate any advice ranging from fishing locations, bait, suggested lures, and even sites to see on the lake. I have done a lot of searching on Google with the hope of finding someone who maybe spent a week on a houseboat on Birch but not a lot of luck. I have about a month to prepare for the trip so I greatly appreciate everyone input. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Almquist Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I can't help you with spots but I do know it is a very good fishing lake. I am sure the people at the resort can help you get on some fish or at least a decent spot to park and fish right off the houseboat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBMasterAngler Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Are there smallmouths in this lake? I checked lake finder and the assessment didn't show any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinsider Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Thanks for the input. I have read a few places to use bright colored jibs and a lot about minnows. I recently bought the Navionics App for my phone but there are only a couple fish marking on the lake. I am hoping to find some good fishing spots in the bays where I can anchor over night and do some fishing earlier morning from the houseboat.
